Soccer AM Cancelled

[Blue Smarties]

That'll make a number on here happy. To be fair, it seemed to run its course. I don't think I've watched it once this season.

 

[mexico1970]

Not inclusive enough or just shit? Only time will tell.

 

[Mad Eyed Screamer]

Can proudly say I've never watched even 5 seconds of any of it.

Used to be great, just think its had its day now. Read another article earlier lamenting how social media has pretty much spoiled such sections like "goals of the week" and "Showboat" etc, as everyone has already seen them....whereas back in the day, you would have been seeing them for the first time.

I also tried to watch Fantasy Football on Sky this season, and it is f*ckin rubbish....it too used to be great

Influential?

 

[Stoned Rose]

Used to be immense but has had its day and now just gets ‘put on in the background’ by millions whilst they do something more important.

Oops wrong thread. Thought it was the Rags’ one.

 

[skillman]

Used to love it as a kid - probably because I was its target audience. Has been shit for years and chasing their ‘glory days’ for a while.

It was pretty decent back in the Lovejoy/Chamberlain days, but went right down the shitter when Goldstein came in.

Haaland has destroyed FF.

As for Soccer AM, I doubt I ever watched it more times than the fingers on one hand, and I'm not from Stoke!

Goldstein helped kill it. Soccer AM was all about real football fans and this guy came in and was a plastic cockney glory hunting United fan at the forefront of the show.

As much as I thought Soccer Am was shit.
The worst football show I ever had the misfortune of watching is Footballs On.

What an absolute bag of shite. The presenter if fucking awful and the guests know nothing even about there own teams. A waste of space if there was one.

I don’t listen anymore but Goldstein’s radio show on Talkshite is just Rag Fanboy TV (applies to most of TS but he’s the worst), every single “show” has significant Rag discussion, it really is terrible and Goldstein is one of the worst broadcasters on main stream Media.

Bullard was the final straw for me

 

[Blackley_Blue]

Haven't watched it properly in about 10 years. Stopped watching it when the same "guests" seemed to be on it 3 or 4 times a season. The only thing I enjoyed the last few times I caught some of it was the live music segment.

Absolutely loved it in my early teenage years. We had a "Save Chip" banner made up when I was playing youth Sunday league & stuck it to the coach window when travelling to a tournament. The amount of car's beeping on the motorway showed just how popular the show was, literally thousands.

 

[eastmanc]

I like it and I and I'm gutted it's going to be pulled.

 

[John Wayne]

Influential?

It was. So much football crowd behaviour in this country was influenced by the show when it was at its peak. For better or worse.

 

[RACHACE]

Shite and has been for years.

 

[blue b4 the moon]

I'm another one who stopped watching when Lovejoy & Chambelain left.

Think I watched the rag a couple of times and that was that.

Used to find the naked ramblers as the clocks went forwards/backwards especially funny.

 

[TinFoilHat]

Should have finished after 10 years. Overstayed it's welcome for decades.

 

[SomeMightSay]

I liked it. The John Stones kagool sketch, “zipped up to the top”, was ace. Always miles better than watching the fuckin cookin programme on BBC, and that cockney rag show Saturday Social before it.
