VIDEO: Jeff Stelling goes absolutely apesh*t on Soccer Saturday again… and it just gets funnier

Lovable rogue

Conan Doherty

Excitement rating: Jeff Stelling.

In other words, off the charts.

It’s not easy in this day and age to be so loved. It’s not easy to be so unanimously accepted and to maintain your endearing status especially when you don’t hold back.

Yes, Jeff Stelling is a pioneer of this anonymous, digital, everyone-is-fair-game, cranky new world.

However, in the interest of balance, we think we may have found the only person on this earth who not only doesn’t like the Sky Sports presenter, but would even use that horrid ‘C’ word to describe him.

It must be sarcasm.

Because good, old Stelling put a smile on the viewers’ faces again on Saturday with another uncontrollable outburst as his beloved Hartlepool threatened to knock Derby out of the FA Cup.

An hour into the 3pm kick-offs and you’ll never guess who scored the game’s opener.

Hartlepool lost 2-1.
