Jeff Stelling- Legend

I had the honour of meeting the ledgend once. Complete gent.

Met him in a hotel the night before a Chelsea match a few years back. At the time one of our group had got leukemia and couldn't go, so I asked Jeff to say hello to him the next day during soccer Saturday...

....sure enough he did it, much to my surprise. The obnoxious, drunken irish men hadn't put him off.

It then transpired that the fella who the request was for hadn't hear it, so I emailed SKY to ask could they send a copy or whatever. Got an email from Stelling himself, saying that a tape was in the post, and to let him know if there was any more problems!

Fair play to him, there's not many who'd bother to remember that sort of request. On the subject of the programme, has there ever been a bigger PITA than Phil Thompson? Can't stand the man 

[An Gaeilgoir]

To listen on Sports Saturday is a joy to behold... the man is indeed a legend!
