Yeah, it was never really for me but it was a bit of fun and was never considered hugely scandalous at the time, especially within the context of 'lad culture' being as ubiquitous as it was.

Fond memories every Saturday morning, laughing together with my Father when he was given 6 months to live. Never forget. Never regret. 😎

I have such fond childhood memories of soccer AM. Unbelievable tekkers and skill school are just iconic to me

1997 - 2007 was TV Gold. Save Chip!, the campaign to placing the star on the England shirt, Soccerettes like Lucy Pinder and Chantelle, The Wenger Boys, Euro Boy, Fixtures Man, Lob Star, The Wrestlers, Mike Schweinberger" and "Randy Wakeman III commentary, the Colonel and Ginger, Sheephead Weather, Mancunians, Tottenham black cab driver, the end of year Dance Off, and especially Big Stan and Barry Proudfoot.

This was part of my childhood and memories with my dad watching it religiously every Saturday morning 9-12. Best morning show sky has ever made. And they absolutely sold their soul

Regarding the soccerette feature, the soccerettes weren't being exploited at all. They apply to go on, and they've already watched it so they know the drill and exactly what will happen. Nothing mysogynistic at all.

Used to love playing football early on a Saturday as a kid (lived in Wales so Football was Sat, Rugby was Sunday) and coming home to watch Soccer AM before the games kicked off. The great age shouts at the Soccerette used to make me laugh even as a kid

Soccer AM was my favourite part of the week in the late 90s/early 00s. The old man would usually cook up a big fry up and soccer am was the perfect build up to the weekend of football. But it was perfect at that time, with social media being what it is now there is just no need for a show like soccer am covering the week

It peaked with Tim and Helen. It wasn’t the same without them.

I remember watching Soccer am as a kid of a weekend in the morning, after the cartoons stopped on other channels 🤣 early 2000’s was a great time to be a kid

Completely wrong , soccerettes was the beginning of the rise not the demise . Same people objecting are quite happy to have their young daughters watch a cardi b video !

Mid 2000s, the show had peaked. I just remember knowing pretty much everything that was going on in all 4 divisions of English football and could name at least a player from most teams. Those days are long gone now, as I can barely follow my own team let alone any others. The show did have a 3 hour slot during this time and I always felt it didn't really get going until the guests started arriving but I watched it start to finish as a teenager, I lived for football at the weekend. Would never now get away with some of the stuff they did with the soccerette like Tim pretending to tie his shoelaces in front of her and Rocket hounding her in the background. I did like the main gag, Stan Hibbert,, Barry Proudfoot etc. The OG crew lineup of Fenners, Sheephead, Neil, Tubes, Robbie Knox, Rocket and others all contributed and I love how they involved them. If you followed a professional team, surely enough they would get mentioned time to time and even have fans on the show which certain other broadcasters would never have done. Nothing lasts forever and I didn't mind Max but it was done when Tim Lovejoy left but I'll never forget those mid 2000s days.

Bit cringe looking back but the Fulwell End started chanting “Get yer t**s out for the lads”. The whole ground was stunned when she started to take off the Sunderland shirt she was wearing only to reveal a Torquay top underneath to massive cheers. Anyone remember the World Cup wall in 98. “What is it?????”

I use to love waiting for whatever tunes would be playing in the goals of the week segments. So many tunes to remember

The 90’s Soccer AM FHM TFI Friday Lynx Africa Euro 96 Loaded Oasis Trainspotting Fantasy Football Blur What a time to be alive

For me, when i was a kid it was a kids show and an adults show at the same time, it had multiple levels that would capture different age groups and i'm not just talking about the soccerette, it had innuendo, sarcasm, sattire etc. By the end it was just a kids show.

It was a great show full of fun and pushing boundaries which is what all shows should do. Unfortunately it died when it was decided by TV executives that anything men like is wrong. Conventional TV is dying because it doesn’t give people what they want anymore, maybe going back to pushing boundaries and being innovative would help. It can’t be a fluk that is exactly what video sites like KZread do and people watch them and it’s not just about convenience it’s about off beat entertainment.

Phat memer amd jimmygiant really out here running the irrevarant documentry scene

Was funny with Tim and Helen, was entertaining, after they left it became over produced, forgot who the audience was and tried to change its identity, nobody wanted that. It could still be on today if it was still in that early 2000s it would be super popular today. Saturday Social is a good awful show full of kids and morons. Nothing wrong with the Socceretes, all parties enjoyed it and knew what they were getting into

Its the modern era thats the problem....

This was great. Huge part of my childhood was having bacon sandwiches and watching Soccer AM Special on Christmas Day.

Used to watch it on away trips with the Baggies in a pub somewhere... Helen was a lovely lass.

Cracking show. Remember watching the Lovejoy days with dad and loved the random bits like sheep-ups, Ally McMoist (its just a wee stain) and soccerettes etc. When lovejoy left it was still ok but lost the soul of the show.. The replacements just didnt quite stack up and didnt have the chemistry with Helen the way Lovejoy did. Some comment said that the wokeness didnt kill this but in reality it was probably one of the last nails in the coffin. The show would have just been another football discussion if not for their edgy skits and everyone involved knew what they were doing and if anything didnt it to try and propel their own “brand” on screen. For me, i stopped watching when i got my own place and refused to pay for sky, which with their costs, was probably another reason it ran out of steam as a show!

I would love you to make a video about SMart that aired in the 90's. I watched it growing up in Scotland but ended tragically in Marks passing

Soccer am was so good man. Went to a live viewing once and it was hilarious. Used to go round to the studios to get photos and autographs from the guests

It makes literally zero sense that something like soccerettes was cancelled when at the same time, nowadays, we praise women who are making a lot of money through only fans or Instagram accounts etc. It’s either exploitation or it’s not. I don’t see how modelling can be exploitation on soccer am, but empowering on Only Fans?

It literally makes no sense, but especially with women it only works when it suits their agenda.
