Yeah, just answered this somewhere else. Hopefully it will be like for like as in a group of lads who know the changing room banter and can laugh at themselves. It's probably due a change to be fair. Pundits tend to mellow with experience. As hard as it is to admit, Roy Keane would be great on soccer Saturday. He tells it as he sees it, that's all I ask. I'd have Joey Barton on too when he leaves management. I reckon they will spoil the chemistry by putting a female on the panel. Aluko would tick the right boxes but is as bland as they come. Just cliche after cliche. Also, how many mens changing rooms has she been in?
Ben Whites agent was on Sky Sports, asked directly about him leaving Brighton for Leeds the agent said he is sorry to disappoint Leeds fans but he has zero chance of being sold to Leeds Brighton are point blank refusing it. On Ben White leaving Brighton he said watch this space, there is lots going on behind the scenes, expect some news within the next 48 hours... So could be signing a new contract or sold to someone other than us
13 years ago - we signed Tresor Kandol 7 years ago - we signed Steve Morison 4 years ago - we signed Marcus Antonsson We are about to sign Spain’s number 9 for £30 million. Its somewhat spoilt by Bielsa insisting League 1 Liam starts the season.
Sky Sports are as woke as CH4 and the BBC. le Tis and harlie all kicked off about the media bowing down to black lives matter. Le Tis said it was a terrorist organisation as it wanted to get rid of the police, border security etc. No wonder people are refusing to buy a tv license and cancelling Sky.....
Step forward mr foyth the leeds fans will cheer you on instead. We must have already put a bid in because we never hear in advance anyway.
MATT LE TISSIER has been kicked off Sky Sports along with fellow Soccer Saturday pundits Charlie Nicholas and Phil Thompson. The three long-serving football experts were given the boot on Tuesday in a remarkable move by the TV company who have been aggressively cutting staff numbers. please log in to view this image Confirming his dismissal, Le Tissier wrote on Twitter: "Enjoyed my time at Sky Sports, time to look forward to life's next challenge, thank you for the support down the years and special thanks to the backroom team which include @CazzaEccles @CarlyBassett @tvtrevstats amongst many others, good luck all have a lovely day." Thompson said: "I've had a great 22 years on Sky Sports. Enjoyed every minute with some amazing people on the show and behind the scenes which made it the iconic show it is today. Good luck to Sky, Jeff, Merse and the new gang on Soccer Saturday." Presenter Jeff Stelling will remain, as will Arsenal legend Paul Merson. It's thought that with the show's panel being made up entirely of white men of a certain age, Sky felt that Soccer Saturday's existing format had run its course. Sky have not announced who will replace the trio. Stelling appeared gutted by the news, writing on Twitter in reply to Le Tissier: "One of my saddest days ever at Sky Sports with the departure of three of my best mates. They have been part of a team that for me was the best." END OF AN ERA Former Southampton superstar and England ace Le Tissier, 51, was a hugely popular member of Stelling’s Saturday team. And “Le God” formed a brilliant relationship with Liverpool’s former captain and assistant manager Thommo, 66, and ex-Celtic and Arsenal star Nicholas, 58. The three men clocked close to 50 years service between them with Sky and will be greatly missed by the millions of armchair football fans who tuned into the long-running Gillette Soccer Saturday show. Midfield magician Le Tissier spent all his professional career with the Saints and it was one of football’s biggest mysteries why he only won eight England caps. He hung up his boots in 2003 before joining Sky's punditry panel shortly after. Former Reds skipper and England star Thompson won 16 major titles with his beloved Liverpool including seven First Division titles, three European Cup, one FA Cup and two League Cup successes. In 2001 Thommo was praised by his fellow football pundit Tony Cottee for saving his life when the Liverpool hero paid for a doctor to examine his colleague before he suffered a brain haemorrhage. Having worked for Sky since 1998, when Thompson left his role as Gerard Houllier's assistant at Liverpool in 2004, he became a bigger member of the team. Scotland striker Nicholas secured two Premier League honours and one League Cup for Glasgow giants Celtic and one League Cup with the Gunners. The 58-year-old's playing career came to an end in 1996 before he turned to punditry. Le Tissier had it written into his Sky contract that he didn’t have to wear a tie for the weekend and mid-week television shows. He recently caused a stir on social media for wearing a Black Lives Matter badge on the programme after suggesting to his half-a-million Twitter followers that he was against the idea. Le Tissier also declared he was taking a break from social media earlier this month when he was attacked by online trolls calling for him to be sacked by Sky. The trolls turned on the football pundit for criticising the government’s handling of the Covid-19 crisis Family man Le Tissier lashed out at his online critics for trying to “ruin my life” and get me “sacked” before taking a break from Twitter. He wrote at the time: “You trolls and bots out there who try to belittle me with your snide remarks trying to make out I’m some uncaring individual who has no empathy. “You can’t be further from the truth and I feel incredibly sorry for you that there is so little joy in your life, you resort to this.” please log in to view this image
So first they say that Sky are cutting staff, but yet at the end of the piece it says that they'll be freshing it up with new faces. Well we know with what. Enthic minorities. Fair play to Le Tissier for standing up to those sky bosses who asked him to wear a blm badge and he refused for reasons that he was entitled to give. Sad day for democracy whatever you think of those individuals who were sacked.
I don’t mind all three of them but I didn’t want to contradict Ristac I could feel his ban hammer hovering
