Is Stelling going to be the new face of Countdown??

I was shocked to read that everyone's favourite presenter, Jeff Stelling, is tipped to become the next presenter of... Countdown!

Stelling, the legend of Soccer Saturday on Skysports is apparently in the running to host the gameshow made famous by Richard Whiteley and Carol Vorderman. To the relief of all football fans the 53 year-old Hartlepool fanatic will still be hosting the saturday afternoon result show.

Let's just hope a contestant by the name of James Brown doesn't appear on the channel 4 programme, prompting the usual response from Stelling, the audience wouldn't know what's hit them!
