Very good thoughtful piece agree with every word~clap ~clap ~clap

Various mainstream Television adverts are now clearly ‘Sexist'(Bull5hit Word) towards MEN, Nowadays a lot of people are offended simply because they choose to be. As they say ‘Down Under’ Build a bridge and get over it, Personally I absolutely hate ‘Sky TV’ so their moronic PC sackings!!! have only reinforced my views about them,

Herbie…….Brilliant my son.Your views are shared by many.I would just like to say one thing about Mr Keys.He is an arrogant,chavonistic.talentless,smallminded knob,who knows f*** all about football.If this is logged i suppose i will end up in court…..But i am prepared to take my punishment in Holloway HMP without regret.
By the way Herb i have booked you a spot at Hyde Park Corner this Sunday to give everyone a chance to hear your views….Go for it mate……Take care you old bugger.~shh ~shh ~shh ~shh ~shh

Wise words indeed Herbie. There is clearly a hidden agenda here.
Watched Top Gear the other day with John Bishop the guest, at the end the Porshe on set had no wheels on,was propped up on bricks and Clarkson said “I knew this would happen when we had a scouser on the show”.
This to me was much worse than the Sky incident if you took it any other way than light hearted banter.
Keys and Gray off mic had a bit of a go, just like many others would have down the pub. Its a long standing joke about women and the offside rule. After the apology the matter should have been closed, the fact that it was not, clearly shows that other issues came into play IMO.
Sky profits up today BTW as more of you are subscribing so clearly whatever agenda is being followed some are getting very rich on it.

Why did this even make the news? The real headline was:

“SHOCKER: Two blokes at football match banter about competence of match official”

I did think Sky’s football coverage was in need of freshening up, though – guess this is a cheap way of doing it.

C’mon Gary, they linked her competence to her gender, which is rather different.

Would you say someone was crap at her job because she was a woman at your work place?

gray got the sack for pervin at a female sports reader,which is totally different from banter about women not knowing the offside rule.

Good stuff herbs ~clap ~clap

I have just switched Sky News on and that obnoxious cow Kay Burley is wearing her blue Murdoch frock again ! some poor sod has to smash that every now and again !! ~sick News corp / News International are corrupt to the core , it also seems they have a certain senior met officer in their back pocket aswell ~think

No coincedence Andy Gray was sueing his employers for alleged phoned tapping thus he was stitched up , make your own minds up !

Oh and there is the Andy Coulson David Cameron connection …… W@****s the pair of em !!!

Glad i got that off me chest !

~clap ~clap

I have the misfortune to have to sit through ‘Loose Women’ now and again with the ‘better half’. They seem to spend the majority of their show taking the p**s out of us blokes and they get nominated for a tv award????

Seems you can’t be a victim of racism if you’re white and you can’t be a victim of sexism if you’re male.

Tough life being a white bloke nowadays, they won’t rest until they’ve hunted us to extinction .

Herbs cant wait for those long dark nites at stafford moor chatting about fishing and footie hope we dont keep dodge and milo awake too long into the night. I suppose we will have to put up with red army snoring.PS STILL PLENTY TOO RUN ON SKY MAKE BELIEVE STORIES

you can print what you like about my dragon of a mother in law herbie mate.lol

bit of a strange one this mate. ask yourself when did the offence occur? was it reported at the time? and why did sky not act at once???

the offence occured in december according to the news i cant say weather she reported it or if sky acted at once.they proberbly cant act at once because they would have to clear it with lawyers and with gray being at sky for so long she might have been afraid to report him.
i know if it had been one of my daughters i wouldn’t have liked it.this was totally different from banter amongst men it was directed at the lady who was stood near him.

If “being female has nowt to do with anything” then why did they say it was because she was a woman?

Its acceptable to say that someone is incompetent if they are incompetent. In most cases its wrong to say that the lack of competence is because they are a woman. Of course there will be exceptions to that, but understanding the offside rule is not one of them.

sorry does not wash mate. i know of nowhere that he would not have been suspended asap if reported. i agree with you re your girls i feel the same and im not in the slightest defending him. its the way its been done that worries me. smacks of creating a smokescreen to defelct real issue,s. like your phone being tapped, and our police force being in murdoch,s pocket. also the way everyone exept the guardian and the BBC are going out of there way to poo poo these alegations especialy talk sport who have gone overboard in there critism. what i cant work out is why a private conversation between two adults should cause their reporters such offence????????????????? unless of course murdoch told them too~sick

you make some valid points herbie especially about the smokescreen and murdock and the police.i still think they were right to sack him for what he said to the female presenter(cant remember her name) but then again i am biased i never liked andy gray.haha.

So, Sky Sports presenters make comments OFF AIR belittling women and are promptly sacked or forced to resign from there jobs, Yet we have a program called loose women who publicly point out mens shortcomings on a daily basis live on national tv, and they win a national award for it ?????? “whats that all about “?????

i agree herbie.sky have obviously been saving the clips of grey and the others incase they sue for wrongful dissmissal,but nothing is off air if you are in a studio and have a mic on.i stick by what i said earlier that he deserved the sack for the the way he spoke and leered at the femail presenter,the rest of what he said i think he would have got away with an apology.

its called cake and eat it feminism. they the women are exempt, can say what they want because there women, and its a well known fact men dont listen too them.trouble is nowadays 60% of men are also girly,s and they do get offended quite easily. all i can say is as my equal women should expect me to treat them the same as men thats called equality its what they strive for, but for some reason they only want to be equal when it suits and girly when it doesn,t. ask yourself one simple question. how many times have you seen a bloke broken down at the side of the road , where 3 women have stopped to push his car to safety?????. bet the answer is 100% never.when the answer reaches 50% they will truely be equal.

~clap ~clap ~clap Herbie….If any male stops to help a “Damsel” in distress on the side of the road in this day and age he is leaving himself wide open for massive trouble.Nowadays Men steer clear of stopping for the “weaker sex” in fear of allegations made against them.I personally will stop to help a Male driver in trouble,but never a woman….That is a terrible indictment of modern times,and is caused by the ilk of “loose women” on TV,and the female do-gooders who love the feel of “Mens Trousers” on their person.
Equality means equality on both sides,not more for one of them than tother.~naughty ~naughty ~naughty

What a pair of sexist w****** Andy Gray and Richard Keys are?.If she is up to date with the ironing,cleaning,the spuds peeled and her husbands sexual needs are truly fullfilled,then let her have a go at running the line for f*** sake.~shh ~shh ~shh ~shh ~shh ~naughty ~naughty ~naughty ~naughty

Would you say someone was crap at her job because she was a woman at your work place?

Why not?

the thing that makes me spew is the way rubbish like this ruins one time quality bbc programming.
i refer to question time on thursday evening, once a reasonable opportunity to see politicians squirm whilst dimbleby,the panel and audience attempted to tear them apart about important issues of the week.
this week we were subjected to 20 mins of phone tapping and 20 mins of andy gray.
with questions regarding the economy and state of the country etc left until it was too late at the end of the show.

utter tripe.

firstly, who is mr. keys? never herd of him until this week.
secondly, we have mens football for men and womens football for women only; no male players or officials. so why do we have female officials in the premiership?

ooops! sound like i am sexist, who is going to sack me from my job of cooking, cleaning, washing, looking after the kids etc. not the mrs. thats for sure.

are men making these comments/decisions because they are frightened of her in-doors?
