Vital Comp: Win A Copy Of Jeff Stelling's Book
Vital Football Competition - Win one of ten copies of Jeff Stelling's new book.
What is it about Sky Sport`s Soccer Saturday - a six-hour long, studio-based show with no live action pictures - that can hold so many football fans enthralled every Saturday afternoon of the season? Now Jeff Stelling the show`s legendary anchorman reveals all in his deliciously chaotic, hugely entertaining, anecdote-ridden and humorous book about life in front of the videprinter.
In Jelleyman`s Thrown a Wobbly, Jeff Stelling celebrates the finest one-liners (James Brown's grabbed a second for Hartlepool. I feel good!), tells the secrets of his encyclopaedic knowledge of the game, and shares his thoughts on the show`s illustrious pundits over the years - including George Best, Rodney Marsh, Chris Kamara, Charlie Nicholas and Matt Le Tissier.
Jelleyman`s Thrown a Wobbly is out this April in hardback - order a copy at Amazon.co.uk.
For an exclusive chance TO WIN one of 10 copies via Vital Football, just answer this simple question:
Which league one side does Jeff famously support?

We had some great fun in the rain at the end of JH Lower where they erected the Sky TV box for the Spurs game, we were singing 'There's only one Jeff Stelling' and stuff and getting the thumbs up back etc from Jeff. .He looked just as tense as Caldwell up there, willing the lads on

Jeff Stelling is a genius and, when not able to get along to see The Clarets on a Saturday, wasting six hours in front of Soccer Saturday is a great substitute.
