Hayley McQueen was “fuming” after Joe Brolly’s comments towards colleague Rachel Wyse

Do you remember Joe Brolly's idiotic comments regarding Rachel Wyse in 2014?

Hayley McQueen sure does and she was rightly "fuming" with the GAA pundit for what he reduced her Sky Sports colleague to two years ago. For those who don't remember, Brolly tweeted that "SKY = TV3 plus Baywatch babe" when Sky Sports' GAA deal began and Wyse was chosen to head up the broadcasts, a role in which she has gone on to excel. While that tweet was deleted, the 1993 All-Ireland winner tweeted the following the next morning. https://twitter.com/JoeBrolly1993/status/469032787690151936 Brolly came in for massive stick for his outdated beliefs and, in spite of his apology to Wyse, many were left disappointed with his insensitivity. https://twitter.com/JoeBrolly1993/status/469071622658600962?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw One such person is McQueen, one of the most recognisable faces from the Sky Sports News panel, who has revealed that she was "fuming" after reading Brolly's comments. McQueen, in Dublin to promote Sky Sports' 2016-17 Premier League coverage, told Newstalk's Raf Diallo of her reaction to the antediluvian suggestions of Brolly. "Joe Brolly wrote a really bad article on one of my best friends, Rachel Wyse," McQueen said. "I was fuming. Rachel is an intelligent, brilliant journalist who was just starting out in her career here, needed the confidence, needed the backing of her own press and some guy wrote a really derogatory piece about her. "That's when I get defensive. So I might not necessarily come under scrutiny. But when I see my friends and colleagues and other young girls, that becomes a problem. https://twitter.com/SportsJOEdotie/status/758666849965973504 "How is somebody like that who is supposed to be professional and putting a message out, there are people read his column and you think 'these young people trust this journalist and everything you guys say as journalists and you've just gone and taken us back 10 years.' That bothered me."
