Sky Sports sacks ANOTHER Soccer Saturday pundit as Tony Cottee reveals he has been axed from the programme after 20 years with the broadcast company... a year after Charlie Nicholas, Phil Thompson and Matt Le Tissier were all let go

Sky Sports have continued their revamp of the Soccer Saturday panel as pundit Tony Cottee has announced he has been axed from the popular show after 20 years.

The former West Ham and Everton striker took to Twitter on Monday night to reveal that he has been relieved of his duties on the show that sees former players commentate on the untelevised 3pm matches on a Saturday.

Cottee, 56, was famed for being handed matches that ended up resulting in goalless raws and his dismissal comes 12 months after Sky axed Charlie Nicholas, Phil Thompson and Matt Le Tissier from the same show.
