Title: Lovejoy leaving Soccer Am Post by: Panda Paws on Tuesday, June 5, 2007, 08:16:23 I propose a national day of mourning ...
From Media Guardian. Quote Tim Lovejoy is leaving as presenter of Sky Sports show Soccer AM after 10 years, bringing to an end one of the longest-running screen partnerships on UK TV, with co-host Helen Chamberlain. Lovejoy is understood to be leaving Soccer AM to present a new entertainment show for Simon Fuller's 19 TV. He is said to be on verge of signing a deal with Mr Fuller to host a new celebrity TV show that will have a strong internet element. Lovejoy is understood to have already filmed a pilot for the new show, which 19 TV is pitching to various UK broadcasters. He is also believed to be planning to take a handful of colleagues to his new show from Soccer AM, which attracts around 300,000 viewers to Sky Sports 1 every Saturday morning. However, a Sky Sports spokesman confirmed that Soccer AM would be returning with Chamberlain and a new co-presenter at the start of the 2007-08 football season.

Chelski fan .. whats the betting the new presenter is a Man U fan .. gotta love Sky!
Title: Lovejoy leaving Soccer Am Post by: Ginginho on Tuesday, June 5, 2007, 08:56:55 Soccer AM got boring a long time ago, and Lovejoy is a cock anyway.
It hopefully might improve with a new presenter and some fresh ideas. Title: Lovejoy leaving Soccer Am Post by: Sippo on Tuesday, June 5, 2007, 09:00:33 Quote from: "Chris BS32" Quote from: "Sippo" Soccer am died a death a long time ago imo. :shock: Find it same everyweek. Gets a bit tedious. Title: Lovejoy leaving Soccer Am Post by: Panda Paws on Tuesday, June 5, 2007, 09:03:33 Quote from: "fatbury" Never liked Lovejoy anyway ..

It'll probably be the bloke that does the All Sports Show - Andy Goldstein - and guess what ... he's Man Yoooouuuuuu Title: Lovejoy leaving Soccer Am Post by: Samdy Gray on Tuesday, June 5, 2007, 09:06:10 I can't stand that Andy Goldstein, he really is a cock.

Gets a bit tedious. have to agree Title: Lovejoy leaving Soccer Am Post by: juddie on Tuesday, June 5, 2007, 09:25:22 I have to agree - a great ground breaking show that seems to be in need of a shakeup. I find Tim Lovejpy arrogant and not that funny anyway... no loss IMO.
Title: Lovejoy leaving Soccer Am Post by: Rich Pullen on Tuesday, June 5, 2007, 09:49:55 I've been watching the Skysports weekend morning football coverage since a more serious show presented by Gary Stevens, Jane Hoffen and Russ Williams was on (anyone else remember that?) - so like many I've watched Soccer AM throughout the last 10 years - But I grew out of it (which sounds stupid) - it's the same every week and Tim Lovejoy's ego has enhanced by the minute.
Lovejoy clearly wants to be known by the masses and not the cult following he receives doing Soccer AM. It'll probably get a slightly altered format which will be good for the show. Title: Lovejoy leaving Soccer Am Post by: fatbury on Tuesday, June 5, 2007, 09:57:24 I want Dermot O Leary to do it but he'll be too busy i expect what with X Factor and BBLB
How about Russell Brand? OH YES! Title: Lovejoy leaving Soccer Am Post by: Nemo on Tuesday, June 5, 2007, 10:01:41 LOVEJOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOY
Ah well, as long as Helen Chamberlain stays, lovely way to wake up in the morning. Title: Lovejoy leaving Soccer Am Post by: Rich Pullen on Tuesday, June 5, 2007, 10:07:03 Quote from: "fatbury" I want Dermot O Leary to do it.... How about Russell Brand? OH YES! :| Title: Lovejoy leaving Soccer Am Post by: Give us an S on Tuesday, June 5, 2007, 10:13:09 Im gutted he is leaving. Unfortunately i think he will take Fenners with him. He is the true star of the show. An absolute legend!
Title: Lovejoy leaving Soccer Am Post by: janaage on Tuesday, June 5, 2007, 10:14:21 This is great news, the bloke has got a bigger head than that bloke out of the goonies. Good riddance to the bloke.
I stopped watching Soccer Am a few years ago, but started again when it got put on Sky 1. Good laugh at times but some of the material is wearing thin - the soccerette item, is identical to when it was first shown.

