The folly of uncut Keys and a darker shade of Gray

THE sexist Sky football pundits Richard Keys and the burly Andy Gray were at home twiddling their thumbs last night in shamed silence even though their station was broadcasting Monday Night Football.

They have been taken off air by their employers for an undefined period following the furore over their sexist remarks about female officials before the weekend clash between Liverpool and Wolves.

The pair of boyos thought the microphones were not switched on when they discussed the sideline presence of assistant referee Sian Massey in a one-minute exchange before the game. They were wrong. Their mikes were live.
