Jeff Stelling

[Randy Ostrich]

Leaving to spend more time with Rachel Riley on Countdown? Don't blame him one bit.

 

[Adamoah]

If I'm sick of anyone on that show it's Paul f***ing Merson. The bloke can barely string a full sentence together, thick as mince.

he is Soccer Saturday

big shoes to fill for someone if true

He manages to do it by being positive and not taking himself seriously, unlike sniddy sneering Lineker.

Would be a big miss tbf. He is that show

 

[THELORDRODWELL]

Jake Humphrey, Peter Schmeichel, Martin Keown, Garth Crooks and Robbie Savage is next season's line-up

I've got off him a bit. I think he's started to believe the hype about him and I don't like his betting adverts. Used to be great but I think Soccer Saturday has become a bit of a jumped up parody of itself.

Couldn't agree more, Stelling should jump at retirement, imagine having to work with those chimpanzees every week.

I see Richard Keys is applying for the job...

 

[LondonMackem]

Top blerk is Jerf, will be a sad day when he leaves the sercer werld.

Merson on the other hand can get fucked. I genuinely think he's pissed half the time when he's on the box.

I like Jeff,but at the end of the day people watch soccer Saturday to watch the results come in, not who is presenting it.

 

[BiddickHallBootBoy]

Wonder what PC formula Sky will follow in replacing our Geoff?

No-one watches BBCs or BT's version.

Statement in Hartlepool Mail saying this is a load of bollocks and he's said he won't retire before Phil Thompson as he's younger than Phil.

 

[Laidback Jack]

Can't see why Jeff would retire. He's brilliant at his job, popular, well-paid and he seems to enjoy it.

I honestly couldn't see anyone else doing that job. The way he remembers stats and goals and all them events that's happened is quality.

Seems to have a soft spot for us as well. MLF.

Fens Hotel is his pub.

Hopefully Le Tissier gets the gig. He is hilarious.

Oh all day long. All day long. Lavs a drink. Hes a top footbler.

 

[Mackemed]

Decent bloke is Jeff. Does a lot for charity. Sorry to see him go. He's been a big part of saturdays for a long time.

He promotes the north-east generally, and us as well. I think we will genuinely miss him a bit when he is gone.
