Kamara’s caption on a picture of “5 of the lads & the producer” at an event expressed his enjoyment of the night. This was followed by a comment from Marsh expressing a desire to be invited to the event next year. This prompted a response from a broadcaster spokesperson who described Marsh’s comments as “offensive and inexcusable.” In 2023, Stelling, when asked to identify “The worst colleague I’ve ever worked on screen with,” mentioned Marsh during an interview.
Stelling acknowledged Marsh’s departure from talkSPORT and labeled him as “a difficult so and so.” Thompson, a long-serving panelist on a show, departed around the same time as other colleagues in the 2020-21 season. He expressed missing the show and the camaraderie, highlighting how the team had become like a “band of brothers.” Despite the changes, he acknowledged the need for evolution and adaptation.
Thompson also reflected on the show’s impact, noting that they had become a part of people’s lives over the 16 years of its run. He emphasized the connection they had established with the audience, recognizing that even though they were not remembered as players, they were known as the faces of Soccer Saturday, which made the show a meaningful part of people’s lives.
