If he stops walking long enough!

Watched all of those. Lots of walking and drinking water and sand. I guess you watched it for the eye candy Lou?

With the exception of Arsenal away we don't seemed to have put a great deal of effort into the cup matches. Not blaming RK for this. Perhaps the players need to look at themselves?

Rubbish tatt.

What a stupid comment.

It is a shame that some on here chose to ignore the issues and just put it down to a hatred of Murdoch and it is good to hear the girls perspective on topless models in national newspapers. It is so easy for a bloke to say it is harmless but when we have people like Ched Evans you can see that we produce many men who think women are here just for their sexual gratification. I said earlier that I thought "Page 3" was old fashioned and childish and it is nice to hear Lou support that view. It is time The Sun and other red tops grew up and started to treat women seriously. Many British men too for that matter. There is nothing wrong with nudity but when you still put a certain body type in a national newspaper to titillate men on a daily basis in 2015 there has to be something wrong.

This is nonsense. I don't like The Sun. I don't like Murdoch. I like the football coverage and if there was a columnist in it I like I wouldn't have a problem in reading the column. As it is they use dreadful people like Katie Hopkins and Kelvin McKenzie so I don't like a lot of their columns. If Mother Theresa had had a column there I wouldn't have a problem reading it. We are talking mainly about The Sun because they cornered the market in topless women in the red tops but when I talk about Page 3 I am also talking about the pictures that appeared in The Star and Sport as well. Seductive poses are also not ok because they have the same end result.

Completely disagree. I agree that Murdoch does transend a number of moral issue like the objectification of woman and the appalling breach of our rights through phone hacking to name just two things.

Fair point.

Not sure that you can stop people looking at a particular page in a daily newspaper. I think we have established that Page 3 is a part of the system that is wrong rather than being the cause but it really doesn't help anybody when in 2015 we still have a national newspaper that thinks it is ok to portray woman as sex objects. I agree that the problem is widespread and it would be more helpful if clothes models were an average size and body shape rather than the stick shape which I understand is suppose to make the clothes look better. Anorexia and other eating disorders are horrible and it is hearbreaking having to deal with a loved one who has this illness. It is about time that advertising stopped peddling dream images and started being more realistic. A girl looking at underwear modelled by a size 0 is not going to look the same in it if she is a 16 so why not show "normal" sized models. I don't know what the average size is. 12? 14? Wasn't Marilyn Monroe a size 16?

Some people find them very attractive.

It would be a start and it would send out quite a big message. And Page 3 is very different to a woman in a lingerie catalogue. That is there to sell underwear. Page 3 is there to give the men some eye candy and sell newspapers.

I am talking about high profile media jobs. I guess the women how SKY employ got there on the basis of their in depth knowledge of professional football

I don't watch SKY sports very often, but all of the women presenters on there seem to be babes. Aren't there any plain, overweight women who could do the job?

Please don't tell me he threw out the picture of the train too?

Or to be more precise, people with guns are the problem.

Can't believe his salary!

Perhaps if people were given jobs based on their ability rather than their looks that would be a start?

I don't know whether he had a low intellect or not, but he certainly displayed many traits of a narcissistic personality disorder.

I just hope it doesn't catch on!
