theyre both absolutely wankers in fairness

To be honest, I think that's a different issue. While I don't want to defend these two bellends, I don't think this clip is in the same area as yesterday's.

It does suggest sexism, but also shows the daft way we're supposed to treat women's football. The standard in that game is utterly risible, and if that was footage from the SPL or League 2 then they'd say as much. They seem to get the giggles as they were presumably instructed to report it with reverence.

That's not equality.

Wonder what Gray and Keys think of all the other females in sport then. How many female presenters do Sky Sports employ ? They are more or less saying that they are all thick as pig shit

Isn't Gray married to a former sports reporter? And isn't she 'former' in the sense that she mysteriously quit when she married Gray?

Might have made that up like.

good point, however if it was males making mistakes they'd get a couple of giggles and sniggers, as from everyone, but i've never seen these 2 cry with laughter over the male sport. I agree the female sport will never rise to its male equivelent but its just not on to be caught pissing yourself over them trying when you get paid to be professional about it;.

I agree - they're both snidey little bastards. No apology from Keys either, the cowardly shit.
 
Can I just say that the standards in women's football are getting better? I went to England v Turkey at Walsall at the start of the season and it really was a very enjoyable display of football. I'm not being biassed in saying this; I used to play and I'll be the first to say the standard really was shite. But now I'd recommend at least the England team to anyone. Not sure what it's like at league level now, not watched a lot of late.
 
I can see what they mean.

Lasses just don't know the game like fellas do. Yes they go to games and enjoy it but it's more about liking the young athletic blokes in truth.

They just don't talk about football in the same way as us blokes. There are a few on here but you never get them commenting on threads when it gets down to the nitty gritty of football - about tactics or transfer policy etc.

You see plenty of lasses at matches but when was the last time any of them said anything constructive about the match? The best you ever get is "they're doing their best, stop having a go at them".

This is not sexist. It is just a reality.

I don't get involved in Big Brother or cooking threads.

Sky employ very pretty girls with an interest in sport who can read off an autocue and rarely let them move beyond that.
