Richard Keys has resigned as a Sky presenter following his sexist comments about female referee Sian Massey.

I had a feeling that he would resign following what had happened... but again like with Andy Gray he can be replaced by someone else...

Reminds me of HabboxLive. Once one person gets fired, they all decide to resign! ;)

But yeah, replaceable. I don't watch Sports so I have no idea who these people are, but the reason he was fired really is pathetic.

It was imminent that with Andy Gray out of the limelight he would be the next target, he's probably just saved himself a load of bother.

I wouldn't say hugely pathetic, you can't say things like that these days and get away with it.

I guess it was expected anyway, they should get fired to be honest. Think before you speak?

It's such a terrible crime isn't it? I mean.. having a joke when the microphones should have been turned off is absolutely terrible :O Society is ******, that's all I can say :(

Its a bit like when Gordon Brown said things about that woman when he thought his mic was off

Shame that someone who had been with sky sports for years had to go this way tbh

It doesn't change whether it is pathetic or not.

The cameraman should now be fired for leaking private material to newspapers.

Bet that won't happen.

No, but he shouldn't have been recording it in the first place.

They were off air, so imagine they were in their own houses talking to each other. Bet they wouldn't have been fired then.

It wasnt the camera that was rolling it was caught through their microphones which they thought were turned off...

Smarmy gits. Never thought bad of them prior but especially the 'smash it' thing with Jamie Redknapp, hope his ego has been deflated.
