Andy Gray's return to co-commentary earns BT Sport mixed reception

Andy Gray return to co-commentary for the first time since losing his Sky job after making off-camera sexist comments in 2011 earned BT sports a mixed reception.

Gray, who has worked alongside former colleague Richard Keys on TalkSport and in Doha since the row, made a one-off appearance at Stevenage – prompting some viewers to threaten to cancel their subscriptions over BT's apparent endorsement of sexist views.
