Soccer AM presenter John Fendley has hailed the “wonderful memories” of the programme after its Sky axe was confirmed.
The long-running cult football programme is set to be taken off screens come the end of the season with only a couple of episodes remaining to air. Previous reports had suggested that Sky were considering scrapping Soccer AM amid a reorganisation of the channel - and that has now been announced.
A Sky statement said: "Following a thorough consultation process, Sky can confirm that the final live broadcast of Soccer AM will be on Saturday 27 May – the final weekend of the football season. Soccer AM has been hugely popular with audiences over almost three decades, engaged hundreds of celebrity guests and musical acts all brought together by a shared love of football."
