I have been working from home this morning and had SSN on in the background and I have yet to hear them mention the conduct of the biggest arse on telly and his gimpy sidekick AKA Andy 'I know everything but am too scared to be a manager' Gray and Richard 'Bubbles' Keys

Arrogant knobs comments

I am so fed up with Andy Gray getting ripped into the ref's and lino's because they (the media) are scared to comment on the players and managers incase they get the Fergie tretment (aint talked to the Beeb since they questioned his wee boy about 10 years ago) for daring to point out the effin obvious.

I hope the muppets get bagged.

Yep, sack the pair of them. Never liked Andy Gray, or Keys. It is time to freshen up the format with some presenters who are a bit more up to date.

Will they get rid of them like they did when Rodney Marsh made the comments/joke about the Toonarmy.

I very much doubt it. :(

The ironic thing is the female lino got her call on the goal spot on. I have noticed that Gray is becoming more obnoxious regarding the refs and officials each week. He hides behind his big watch and touch screen telly but when you look at him he is no better than Big Ron or Rodney Marsh.

They both have disdain for women in football and I honestly think their positions are now untenable.

Richard Keys would be no loss. Not sure many people understand the off side laws, with active, inactive players. :D :D

Need to go back to old rules. If you are 'inactive' you shouldn't be on the pitch in the first place. :(

Get rid of both. They were both fine when Sky first started broadcasting the Premiership, but the game has now moved on so Sky really do need some younger and more insightful pundits. Ben Shepherd would be perfect for the presenter position, and then Jamie Redknapp for Andy Gray's role. They really need to make more use of recently retired ex-pros! Think they should line-up the old Reading player Glen Little for a punditry role as have seen him on the tv a few times and heard him on the radio and he's pretty funny and knows what he's talking about.

I dont like either of them so for me they could get rid of them both.

Andy Gray is the most biast commentator anyway he, as others have said, wont say a word against the big teams incase he gets the treatment from the managers.

Time for a change sky...

Yes, Blakey is very amusing.

I'm sure Ron Atkinson said sorry too. It didn't stop him gettng sacked, and it shouldn't stop these two either.

Keys has history any way, he has been caught out by the same microphone trick before. Last time it was over Theo Walcott, and the time before about a Scotland Faroe Islands footy match.

Time to go.

I can't understand how it got out.

It happened off air didn't it? Surely the production team should really have burried it and have a quiet word with them to be more careful.

they shouldn't have said it but it was no worse than what goes on in the pub day in day out.
