“Sunday Supplement used to be, without exception, my favourite podcast. Always my first listen on a Monday above anything else. Unfortunately that show is dead. It died when Neil Ashton left. The whole beauty of the show was the insight of a wide range of journalistic voices across the print media spectrum offering a well connected and well informed view on what was happening in football. Now it’s nothing of the sort. Darren Lewis is left to carry the whole thing on his shoulders. I always enjoyed him as one of the guests on the show but leaving him with Vicky Gommorsall and some inane ex pro be it Morrison, Mills or Agbonlahor this isn’t the Sunday Supplement!!! I don’t understand why Sky felt the need to change the format - football journalists discussing the world of football. I know Sky think they are committed to diversification and applaud that ethos. But surely you would have been better to actually replace Neil Ashton with Darren Lewis as the presenter and still give a platform to some of the excellent BAME journalists that used to appear on the show such as Vashali Bhardwaj & Jonathan Liew. This current format just stinks of patronising tokenism whilst all your main pundits & presenters continue to be white men. I implore you to have a rethink for next season and try and return to what made the show great. Until then I will be unsubscribing and listening to the Football Writers pod from BT Sport”
