We all find something funny about any sports when they slip whilst kicking a football or when you see a hilarious wide ball in cricket but for me, being a massive TV fan, there is only one person who comes to mind and that's Jeff Stelling.
Yes, the huge Hartlepool fan, 53 years of age and is the face behind Gillette Soccer Saturday, shown every Saturday afternoon on Sky Sports 1 and News.
When Hartlepool score, he's over ecstatic, especially when one James Brown scores. He brings out a model of the singer and dances 'I feel good!' The likes of Matt Le. Tissier, Paul Merson, Phil Thompson and Charlie Nicholas join him!
However, when Hartlepool concede, it's another story! He get's a little carried away, as normal and then apologises for his 'unprofessionalism'. We've all been there, Jeff!
Now, Jeff Stelling this year is still with Soccer Saturday but also, for the weekdays, alongside Rachel Riley and Susie Dent presents Countdown. This programme, previously hosted by Des O'Connor and Carol Vorderman is all about consonants, vowels and numbers.
Jeff, started in January, has attracted more people to watch the show and now on average, 1 million people watch every day! If you want to see Jeff in action such as 'Middlesbrough rant' and an example of the Jeff dance, go onto the YouTube website and search for 'Jeff Stelling'!
I hope you enjoy the masterpiece of a true legend on UK television!
