    Are we talking about ex Sky pundit Andy Gray? Him and Keys have been working Al Jazeera (sp?) I believe.

    Was commentator for the Everton game on BT Sports, Almost switched the commentary off listening to him, Has to be up there with Andy Townsend for worst commentator

    Horrible man. So is he freelancing for BBC and BT Sports? Very surprising.

    Which of the three Andy Grays are you talking about? If you mean the ex-Wolves and Everton striker then I must disagree. Firstly he is not a commentator, he is an expert analyst, secondly he is probably the best analyst and reader of a game that I have ever heard in football. Ok he may be a sleaze-ball but he knows what he is talking about.

    I don't know what BBC Sport. S is? But I heard him as co-commentator on BT sport this afternoon? No time for his idiotic sexist comments, but I think he's a lot less biased than some other commentators can be paulie? But it's all about opinions, as we say... :-)

    BBC Sport South I guess he means living in Maidstone. Maybe it was just a clip on the news using the BT footage?

    He was definitely doing the commentary in BT Sport for the Everton game. I actually think he's a very good analyst and have missed his insight although that's not a recommendation of his character.

    Andy Gray & Richard Keys present Premiership football on Al Jazeera Sports. They have their own show on every Saturday, Sunday & Monday evening covering all the games live. As today was FA Cup day, they obviously had a day off.

    I always thought he was a good analyst on Sky although Keys would have made a chimpanzee with an abacus look like Einstein.

    Listening to him on BT sport was a welcome relief from the droning prattle of Michael Owen
    Gray was like silk compared to that bore

    Looking at his hairy hands, I thought Keys WAS the chimpanzee with the abacus! ;-)

    I saw Gray and Peter Reid on a packed tube going to Wembley for England v Italy circa 1997. Someone asked Gray about Keys and he said "he's got rocks in his head".

    Yep. They also do Friday evening on Talksport live from Doha. They like to call it 'Talksport International'!

    Have a feeling Sky have held a few videos back until he pops up on a rival network.

    So, so cynical.

    And yet so correct.

    Goodness me, I thought we'd signed him again for a minute then.

    I had a nightmare vision of him and Churchy up front.

    Great scoop for the Football Ramble that. Their podcast is amazing well worth a listen. Was taking the piss out of Keys in the latest one before this came out.

    What a leering rapey bell end. Him and his sneering hairy side kick are everything shit and mediocre about sports journalism, Knows jack shit about non premiership football and a vile person to boot. Why does he keep getting employed.
