Jeff Stelling reacts to Sky Sports cuts with long-serving reporters at risk of axe

Legendary Soccer Saturday host Jeff Stelling has been left 'shocked and saddened' after the extent of staff cuts at Sky Sports were revealed.

Stelling has presented the flagship programme since 1994, though came close to leaving the job at the end of last season. That was in response to a first round of cuts that saw Phil Thompson, Charlie Nicholas and Matt Le Tissier leave the broadcaster.

But a fresh round of cuts are set to be made, with major changes to Sky's coverage of football. That includes the cancellation of Saturday morning staple Soccer AM, as well as a shake-up of the reporting team who work on Soccer Saturday.
