A meant to be off air remark, a remark that woukld have been said a million times before and will be repeated a million times more, A stereotypical remark with no malice. It's a storm in a teacup. Some people won't be happy until we are all robots.

no mate,it's called Political Correctness which seems to be tearing the heart out of a once proud nation - it's up to you lot in the uk to fight against it....

Yeah, let me be sexist, racist and homophobic without some twonk getting all uppity about it.

Maybe he just realises that this is an internet message board and is only a bit of fun?

As for the story itself, has anyone herad the rumour that a female Assistant Referee is going to explain the Equality Act to Andy Gray and Richard keys using condiments on the kitchen table.

nah mate,just use good old common sense

but if you want something to change then it's up to you to make it change not just sit there and watch the place deteriorate - when the french have a grievance they get out on the streets and tell the powers that be that it can't happen...Power to the people and all that...

Liverpool seem to be very good at rubbing people up the wrong way at the moment. Holloway has described Comolli as 'disgraceful' and refused to believe Kenny Dalgleigh had any input into their approach. Now Ajax have come out and asked for Comolli to stop being so disrespectful to them over Suarez.

Suarez is a far better player than Darren Bent who has just moved for £24m. You can imagine their disdain when he bids £12m for him despite him having 3 years left on his Ajax contract.

It all seems rather cynical. He seems to slime his way in with a ridiculously low bid whilst tapping up the player. The player then hands in a transfer request in order to pressure the club into selling. Charlie Adam fell for it but Holloway seems to have laughed that off.

It's going to be fascinating to see how desperate Liverpool get towards the end of the transfer window. No Europe will surely mean no Torres so they have work to do. Everton meanwhile seem to have the deckchairs out, no bids or rumours anywhere that I can see.

After Chelsea's win last night, a win for Utd tonight and city are suddenly looking over their shoulder at 4th rather than closing in on top spot. Hope we can sneak a win but we seem to struggle against teams who play a bit of football against us rather than put 10 behind the ball. Although this will hopefully leave Blackpool pretty open at the back.

Gray and Keys should have gone years ago. There not particularly great at their jobs and I think their easily replaceable. Thing is there in the Eddie and Stevo mould we're cos they've been there from the beginning and even though they talk mostly garbage, they have to stay!

I don't see why people are getting so bent out of shape regarding Liverpool's bids. How can a bid be "insulting" or "disrespectful"? It's a bid, reject it or accept. I'll tell you what is disrespectful, giving the ins and outs to every bid however little or great it is. Or using every second of tv airtime as a pedestal to complain of how persecuted they are by any club who makes a bid for their player.

Is it just me that's becoming bored of Ian Holloway's rants and moaning and saying the same fooking thing every post match interview. His valuation of Charlie Adam is laughable and completely over the top, the first few rants of the season where quite funny but now it's becoming quite boring.

No I was thinking the same thing when listening to him yesterday, like you say he just moans about the same thing every week and it's getting quite boring

Sorry to big graeme for not noticing the front page news about Keys and Gray burried down here in the bowels of the site

Given the current going rate for quality midfielders and strikers, Liverpool's offers are derisory, designed solely to turn the player's head, it smacks of arrogance and by no means are Liverpool the only club guilty of this. I am an admirer of small clubs punching above their weight, making the most of meagre resources and 'bigger' clubs who bid for their star players should give them the proper market value instead of trying to get them on the cheap or turn the players' head.

I just think Liverpool are scared to death of finishing below likkle old Blackpool so there buying the competition. As if Charlie Adam will get played every week at Liverpool anyway

he does seem to be becoming something of a caricature of himself, I think the thing that has really hacked them off is the press knowing about Adam banging in his request virtually as soon as it happened, which they appear to be pointing the finger in liverpools direction.

Obviously liverpool want to sign players as cheaply as possible, Blackpool (and Ajax) want as much as possible, that's business, and the end point will depend upon the needs of the respective clubs to reach a deal.

It really is, I'm glad I am not the only one thinking it. At first he was quite good as it was different and as a manager of a smaller club he wasn't prepared to be pushed into the background but now it's just boring. From never seeing him on TV he seems to have become some sort of expert on everything and everyone.

I'm now wondering what Sky's agenda is in regard to this. The original comments weren't broadcast, so it's come from an insider and the video of Gray and Burton adds nothing to the issue, the comments from Burton are nothing, so why has he been suspended? Why have Sky released that footage apart from attempting to embarrass Gray further? Any coincidence that Gray is threatening to sue the NOTW?

Both men have been revealed to have outdated and somewhat odious opinions in regard to women in football, they haven't attempted to force them on anyone, others have broadcast them. I'd be surprised to find that they are alone in their opinions, especially amongst 50+ year old men. An apology to the her should be enough. In fact I find the newspapers urge to find pictures of Ms Massey looking like a fruity young lady to put on their front pages just as distasteful, if not moreso.

Gray sacked

Talksport have just said Gray has been sacked by Sky for an off air comment said last December and not the most recent comments.

interesting that they reference December, and I wonder what will happen with Keys

If they've sacked Gray, surely that means Keys must go too? On these latest comments it's key, IMO, who is the worst offender.

If it's going back to comments in December, why not sack him then?

He hadn't threatened to sue their sister paper at that point...

Andy Gray asked Charlotte Jackson to "tuck his shirt in for him" back in December allegedly

Glad he's been sacked I think he's a crap commentator anyway TBH
