Jodami Posted August 26, 2020 Share Posted August 26, 2020 This should have happened years ago, can only think they are keeping Merson as he is not the most stable of individuals.

GinRummy Posted August 27, 2020 Share Posted August 27, 2020 (edited) 7 minutes ago, Lord BJ said: I believe that is the plan. Micah Richards and Alex Scott, being lined up I believe. I can understand moving on from the panel as they would only really be known to people in their 40’s and above. I don’t think they are all that touch in modern football. A move to a more diverse panel makes sense and more in touch with demographics. Will be interesting to see who they go for. Hopefully people who are a bit more in touch with the modern game, I like Alex Scott as a presenter albeit her analysis always seems a bit lightweight to me. However, think she would be a very good addition. Just as long John Barnes doesn’t turn up in the panel show. He’s ****ing awful. Would quite like to see some fresh blood coming in of players recently retired, I rarely watch soccer saturday these days. Got a bit bored by the same tired humour every week. The bt sport version is pish but I found myself sticking that on more often then not. Long overdue a shake up. Be interesting to see who they choose. Micah Richards seems to be getting mentioned in the press. I think he'd be decent. Edited August 27, 2020 by GinRummy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Locky Posted August 27, 2020 Share Posted August 27, 2020 Charlie Nicholas is a ****. He'll get a gig at TalkSport with his pal Jim White doing some 'Scottish football show' which consists purely of Celtic and Rangers chat. Phil Thomson is getting on a bit I suppose, but Le Tissier was a bit of a surprise. Part of what makes Soccer Saturday so entertaining is the rapport among all the pundits. When you watch it on an international week when it's just lower league games and they have stand ins, it's just not the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was a chemistry with them all though that made it entertaining to watch at times. Be interesting to see who they bring in as replacements but no doubt this is a move to have a bit more diversity. Which is absolutely fine if the replacements are actually capable.
