Are you sitting comfortably? Then Jeff will begin … The universally-loved, award-winning host of Sky Sports’ Soccer Saturday and Channel 4’s Countdown, and author of the bestselling Jelleyman’s Thrown a Wobbly, returns with a Jackanory-style, football-flavoured narrative which gathers together the funniest, weirdest, most tragic, most heart-warming, under-the-radar stories of the football season. The book is stuffed to the gunnels with behind-the-scenes revelations, opinions and personal anecdotes from Jeff, and has a strong leaning towards the absurdities of both the highest levels and the grass-roots of the game. From the Macclesfield goalkeeper booked for using a golf tee to take his goal kicks, to the unintelligible ranting and raving of South American dictator chairmen. Let Jeff be your trusted guide through the madness of the football season, and let Jeffanory supply you with a veritable treasure trove of great anecdotes to take to the pub

Reviews

FourFourTwo magazine
Praise for Jelleyman's Thrown a Wobbly: "a fascinating peek behind the scenes ... such an enjoyable read"
When Saturday Comes
"Fast-paced, laddish and written to amuse, this is the story of a happy man doing a great job very well"
Shortlist
"Saturday footy would be lost without anchorman Jeff Stelling. Here, he shoes how Soccer Saturday became the weekend's unlikely television highlight"
Sunday Express
"An absorbing read"
