Ex-Soccer Saturday presenter Jeff Stelling joins talkSPORT
Ex-Soccer Saturday presenter Jeff Stelling has swapped the Sky Sports stable for that of the Breakfast Show on talkSPORT.
Stelling is to start the new gig in December and will work alongside Ally McCoist on Monday and Tuesday mornings, replacing the TNT Sport-bound Laura Woods.
