He is a complete and utter moron. Hopefully he won't be polluting the darts coverage after that.

Sad to say that a lot of people think the same way as Bristow.

[DaveShoelace]

Is Bristow always this much of a twonk on social media or is this a 'blow up'?

I think its a minority these days, but I fear that it may be a loud minority on the terraces if this story gets bigger and more widespread to reveal the active players and staff as victims.

Yes along with boasting about how much he is winning on the 49s draw at his local bookies. Wonder how Bristow bets is going? Think it went under a while ago


Anyway sky appear to have let him go

Darios position must now be untenable. It seems every other team knew about Bennell at the time. Not sure why the mail are making fergie a big point of that article as the player says he was great. Well it is the mail

Wow, that was quick.

If true, it shows that a moments stupidity or carelessness can destroy a career - Big Ron & Gerald Ratner will testify to that.

Lots of public figures hold controversial views, but sometimes it's best to stay schtum.

Amazing it has taken Sky this long (23 years at Sky) to get rid of him off our screens and stick him full time in the van as a spotter for the cameraman.  Incredible it has taken something like this for it to finally happen.  Thank god for that.  He is a confirmed alco and wife beater on top of his dinosaur views.  He is one of the worse analysts and comm's of any sport on TV and dresses terribly on the screen.  He adds nothing when he opens his mouth of any substance apart from being a 5 time world champion.  How James Wade deluded himself into thinking he would suddenly become a 105+ scorer in order to compete at the top level by taking him on as an advisor was just as biazzre.  Bristow's bets used to be one of the most comical parts of any sporting event on sky sports the stuff he used to tip up.  He made Mardle's betfair column look like a full time winning punter in comparison he was that bad.
