I propose a national day of mourning ... From Media Guardian. 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.

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.

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.

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.
