Just picking up on the demographics comment and not specific to any TV company.

We are told that young people have no money and don't watch traditional TV.

We are told that the baby boomers are the lucky generation who have it all including house, pension and disposal income.

And yet TV companies are obsessed with chasing the yoof culture and alienating the pale and the stale who actually watch telly and have money to spend.

And to prove the point a little niche TV channels called Talking Pictures (old B&W) run by a father and daughter from their bedroom gets higher ratings than MTV and many BBC programs.

Go figure.

One more point

Yep, someone at Sky aiming to be like the liberal, woke box ticking BBC could be making the worst decision Sky Sports has made.

is Keane the same ethnic group as Tyson Fury ?

difficult to sack if so. Too scary by far.

Kayla did Anfield & Old Trafford

You speak out and get cancelled really is no big deal? Silently watching it happen just means it continues and worsens, although money talks in the end so if not many watch the new version.... Sweeping out a whole team of presenters who reflect the majority and the show’s viewers but are white, for no doubt a fully minority box ticking new crop just after Le Tissier dares to have an opinion that’s controversial because you might get cancelled if you make it public is no big deal?

It’s a very strange decision business wise and I bet viewing figures dive because of it. But wasn’t lots of businesses going full BLM without researching what it stood for and then back-pedalled once the marxist statements were in the public domain, only the statements were available the whole time.

I also bet they don’t ‘sack’ chris Kamara, not that I would want that because he’s a funny chap, but it’s revealing enough.

Just imagine if it ends up like channel 4’s ‘The Big Narstie.’ It won’t make it to the 3rd round of the FA cup.

Matt Le Tissier had opinions on BLM and Covid.

Other celebrities or reporters and such like are in danger of being cancelled by Owen jones types if they dare have a differing opinion. Very dangerous society to allow to happen. If someone’s opinion is so wrong then see if they make a fool of themselves like Nick Griffin on QT. That’s how it used to be and should be. He was never seen again. They won’t allow an opinion anymore because the opinions they don’t like are sensible.

People can’t have it both ways. If women shouldn’t be allowed on because they haven’t had experience of elite level football, then surely it’s right to have more ethnic minority players who make up 50%+ of the total player pool right now.

For the record, I don’t necessarily disagree with Le Tissier on his BLM comments. Covid not so much.

Vive le Roy!
