Gary Neville and Martin Tyler had been highlighted by the previous Gunners participant within the aftermath of their 3-0 defeat to Brighton on the weekend, with Keown claiming it is “frightening” how anti-Arsenal the commentary duo supposedly are.
But Stelling, who's quickly to depart Sky as presenter of the Soccer Saturday programme, has hit again on the claims.
In a Twitter reply to a clip of Keown speaking in regards to the matter, the 68-year-old merely wrote: “Absolute tripe.”
Fans have largely backed Stelling within the row, with many feeling that veteran broadcaster Tyler was, actually, not enthusiastic sufficient whereas commentating on Brighton’s objectives on the Emirates Stadium.
Keown, 51, had argued that ex-Manchester United star Neville’s “problem” with Arsenal was well-known.
“How biased is the Sky Sports commentary team? It is frightening,” he advised talkSPORT.
“Martin Tyler is a great professional, but he cannot hide that it hurts him that Arsenal might win a game of football. Honestly, we know Neville has got a problem.
“He is almost apologising: ‘Have I lost my mind? Should we be sending [Gabriel] Martinelli off?’ No no, not at all, you go with your instinct.
“So, there we are, it is a poke in the eye to a commentator. I should be more respectful, Martin is a great commentator, but please Sky, don’t put him on the Arsenal games anymore. It is a really hard listen.”
