White Wine Question Time24 Tammi 2025

Jeff Stelling on football, family, and a career full of surprises

Joining us today is a sports broadcasting legend who revolutionised Saturday afternoon television and became the face of one of the UK’s most iconic football shows. Known for his unmatched wit, encyclopaedic knowledge of the game, and charm that has captured generations of fans, it’s the one and only Jeff Stelling!

In this episode, Jeff takes us through his extraordinary career, from his groundbreaking tenure on Soccer Saturday—where he turned an unlikely concept into must-watch TV—to his current roles at talkSPORT and Prime Video. He shares his fondest memories of working alongside legends like Chris Kamara, his surreal experiences on sets like Ted Lasso, and how he built a legacy that transcends football fandom.

Jeff also opens up about his personal life, reflecting on the lessons he learned during his early days at the Hartlepool Mail as well as his candid experiences as a parent to a child navigating the challenges of eating disorders. With all the heart, humour, and humility you’d expect from such a legend in the game, Jeff offers a rare and heartfelt glimpse into the highs and lows of not just a remarkable career, but a remarkable life too.
