Knowing how will normally Sky deal with this, i'll be shocked if they keep their jobs tbh. Hugely embarrasing for the company and its values

  :sad1:


Thought so, next up......Mr keys :happy2:

Was listening to a radio phone in today.  People are cancelling their Sky subscriptions because of this.  Is the world going mad or what?
Not sure if Richard Keys will get the boot.  Apparantly, he rang the lineswoman today to apologise and compliment her on her boobs probably!  :laugh:

That either of these guys should be even reprimanded, let alone sacked, is shocking and outrageous imo.

This is PC gone mad. Both genders make 'gender comments' about each other - It's healthy. Any woman worth her salt who doesn't like such a comment would be better to say that it's these blokes who have a problem and she doesn't, and move on.

Storm in a tea-cup but it's outrageous if someone loses their livlihood over such trivia.

Did I miss something with this?
I thought she had a good game - she got all the big decisions right in my opinion. There's plenty of male Premiership lino's I'd take out of circulation before her.

We're at a point where if the male officials are that inconsistent at the highest level, then I'm all for women having a go. Probably get more respect than the likes of Mike Dean and Stuart Attwell  :grin:

It's hugely damaging for Sky's values to be associated with this sort of behaviour Robin.

They are still yet to decide Richard keys future. in due course it will be known.

Richard Keys, now there's a name from the past....

I once described a girl I had an encounter with at a school disco as having a fanny hairier than Richard Keys' back.

Bet it was Terry Waite's allotment!  Was it rusty red - Just like his bike!

This is laughable, it wasnt even on air and it was just a conversation between the too :confused:.

Sky could have delt with this more privately you know just like the conversation was but now they have had to sack there best commentator line-up for the big matches yeah well played :congrats:

Who will they replace them with that daft cow that commentates on MOTD no doubt :fighting:

Really though i think Sky have screwed themselves with this one. Why didnt they just keep it quiet ok if it was on air they'd have to be seen to be doing something about it but it wasnt.

....I'm thinking that Sky wouldn't be needing to present itself with such 'high values' if a certain Mr Murdoch hadn't been such a naughty boy.

What are these 'high values' anyway? The sort practiced in prudish bible-belt good old U S of A?

Murdoch is nothing to do with sky Robin, News corp are Murdoch run . The own shares in sky to the total of 39%.

The doomsday brothers are trying to buy sky back which is also being publicised  currently in the media.

Okay, Steve, (thanks for getting me up to speed on that) but what are these 'high values' which are mentioned? Bending over backwards to blindly worship at the altar of political correctness without any intelligent evaluation?

Its absolutely ridiculous that Sky have sacked their best commentator over private off air comments.
Surely now every football supporter who now gives the poor woman pelters for bad decisions is now walking the same tightrope.
Everyone has made comments about the opposite sex at some point as jokes,this PC nonsense has got out of hand.
I`m getting out I`m cancelling my Sky sports after the weekend ----hope I get a woman on the phone too :evilgrin:

A very very very sobering thought, Ladies and Gentlemen, but at this rate do you reckon there'll ever be a day when banter such as ours is outlawed as politically incorrect?

Unfortunately it seems to be going that way :scared:
