Book Description

Release Date: 26 April 2012
Are you sitting comfortably? Then Jeff will begin ... The universally-loved, award-winning host of Sky Sports' Soccer Saturday and Channel 4's Countdown, and author of the bestselling Jelleyman's Thrown a Wobbly, returns with a Jackanory-style, football-flavoured narrative which gathers together the funniest, weirdest, most tragic, most heart-warming, under-the-radar stories of the football season. The book is stuffed to the gunnels with behind-the-scenes revelations, opinions and personal anecdotes from Jeff, and has a strong leaning towards the absurdities of both the highest levels and the grass-roots of the game. From the Macclesfield goalkeeper booked for using a golf tee to take his goal kicks, to the unintelligible ranting and raving of South American dictator chairmen. Let Jeff be your trusted guide through the madness of the football season, and let Jeffanory supply you with a veritable treasure trove of great anecdotes to take to the pub

5.0 out of 5 stars The funniest book this year! 26 April 2012
By Logan's Run
Format:Hardcover|Amazon Verified Purchase
There is no better storyteller in sports writing than Jeff Stelling. This book had me in stitches and was full of really interesting and hilarious tales. If you're a football fan and want to find out what goes on in Stelling towers, get this book!

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Tekkers 26 April 2012
By IpsoFacto
Format:Hardcover
Jeff is on fine form in this book - I love the idea of him sitting in Stelling towers, puffing on a cigar and wearing a smoking jacket whilst Mrs Jeff serves him a whisky. All that aside, Jeff is very funny and has an excellent memory for football's weirdest, funniest and craziest moments. As a fan of Soccer Saturday I thought that Jeff couldn't tickle my pickle any further with his smooth charm and wit... but he has!

5.0 out of 5 stars There's only one Jeff Stelling! 26 April 2012
By The Uncle
Format:Hardcover
I thought Jelleyman's Thrown a Wobbly: Saturday Afternoons in Front of the Telly was unbeatable, but I couldn't have been more wrong. A hilarious collection of anecdotes from Soccer Saturday (includes corkers from Kammy, Charlie, Mers and Le Tiss too!!) and far beyond - JEFFANORY is a book that should be sitting on every lad's coffee table.

So good!