Title: Lovejoy leaving Soccer Am Post by: Panda Paws on Tuesday, June 5, 2007, 10:21:21 Quote from: "RichPullen" I've been watching the Skysports weekend morning football coverage since a more serious show presented by Gary Stevens, Jane Hoffen and Russ Williams was on (anyone else remember that?) - Yep ... those were the days! Cheap-o Sky Sports!!!! Title: Lovejoy leaving Soccer Am Post by: Matchworn Shirts on Tuesday, June 5, 2007, 10:26:56 I thought that program was crap and that cockney prat did nothing to improve it
Title: Lovejoy leaving Soccer Am Post by: Bob's Orange on Tuesday, June 5, 2007, 10:30:15 Well I enjoyed Soccer AM, the guests were often pretty good and I like the music on it as well, in fact I have bought a few albums on the back of hearing songs on Soccer AM (Cold War Kids notably). Lovejoy is obviously an egotistical nob but I didn't let that get in the way of my watching the show most weeks.
Title: Lovejoy leaving Soccer Am Post by: Arriba on Tuesday, June 5, 2007, 10:32:55 fenners and sheep head make that show.if they go it will be worse off but loosing lovejoy aint a big loss imo.
i say bring back the fella from brookside!!!! :wink: Title: Lovejoy leaving Soccer Am Post by: Bob's Orange on Tuesday, June 5, 2007, 10:34:30 Quote from: "arriba" fenners and sheep head make that show.if they go it will be worse off but loosing lovejoy aint a big loss imo. i say bring back the fella from brookside!!!! :wink: Sheephead is ace, topless weather always makes me laugh. Title: Lovejoy leaving Soccer Am Post by: Northern Red on Tuesday, June 5, 2007, 11:44:01 Richard Hammond or Dermot O'Leary would be good...
Johnny Vaughan's not doing too much at the moment is he? Title: Lovejoy leaving Soccer Am Post by: neville w on Tuesday, June 5, 2007, 11:48:59 Thet did (briefly and unsuccessfully) try to change the format about 5 years ago - only lasted a couple of weeks
I think it needs a complete overhaul or axing . Now Torquay are non-league it'll make things more difficult as there's a degree of lower league involvement gone. Title: Lovejoy leaving Soccer Am Post by: fatbury on Tuesday, June 5, 2007, 11:50:14 after a bit of thought ....I think Flammable Ben should take over and he could introduce some of his pals as the series went on .. Yeovil Red .. Mex .. Chubbs .. Bennett
that would be wicked! Title: Lovejoy leaving Soccer Am Post by: land_of_bo on Tuesday, June 5, 2007, 12:00:56 As long as it isn't that knobber that does "You're on Sky Sports" and Goals on Sunday (Rob McAfree?) then that's alright.
Richard Hammond? Russell Brand? WTF do they know about football? Title: Lovejoy leaving Soccer Am Post by: mattboyslim on Tuesday, June 5, 2007, 12:04:42 I think Brand is a bit of a fan - I suspect he's plastic though, for no other reason than I hate the bloke. No way that Hammond would do it IMHO.
Title: Lovejoy leaving Soccer Am Post by: red macca on Tuesday, June 5, 2007, 12:05:10 Chris kamara :D
or peter shreeves or tubes Title: Lovejoy leaving Soccer Am Post by: Rich Pullen on Tuesday, June 5, 2007, 12:08:32 His replacement will be someone like Ralf Little or someone who's a regular guest.
Title: Lovejoy leaving Soccer Am Post by: OOH! SHAUN TAYLOR on Tuesday, June 5, 2007, 12:57:39 If they took out the whole Soccerette segment and replaced it with something else it would be a whole lot better.
I mean, what is it with repeating the same gags week after week after week????? Is it supposed to get funnier each time? Soccerette comes on: "Badabadabadabadabadabadabada BING!" Lovejoy: "Are you single?" Soccerette: "Yes" HOORAY!!!!! Clip of previous week's Crossbar Challenge Team jumping around Lovejoy: Do you have a boyfrend? Soccerette: "Yes" BOOOOOOOOOO!!!!! Ricky Hatton or some one like that giving the thumbs down. L: How long have you been going out? S: 4 Years L and rest of studio: "It will never last!" Then it's endless clips of people doing that body building thing. Week after week. FUCK OFF! DO SOMETHING DIFFERENT! It's like comedy for people with autism!!!!! Anyway, apart from that section I think the show is actually quite good with some good guests. Get that cunt Lovejoy off and it will be even better. Please God they don't replace him with Ralph Little. He loves himself almost as much as Lovejoy :? Goldstein would be ok I think. I wouldn't mind seeing Russel Brand do it either. The show would be totally different if he did. I don't think he's a plastic either, he's been going to West Ham for years (Unlike Cuntjoy who used to support Watford!!!) Maybe they could have a different guest presenter each week like they do on HIGNFY? Title: Lovejoy leaving Soccer Am Post by: Jamiesfuturewife on Tuesday, June 5, 2007, 13:05:34 Tim Lovejoy brought me a drink once - many years ago!!
some of the other shows Tim Lovejoys done have been god awful though- like that poor mans top gear they show on channel 5! and that chat show thing when he does cooking and stuff! :?

Fucking hell OST apart from me being a half jock ****, I forget sometimes how similar your out look on certain in life is to mine. The soccerette, ralph little, wussell brand, TL being an ex-watford supporter comments all spot on!! Title: Lovejoy leaving Soccer Am Post by: OOH!

No way the bloke's a cock smoker on TV. Tubes, not sure who he is. And as for Peter Shreeves why would an old fella, who used to manage Spurs want to present Soccer AM? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peter_Shreeves Title: Lovejoy leaving Soccer Am Post by: Bob's Orange on Tuesday, June 5, 2007, 14:29:44 Slightly off topic but as there was talk of Jocks, here is an email I just got from my mate.

Title: Lovejoy leaving Soccer Am Post by: sonic youth on Tuesday, June 5, 2007, 16:07:31 never liked lovejoy, helen's ok. i've got a bit of respect for her as she actually does follow torquay.
goldstein's alright. they ought to bring in someone entirely new though. anyone else watch cricket am? the two presenters on there - simon thomas and anita rani - are quality, puts soccer am to shame. don't be a soccerette charlotte, you're far too classy for that. Title: Lovejoy leaving Soccer Am Post by: lebowski on Tuesday, June 5, 2007, 18:05:37 i like goldstein from his mosconi cup work - severely under-rated.
simon thomas though doesn't strike me as a natural presenter. he doesn't look like he understands his auto-cue and should stick to news reading. mike wedderburn on the other hand...
