It’s believed the interview will be broadcast live on air but the decision to bring in Armstrong hasn’t gone down well, with many taking to social media to voice their disapproval.
A statement on the Off The Ball Facebook page read;
“He's a man we've covered extensively as a show. From his glory days, right through to his downfall, his story is undeniably incredible.
“Tonight, he joins us on the show. Join us from 7 o'clock to hear it in full.
“Later this month (21st), he'll be appearing at 'One-Zero', the sports and tech conference.”
