Reviews and Complaints

As a Kilmarnock fan I'm very unhappy with kris boyds comments about Leigh Griffiths live on sky sports 22/01/20.id like to know how sky lets someone comment like this about someone who suffers mental health problems. As of this behaviour I will be cancelling my sky sport I am not paying for a service to listen at someone take a swipe at someone live on sky sport. Sort it out

I would like to file a complaint against football pundit Kris Boyd regarding the comments he made last night in the Kilmarnock vs Celtic football match at Leigh Griffiths. His comments where vile, selfish and he should be sacked by Sky. Depression is already a hard subject for males to talk about and comments like these make it even tougher for people to discuss and find the help needed. Kris Boyd should be disgusted and so should Sky to continue his employment after these comments.

Kris Boyd in sky sports after Celtic game last night was nothing short of vile. The way he spoke about Leigh Griffiths. How many games that he missed. Why did he miss them well he was ill What an excuse for a so called pundit. You are scraping the bottom of the barrel using him An arrogant ignorant vile excuse of a man
As an ambassador for mental Heath awareness he needs to take a long lookat himself He has no right to speak about anyone like that. Vile vile vile

The man is total disgrace, his treatment live on air about a man that has had mental health issues ( Leigh Griffiths) is nothing short of deplorable. I don't feel this man should be on the television at all, never mind doing punditry on Celtic games. His bitterness shone through last night toward Celtic, Leigh Griffiths and Mental health in general.
I hope sky sports recognise how serious mental health is and the need to show support to people with this illness and not openly bash someone live on air about his personal life and how he's only managed to play so many games and how his career is under threat.
It was disgusting to watch and I hope you take a strong stance.

His treatment of leigh Griffiths was none other than shocking this idiot should not be near a TV studio and I'm very surprised by such a massive company like sky would employ such a plonker. I will be doing my upmost to try get people to cancel all sky subscriptions until this idiot is removed from our TV screens, I know this proberly will come to nothing but maybe just maybe sky will listen and do the right thing. 💚💚Leigh Griffiths 💚💚

I am complaining about the comments Kris Boyd made regarding Leigh Griffiths on Wednesday 22 Jan 2020.
These comments were a disgrace coming from a person who champions Mental Health issues, furthermore I am also asking the question about the facts and figures on Leigh Griffiths appearances over the previous year, was Sky Sports asked to provide him with these figures and stats, I'm pretty sure he never turned up armed with them.
I'm also a little dissapointed that the co TV pundit Steve Clarke stood in silence when Boyd spouted his attack on Leigh Griffiths

Kris Boyd's comments about Celtic Striker Leigh Griffiths were out of order and discriminatory against Mr Griffith's mental health condition after last nights game between Kilmarnock and Celtic. Not only were they insulting they are against what Kris Boyd advocates as an Ambassador of a Mental health Group formed due to the untimely death of his brother. The attitude and blatant attempt to offend and demoralise Mr Griffiths was off putting and made me consider my my subscription to Sky as a product if people like him are allowed to air poisonous comments about human beings with Mental Health issues. I, like many people hope that Kris Boyd is removed from his role as a Sky pundit, disciplined at least and a public apology from both Sky Sports and Kris Boyd to Mr Griffiths.

I am appalled by the comments from Kris Boyd towards Leigh Griffiths last night on live TV. To slate a man who has played 70 NOT 34 league matches because he took time out due to his mental health, while running your own charity supporting mental health, in my opinion is out of order. I hope sky sports take some action on this and he never gets to work on a Celtic game again. The man is a clown

An absolute disgrace you continue to employ Kris Boyd. His comments last night about a player who has been battling mental health issues was disgusting.

He should be withdrawn as a punishment and forced to issue an apology to save his job as that was unacceptable. He is supposed to be the face of mental health issues within Scottish football but decided it was appropriate to bring down another man.

Sky sports football pundit Kris Boyd should not be employed by your panel he should be no where near live television or commentary or discussions with your panel. He is an embarrassment to Scottish football to sky personally but most importantly to suffers of a mental health condition. He is supposed to be the face of mental health in the sport. Yet kris thought it was acceptable live on air to out Leigh Griffiths for how much football he has missed because of the condition he has suffered with for a long time now. Leigh is getting back on his feet and proven everyone wrong including kris. Every opportunity he gets he takes it to put the boy down. It's left the nation with real anger and frustration and his bigoted comments and action should be taken. I will not be watching any more of his slander and many people will follow suit. The outrage of not just Celtic supports but people who watch football in general has been astonishing and he needs to punished. I hope Sky as a company acts on this and very promptly for the sake of our game our fans and to keep a lid on bigotry.

