      If it is then it's a pretty stupid move. Plenty of Diversity on Final Score with Gabby Logan, Garth Crooks etc but Soccer Saturday is still a far more popular show and I think it's down to the chemistry between the pundits, who have been there for 20 years in some cases. Seems silly to mess with a winning formula

      The worse thing is keeping that tw*t merson. Must be worried about him going off the wagon

      You'd think that, but they had no problem rolling him out for the SkyBet adverts even though he had a well-documented Gambling addiction

      Yeah and we know what that means sadly. Nothing wrong with the current panel as you can have some great laughs listening to them. Its now going to be replaced with donkeys who know f**k all about football. They will lose veiwing figures after listening to the new donkeys for a week or two.

      F***ing wankers.




      Controversial decisions from Sky, it is no coincidence that they will probably have more black faces to show they are being more diverse, absolutely nothing wrong in that except sacking three of the usual suspects for that reason is wrong, perhaps a more diplomatic way of making such changes would be to alternate those who appear on a weekly basis,

      Recently we’ve seen more of Clinton Morrison who I think is brilliant, he says it how it is and hasn’t got that self ego personality,

      Micah Richards is funny, he has a more light hearted persona about him but you can tell he’s not going to be a typical pundit, in saying that he will bring about the modern point of view and will know more about the mindsets of modern footballers,

      Alex Scott is a breath of fresh air and brings with her a females perspective of the game, I’m old school and still have reservations in that respect, I realise the game is moving on and equality has a major role to play in the future of the sport, people like myself just have to accept that this is the way forward and get used to it,


      As for Thommo, Le Tiss & Charlie bhoy they are just victims of our times unfortunately, they have enjoyed a long period on soccer Saturday and go with some real funny memories, life moves on as we all know, I just hope the new faces show a level of expertise equal to those who they replace.



      P.S.  Shame they couldn’t find a replacement for that old Kunt Tyler !

      Sky have also binned Scott minto who presented a fair bit of the efl coverage and for me was one of their best presenters

      The thing that gets on my tits about pundits, who are supposed to be experts, is their lack of understanding of our system.

      So many of them seem to see football as only 442.
      I mean they'll talk about us having a 433, or previously a 4231, but as soon as they start analysing, they immediately drop back into 442 mode.
      One minute they're talking about how many assists our fullbacks get, then the next minute they bang on about a "lack of creativity from midfield" as though the two things are entirely unrelated.

      They still talk about us having no "box to box midfielder", when we don't actually play a system where one would make sense.

      They contradict themselves constantly.

      So I stopped listening to them.
      They're mostly full of sh*t dinosaurs that are still obsessed with 442, because they haven't taken the time to understand how Klopp's systems work.

      Thing is as well, Phil Thompson has won 3 European Cups and countless league titles. They'll probably replace him with some mid table bum who's had a few elocution lessons

      this is what I fear, I may well turn over the BT, I enjoy sutton's patter and enjoy him sticking up for scottish football. ;D

      Must be in the minority then judging by all the comments. ;D

      Anytime I flick onto Soccer Saturday I cannot bear it for more than a few minutes and haven't bothered in years.

      Surprised so many would keep the likes of Le Tissier and Nicolas.

      Far from an avid watcher but if I've got a football coupon on and/or waiting for the scores to come in I'll watch Soccer Saturday over any of the other results shows. The majority of them are incoherent pissheads at the best of times but I don't actually mind that and find it quite funny

      These days I turn over about 4.30 on a Saturday unless the redmen are playing,  don't think I have ever watched it from beginning to end.

      Replaced by Pulis and Tim Facking Sherwood.

      Most annoying by a mile is Merson anyway with his tired old cliches.

      Got bored of the Arsenal game at ht and lobbed this on until 3pm games.

      Carra complaining that the pen was harsh but in the same sentence saying the rules had changed to indicate it was.

      Really tries too hard to be impartial.
