Jeff Stelling dances on Soccer Saturday for final time with Sky Sports icon stepping down

The legendary Jeff Stelling has never missed a chance to cheer a Hartlepool goal during his 30 years with Sky Sports - and there was no way he was going to let their equaliser at Stockport County pass him by either.

Stelling will step down from his role at the end of the season, this time insisting his decision is final. The 68-year-old initially announced he was quitting after the 2021/22 campaign, but later reversed that call to the delight of football fans all over the UK.

His final live show will come on Sunday, May 28, the culmination of the Premier League season. But Monday proved his last chance to provide live updates on his beloved Hartlepool, having amusingly never hidden his exhilaration and despair when goals have gone in during games involving the Pools.
