Axed Soccer Saturday stars Phil Thompson, Charlie Nicholas and Matt Le Tissier have launched their own rival TV show, produced by Manchester's Chief for Paddy Power. The trio were sacked by the Sky Sports show, fronted by Jeff Stelling, last month.
National Football LeagueThe top announcers make more than $1 million a season. Industry averages are not published by sport or league, but major TV broadcast networks pay the top salaries and often hire former star players to their broadcast teams.
Jeff Stelling has opened up on Sky Sports' decision to break-up their long-standing Soccer Saturday panel. Last week, the broadcasters sacked Matt Le Tissier, Phil Thompson and Charlie Nicholas, all of whom had one year left on their contracts. Stelling, the popular host of the show remains, as does Paul Merson.

The Black Lives Matter badges have been worn across Sky Sports channels since the broadcast of live sport resumed in the UK a fortnight ago. The movement has gained significant global momentum and support since the killing of black American George Floyd by a white policeman in the United States last month.
The popular retired English footballer, current Sky Sports broadcaster and now Skechers ambassador will be the first lifestyle collection endorsee that the global footwear brand has signed specifically for Europe.
What is the man-shaped badge? The pin-badge worn by Sky Sports host Jeff Stelling is in the shape of the logo of the Prostate Cancer UK charity. The 'Man of Men' badge is part of the charity's campaign to raise awareness about the risks of prostate cancer.
Together, as players, managers and pundits, they're helping bring awareness of prostate cancer to millions of football fans every week. Thank you to all the football family for your support. With your help, we will change the game for men with prostate cancer.
The visibility they brought both in their local communities and across national media outlets by proudly wearing the Prostate Cancer UK badge throughout the season helped raise awareness of our cause to millions of football fans.
The Premier League begins tomorrow and it will mark the beginning of a new era for the show, with Jeff Stelling remaining as presenter. Stelling will still be joined by Paul Merson and Chris Kamara, but Saturday will see him joined by Sue Smith, Clinton Morrison, Alan McInally and Glen Johnson.
Kelly currently presents Sky Sports Friday Night Football coverage of the Premier League, and the EFL live coverage on Saturday evenings at 5:30 pm. She also presents a weekly debate show for SKY as well as co-hosting 606 with Ian Wright on Sundays on Radio 5 Live.

Sky Sports Mix has been removed from channel 121 but is available via the sky go app. I find it most annoying that Sky advertise programs that are on Skysports mix but they have removed it from channel 121.
The free games can be found on Sky Pick (channel 159) and on Freeview (channel 144). Over on NOW TV, free-to-air matches will be shown on Sky Pick, available via Freeview, and Sky One, available on the Entertainment Pass.
Soccer AM tweeted: “Unfortunately due to the ongoing situation regarding the coronavirus we are sorry to have to announce that tomorrow's Soccer AM has been cancelled. Love from everyone at Soccer AM.”
