Yes but now that tape the Sky Gallery WOMAN worker leaked has gone global. Richard is already removed from tonights live match due to this global interest. I love the Harry Enfield clip. Karen Brady would look Great over my Desk. Last edited by arista; 24-01-2011 at 01:22 PM. |

I'm not sure the 'but it wasn't said live on air' excuses work here as they were at their job and sexism in the workplace isn't allowed under the sex discrimination act.
It's a tad convenient that these comments have been leaked by Skysports, his employer, whilst he's in the process of taking the NOTW to court over all this phone hacking. Maybe it's a coincidence, who knows. |

I could be wrong arista, but I'm sure the sketch you're thinking of is not Harry Enfield, but from The Fast Show.......
Ron Manager (Paul Whitehouse) and Tommy (Mark Williams) are taken aback when a woman is in the presenter's chair and starts talking to them about football. They respond as you say, and eventually ask her to go and make them a cup of tea "luv"! A very apt sketch the BBC should dig-up and re-show to rub Sky's noses in it at the moment! |

No it was a Recent sketch on the Harry and Paul show. (no clip found) at a Football match, and the 2 of them were not having a female presenter. No Sky is loving all the Free ads for SkySportsHD while the Bloated BBC spends hours debating the 2 presenters Last edited by arista; 25-01-2011 at 11:22 AM. |

Maybe so arista, but Eamonn Holmes seemed a bit sheepish about discussing the incident on Sky News Sunrise this morning
He didn't pour over the tabloid front pages for half as long as usual! I see the Guardian is even getting-in on the stirring with articles like this:What does it take to get sacked in sports broadcasting? A rogues' gallery of presenters and pundits and the fate that awaited them after their indiscretions Jimmy 'The Greek' Snyder A Las Vegas bookie with an NFL punditry slot on CBS, Snyder broke bread with a TV reporter in a Washington restaurant in 1988, and came unstuck with comments about black athletes: "The black is a better athlete to begin with because he's been bred to be that way. This goes back all the way to the Civil War when the slave owner would breed his big black to his big woman so that he could have a big black kid." Sacked Ron Franklin The veteran ESPN commentator addressed touchline reporter Jeannine Edwards as "sweet baby" in a production meeting on New Years Eve 2010, then responded to her objection by calling her an "asshole". Sacked Chris Price In 2008, the freelance BBC Radio Manchester reporter described Bradford City's defence as "having more holes than a Spanish aircraft". A week earlier, a Spanair jet had crashed, killing 153. Not invited back Alan Pardew Watching footage of Michael Essien tackling Ched Evans while on the Match of the Day 2 sofa in 2009, the then-Southampton manager opined that the Chelsea midfielder had "absolutely raped" his opponent. Not invited back Ron Atkinson The ITV commentator and Guardian columnist accused Marcel Desailly of being a "*******ing lazy thick n****r" when supposedly off-mic during Chelsea's 2004 Champions League semi-final defeat in Monaco. Sacked and loses newspaper column Rodney Marsh On a January 2005 edition of You're On Sky Sports, Marsh claimed David Beckham had turned down a move to Newcastle after hearing about trouble with "the Toon Army in Asia". The previous month, over 200,000 people had died after an earthquake and tsunami in the Indian Ocean. Sacked Richard Keys In 2007, introducing highlights of the Faroe Islands v Scotland Euro 2008 qualifier, the Sky anchor finished his link, then added the following open-mic flourish: "Daft little ground, silly game, ******* off."

I hadn't seen that one before. The sketch I mentioned to arista from The Fast Show is in a similar vein, except from the studio and the 2 pundits (Ron Manager and Tommy) being gobsmacked that a woman is being allowed to talk about football. |
