Sky Sports have made the decision to cancel iconic football programme Soccer AM after almost 30 years - with just 10 episodes remaining.
The 90-minute comedy talk show will run until the end of the season but will be brought to an end amid falling ratings. Staff were informed on Tuesday that the show would be getting axed, with a round of redundancies also set to come into force at the end of the season.
Soccer AM will be replaced by alternative programme the Saturday Social which was previously broadcast at 9:30am but will now go out an hour later. A spokesperson for Sky said: “Soccer AM has played an important role in our coverage of football for the past three decades, and we continually adapt to the evolving needs of our customers.
