It would be f***ing incredible if they both get the sack. People have lost their jobs on telly for less.

And as well as being sexist, it's also grossly hypocritical. Andy Gray doesn't understand the offside rule.
 
Plenty of poor male officials, why not have a go at them instead, as far as I can see this woman hasn't made a bad call yet.

He really, really hated the fact that she got the offside call right yesterday.

It f***ing pained him. Combined with the fact that it actually benefitted his King Kenny and he sounded torn apart.
 
Big Ron got sacked for racist comments, Marsh got sacked for that Tsunami joke, McLintock got sacked for racist comments.

You can bet your life these two wont be punished. Bulletproof.

Like its been said, SKy need new blood. Get Dave Jones doing Keyes' job and get rid of Gray man.

The majority of times Gray goes against what the referee has done. Sky then engineer footage ie cut short to back up Gray. When he gets it wrong, he says technically it may have been offside but ...

anybody doubts about engineering, remember halloween, when chicken stamped on mensah. all the replays showed was mensah agrueing. when nolan leaning into players, them pair of comediens just laughed.

what happened has happened and im using halloween as an example not an excuse.

:lol:

Aye, noticed that like. I'd love to see him sacked, spiral into alcohol abuse and end up living in a Glasgow skip.
 
Far too cosy and matey at sky, it's just jobs for the boys, broadcasting talent just doesn't come into the equation when choosing presenters, commentators etc. Just can't see what Richard Keys brings to the party really, hasn't got a clue.
 
To people who disagree with her being a lino.

Why does gender make a difference to being able to do your job as a lino properly?

Why do you not want women to do it? (other than sexism?)
 
Just shows what an arrogant pair of kernts these two are. Never get a decision wrong do they at half past six on a Sunday night with their slow motions and freeze frames.

Sky needs a bit of new blood imho and has done for a few years

Exactly, I can't stand either of them, particularly Keys. He goes on as if his opinion is fact and premier league football belongs to him.
The Monday Night Football build up is cringe worthy. Most games now I turn on a minute before kick off and straight off at full time.
Love to see them both sacked.
 
Misquoting me to bolster your argument, where did i say 'every' linesman bows to pressure?

You call me laughable, then post that last sentence? Simply saying that the general consensus between 'some' (NOT EVERY) fans will be that because of her gender, she can be pressured, which will perhaps steel her all the more.

I would imagine she's faced a lot of adversity in even getting to the officiating stage, so she's obviously very good.

so she's no better and no worse than other lino's then?

the rest of your post is wishful thinking, it might be true, it might not, but well done on being a good guy.
 
look this lass has clearly been fast tracked because she is a female no other reason IMO, they have done it with other refs/assistants too based on there sex, age and race.

And yet she's been head and shoulders above her male counterparts in both games she has been involved in this season.

i'm just sexist, there is not one reason why a women can't ref a game, but i still don't want her to, women have there own football, and we have ours, but as long as they don't start commentating i don't mind that much.

She's better than most, based on the two showings i've seen, i may be proved wrong in the future. I can live with that though.

As for your last comment, don't be so childish. What do i possibly have to gain in posting what i have, it's simply my opinion.

Rubbish.

If anything she has to be better than the blokes cos any mistake will be pounced upon cos she is a woman, so they'd not give her the job if she wasn't up to it.

You don't have to be a bloke to be able to interpret the laws of the game and Andy Gray has proved his ineptitude on that front time and time again. Now if him and Keys were running the lines we would be in serious bother.

I dont understand your opinion at all like, but at least you are decent enough to admit its blind sexism :lol:

But as for the bit in bold i couldnt agree more, though that may just be because my ears have been burned by Jaqui Oatleys nasal screaming on MOTD a couple of years back