Kris Boyd's comments 22/1/20 regarding Leigh Griffiths post match Kilmarnock v Celtic were incorrect, misleading and deeply offensive.

The stats he quotes are skewed due to absence for mental health reasons, he then makes snide comment about the need to be "mentally strong" whilst smirking. There was no on air apology for this not does his continued lack of professionalism seem to be challenged.

He is supposed to be impartial and yet during the last Celtic v Rangers game he can again be seen to show his bias when you compare his demeanor in his chair at half time and full time.

He possess neither the wit nor intelligence to hide his obvious bigoted bias and it continues to perplex me why Sky seem to continually ignore his repugnant behaviour.

Last night your paid pundit Kris Boyd made disgraceful and disgusting remarks about Celtic player Leigh Griffiths with regards to his playing time over last 2 years.
Leigh has had serious mental problems in this period and has made a renarkable come back to the game..Boyd should be sacked immediately...he is a disgrace to your channel
And if he is not sacked it says it all about t sky sports channel

While watching your coverage of Celtic vs Kilmarnock on Tuesday 22nd of January, I was absolutely disgusted with the comments from Kris Boyd regarding Celtic player Leigh Griffith's and his mental health issues! As an ambassador for a mental health charity, Kris Boyd should be ashamed of himself. I will certainly not be watching any future football game from sky sports, if Kris Boyd is involved!

Kris Boyd comments on SkySports. He was degrading to a footballer who has openly admitted to mental health problems, and Boyds comments are such that they could have a detrimental effect on the individual. I don't believe that Boyd should in any way be portrayed as an expert by Sky Sports
There is no place in society for any individual on television to be degrading towards anyone who suffers from mental health issues and this should be looked into as a matter of extreme urgency and be resolved as soon as is possible.

I would like to bitterly complain about your pundit Kris Boyd who was working on the Kilmarnock vs Celtic match last night, his attack on a a player who is suffering from mental health issues was outrageous, and your company is complicit in his actions and opinion by not apologising on air for his verbal attack, if this matter is not dealt with, I will be cancelling down all my subscriptions which I currently pay over £100 per month.

Sky sports pundit Kris Boyd was out of order last night!
his comments on Leigh Griffiths are both shocking and indefensible.
Griffiths has had mental health problems and Kris Boyd comments do SKY no service.
it sis obvisous that this individual cannot or is not capable of giving a balanced view as a pundit.
his informaiton was incorrect and skewed, stating Griffiths had played in only 35 of 135 games, this is utterly wrong. Griffiths was involved in more that double that amount of games, and scored regularly.
Sky should have this man on the carpet both for his comments and his lack of ability when it comes to facts.
Is this the type of broadcasting that Sky wants to be associated with?

Boyd a sky sports employee openly hammering a player with mental health problems? all the while the man has his name to a mental health charity organisation, Is this the stand point of Sky on mental health in our society?
i would appreciate your response on the above.

I would like to know when SKY Sports are going to doing something about Kris Boyd? the way he spoke about a Celtic player last night on TV is an absolute joke and it is high time that you got this sorted out. The celtic player has been going through a hard time lately and should be getting support not slated by Kris Boyd. this man should know better, what kind of signals does this send out to young people that watch the football.

I await your reply on this very upsetting Matter and expect you do action this.

I would like to draw your attention to Kris Boyd and his comments last night about mental health. You suspended a man for spitting what are you going to do about Boyd ? It was disgusting what he came away with. I have been and know people who have suffered from this horrible illness yet this person thinks he can have a sly dig about it and about another human being and get away with it.

The behaviour from kris boyd towards leigh Griffiths is an absolute disgrace. This man supposedly is a patron of mental health in Scotland yet thinks its acceptable to call leigh out on it. He quoted his stats from last season knowing full well the reason why he was taking the break. How can he support and yet degrade at the same time. What if leigh took his remarks to heart and did something unimaginable?what then?you need to take kris boyd to task over this as it could potentially have serious repercussions.

I'd like to complain about your presenter Kris Boyd during sky's live game of Celtic v Kilmarnock.He picked on a Celtic player after the game Lee Griffith's who's a history of mental problems. He is a disgrace to your company and should be taken off the air. Unprofessional and totally disrespectful.Kris Boyd is taking an agenda he has against lee Griffiths and making a mockery of his problems on live television
