When I first heard this story I thought: "What a pair of prats". Now I hear that one of these - Gray - was paid £1,700,000 per year for being a prat. Now that really is something to get disgusted about. I do hope, that now he has been kicked off the gravy train, he still sees the funny side of his little bit of banter.

Yes indeed, it does seem an incredible salary for a man doing the job he says he loved. Would they not have got him to do the job he loved for £1,600,000? Or 50 grand? No wonder Sky Sports costs an arm and a leg.

I think he will be back sooner rather than later to give him a warning one day and dismiss him the next for a pre dated issue sounds like a good case of unfair dismissal, he didn't get given the chance to cock up again from the warning. Also is it coincidental that Sky are going through a take over and thus want to look squeaky clean, that they have done this?

After reading the following it seems like Gray & Keys but particularly Gray has been a sexist git for a long time at Sky and made a lot of enemies.  Please read on and then say you still have sympathy for him.

Also shocked at what Keys said about a woman Jamie Redknapp had been out with.. It was so rude and so unlike his on screen persona

Seriously couldn't give a damn one way or another, couple of twits. I'm worried about my footie coverage - afterall who is going to do the whole video thing putting circles around players drawing arrows on the pitch etc. I feel some intensive training coming on at sky!
