Gray takes legal advice on sacking

Jan 26 2011

Soccer pundit Andy Gray is consulting lawyers after he was fired in the football sexism row.

The Sky Sports presenter, already in trouble over sexist remarks about assistant referee Sian Massey, was sacked "in response to new evidence of unacceptable and offensive behaviour" following an "off-air incident that took place in December 2010", the broadcaster said.

The future of fellow Sky Sports presenter Richard Keys - who was issued with a warning for his involvement in the furore - was also unclear, after new footage emerged of him appearing to speak in lewd terms about a former girlfriend of pundit Jamie Redknapp.
