A Nine spokesperson said the decision was made 'mutually and amicably'.

"Sam Newman has been a part of the football landscape in Melbourne for generations," the spokesperson said."We thank Sam for his service with Nine over several decades.

His contribution toNewman said on Twitter his years at Nine had been "fantastic"."The 9 network and I have MUTUALLY decided that, in the station's best interests, I withdraw form appearing on their programs - forthwith. And, for me, the last 35-odd years have been fantastic. Really!"

He has to face reality. He’s no longer relevant. He had a good run. He was funny and entertaining. However, PC culture destroyed his show. It turned into garbage. The front bar is killing it because no feminist, leftist influences.

Yes I’ve heard Sam is a very amicable type 🙄 looking forward to the memoirs

Nah, it wasn’t.....

Such a shame.. angry old rich dude sacked. Can't stand him, he will say anything to upset folks under the bullshit banner of speaking the truth and being an Aussie blokey legend. Clearly loves stirring shit up. Get him off the air.

Eddie got him the gig.Then Eddie was given the heads up Sam had to go.Then Eddie told Sam he had to resign. How long before Eddie gets him a gig on FOXFOOTY. Eddie has a histiry of racist remarks..Adam Goodes & sexist comments about Caroline Wilson. Channel9 Eddie needs to go.

Even the bogans won’t miss this “man”

Too much oxygen being given here. He’s a racist and sexist whose had a long career. No need for shock or pity. moreimportantthings

Well, they would say that.

About time ALL of the commercial stations took a good look at the idiotic and brainless shows they produce.

Sam should have got a new brain rather than a new face all those yeas ago.

Surrrrreeee

As a New South Welshman & a NON sports fan, It's a case of Sam who?

Good riddance to bad garbage.

I always thought he was amusing.

Bullshit Channel9 were inundated with complaints about this vile man and his vile comments

The question has to be asked: Why was he given the gig in the first place? The problem here is Nine not Newman.

Bye bye to the Groom of Wieldenstein.

Finally!

Should’ve happey 35 years ago and his dip shit mate McGuire

Good

Always lovely to end the day with some good news

Good luck with that one. Nice reporting lies isn’t it. Cancel culture, the Australian version. Sam has yet to say anything that is factually incorrect, even thought he’s paid and loved for his opinion. Guess the mob mobilised and his employer pandered to them. Weak

So long Sam! He'll be remembered as having played some footy once, then became a caricature of himself regaling us with his irrelevant oddball hatred, he'll not be missed.

I can remember when it was OK to be controversial

He was never the same after the cosmetic surgery.

More like.... they suck cause they are woke and Sam told them to stick it!

What are the odds Pauline recruits this idiot for OneRacist? auspol BLM BlackLivesMatterAustralia

Only 30 years late 🙄

Until he gets on the turps 🍻 🤪 Then it's off goes the head and on goes the Pumpkin🎃!

Finally

Why did it take so long?

Mutual and amicable = damage control BLM

Yes and when things quite down he will be back! Like a bad smell Origsmartassam samnewman

No doubt Newmans spitting chips!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Jeez, they will be breaking out the beers to see the back of this trouble maker...

What do you think - Did the idea of a LeBron racial vilification lawsuit help them make this decision? I hope he gets interested and launches a test of our race vilification laws. Maybe some civil-rights minded barrister’s might take up the challenge. KingJames

Best news today. Sad. Old. Man. bonvoyage seeya byebye

Overdue

Sam Newman's Footy Show: a retrograde carnival of cliches tested at a nightclub urinals. Good riddance.

Does anyone remember Sam being funny? I don't either.

So nine backs in the bloke that holds a gun to a pregnant women’s stomach in a home invasion. WOW

woollogirl So no tongue

he was starting to look like jocelyn wildenstein anyway

Not worth dignifying this sub human with a comment

karenricks When was the last time he made a relevant point about football?

Did he mutually leave the network like the advertiser & PR backlash that caused Alan Jones to mutually end his tenure?

Good riddance to this creep.

35years late. He is proof that within the AFL Bubble of Victoria, they can’t see Sam 4 what he is; a bigot

jamesdunlevie Anonymous Nine spokesperson? Can't put their name to it even to their own masthead?

More time to play golf ?

EADS

I don’t think so, they did it before the advertisers did.

Remember those years when Sam was popular and really relevant....me neither

When you can no longer blink it's time to stop

Good

Bolton says Trump not fit for office, lacks the 'competence' to be PresidentPresident Donald Trump is not 'fit for office' in part because he was solely focused on his political fortunes, his former national security adviser John Bolton said in a TV interview. Soros must be paying Bolton a shit load of money to discredit Trump! Interesting how the book came out just before the election. Impeccable timing. I guess he was wrong!! I actually can’t believe that the ABC interviewed “bombs away” Bolton at taxpayer expense. I guess the enemy of the ABC’s enemy is their friend.
