Keys and Gray join Talksport
Following the high profile departures of Andy Gray and Richard Keys from Sky Sports after they were recorded making off air sexist comments towards a female match official, news broke today that the pair have joined the TalkSport commercial radio station to front a 3 hour program on weekdays between 10am-1pm starting from 14th February.
Whilst many have branded the move as blatent publicity seeking for the TalkSport station the pair themselves have defended their appointments. Keys is quoted on the official TalkSport site as saying “This is the start of something new and exciting for Andy and myself. We are delighted to be joining the talkSPORT family and can’t wait to get going.”
Gray is also putting a positive spin on his new job and is quoted on the official TalkSport site as saying “I can’t tell you how excited I am about joining the talkSPORT team. It’s an ideal opportunity for Richard and me to do what we do best, and that’s talk about sport.”
