THE CATFLAP CHINWAG WITH…

Andy Goldstein

There's not many people who would step up to the Soccer AM plate in the wake of Lovejoy's departure, but then there's not many people like Andy Goldstein...

 

First things first, how is the show post-Lovejoy?
It's a good question but I think a more pertinent one is how is Lovejoy post the show, don't you?

 

Perhaps. So whose idea was it to retire his shirt?
Everyone's really. It was the least we could do. After all, he was part
of the furniture round here and it would have been weird not to have
done something special for him.

 

Have you ever used your new-found status on the show in a 'do you know who I am' moment yet?
Does saying it to security at the front gate with only ten minutes to go
until you're on air count?

 

Have you had really embarrassing moments on air to date?
I shouldn't say but it was probably the time that Helen passed wind at the exact moment I stopped talking.

 

If you could pick anyone to go on the show, living or dead, who
would it be?
Would the dead person be dead still or do you mean as they were when they were alive?
