Jeff Stelling, the long-standing anchor of Sky Sports’ popular Soccer Saturday programme, has revealed that he is contemplating retirement.
Stelling began presenting Sports Saturday, which would later become Soccer Saturday, in 1994, alongside panels including the likes of Frank McLintock, George Best and Rodney Marsh.
The Hartlepool-born presenter hosted the Channel 4 game show Countdown from 2009 to 2001, replacing fellow sports anchor Des Lynam.
However, after spending more than 40 years in the industry, Stelling admits his thoughts have now turned to retirement. “I don’t know how much longer I’ll do presenting.
