FOR any football fan it doesn’t get much better than settling down on a Saturday afternoon and tuning in to Gillette Soccer Saturday.
Jeff Stelling and the team provide in-depth and amusing analysis of the big games that day as well reporting every goal from every league.
And now to celebrate 10 years on the airwaves for Sky Sports Gillette Soccer Saturday, Stelling and the Soccer Saturday Sky Sports gang are hitting the road for the first time ever and completed their first leg at the BIC on Monday night.
The concept of the show is an interactive version of the programme. Jeff is the captain of the team.
He combines an encyclopaedic knowledge of football with witty quips, delivered at break neck speed.
The rest of the panel of former footballers provide the insight and analysis of the games all in their own unique style.
The panel, including ex-Bournemouth manager Harry Redknapp, regale the audience with various stories from their footballing pasts as well as anecdotes from the TV show.
Highlights of the show included Chris Kamara singing karaoke, the interactive quiz which saw the audience split into two teams, and some classic footage from the live show where things don’t always go to plan.
