she apparently had a call from someone in Sunderland on Sunday to see if Randy had the money and was serious about buying Bent. Apparently she will know as she lives just two doors away from him in London.

Is that true? Does he leave £18m on the sideboard in full view of the neighbours?

They were breaking their holes laughing for most of the highlights but can't say I blame them. Every goal was farcical and the cup was nearly dropped twice at the presentation. Has women's football got any better since this (which judging from the SKY graphics is from about 1998)?

Good Luck to the woman she made better decisions than most of the blokes down VP anyway, but we should not notice this
kind of thing, i mean we have had premier league woman referees for years, look at Webb,Clattenburg, and Dowd !!!

"Kenny will go potty". Just Kenny, not Mick?

That certainly explains the slant on most Sky coverage.

If it had been said in a funny ha-ha, jokey way, it would perhaps be excusable in the environment they work in, but the fact they seemed deadly serious about it is a worrying attitude in this day and age and completely undermines them as pundits/broadcasters. These two are normally biased enough against referees and have become unbelievably smug and self-important in recent years. Just as well they don't work for the BBC or they'd be looking for new jobs this morning.

I hope they both get the boot, especially Keys. The hairy handed Cov fan cant stand us.

What about that pile of shit programme Loose Women. A load of withered old hags slagging men off every day for an hour.

Jokes about men not being able to multi task, being poofs with flu etc etc. No difference.

If somebody does explain the offside rule to that female linesman (?) maybe she could go on to explain it to Andy Gray.

It's funny that they got caught out saying what they no doubt really think. Even funnier that Keys was right about there being a really big decision in the game. Which she got spot on.

My dear old Mom watched the Villa right up to till she died at the age of 83, and she used to subscribe to Sky Sports as well. If shes looking down she would have had a right go at them for talking like that when she helped pay their wages. While she was at it she would have given them as succinct an explanation of the offside rule as any bloke and told the pair of them in no uncertain terms a few other home truths as well.

Sack them both, they have been around too long anyway.

Wouldn't go that far - she had the Croydon face-lift thing going on.  Nice legs tho'.
