Im guessing Jamie Carragher will be promoted to it but I think they should go with 1 or 2 BAME candidates and maybe even a woman

Mod delete my thread, didn't see this.

I wonder who they will shoehorn in....

Denver

Id Go Sue Smith, Jamie Carragher and Jamie Redknapp maybe even add Emile Heskey

I'm curious as to what this means for the other rotating members - Paul Merson (who, whilst I do like him, is more clueless than these 3), Tony Cottee (absolutely useless and boring as well), Alan McInally etc. Will they be promoted to regulars?

I'd imagine Sue Smith will get more features, she's alright. Not keen on Clinton Morrison, bit boring.

I feel they will go for more of a wider representative then just white males tbh and I wouldn't be surprised to see some others get dropped

Sacked because they are not black enough?

So many memories of watching it. Can’t lie, I haven’t really watched it for a long time now though.

So she's not doing Goals on Sunday next year either?

I don't watch it much these days as I'd rather be at a live game but the familiarity of the pundits was part of the charm along with the blokey banter imo but I suppose that's also what might make it seem a bit stale

Sue Smith will be the most likely female

I get why they've done it, but I would've slowly got rid of them rather than take most of them out immediately.

Its all kicking off at Sky Sports, Kaveh Solhekol has accused a fan account of being racist with no evidence what so al and Jim White is defending him, dont see how they can be kept

According to The Sun, Soccer Am is getting axed.

Not that I have watched it in years (don't have Sky) but I used to enjoy it.

I am not at all surprised.

It’s sooooo samey / predictable each week .
Even the choices of crappy opening bands are horrific ..

I used to enjoy SoccerAM years ago.

Nowadays though I think Sky Sports as a channel is not very interesting unless Jeff or Mike are hosting imo.

I still enjoy Soccer AM, not sure why they're scrapping all the football weekend morning shows really. You'd think it's a prime slot for it before all the matches get going as people are building up to them
