Kammy & Jeff Reunited: Football's Greatest Partnerships, Soccer Saturday and THAT Red Card 🤣 | Ep 1
For our first guest there was only ever one choice: a reunion with Jeff's old pal Chris Kamara to discuss football’s greatest partnerships.
What really happened when Kammy missed THAT Premier League red card at Portsmouth on Soccer Saturday? Why was their trip to the 2002 World Cup so memorable? And how did they almost meet their demise recently in Sri Lanka?
The guys also discuss Kammy coming to terms with his apraxia and they chat about some of Kammy’s favourite partnerships and how Brian Clough was almost Uncle Brian to Kammy…
Football's Greatest is a Folding Pocket production with BBC Studios.

This is Football's Greatest with Jeff Stelling, a weekly podcast where the legendary host sits down with icons of the sport - one on one - to talk about those who made a difference in the beautiful game from a players’ perspective: the top keepers, the toughest defenders, the silkiest midfielders and the deadliest strikers.
The show will also look at those who had great influence off the pitch too - the successful managers, the funniest team-mates and the most impressive leaders in the dressing room - and pay homage to indelible moments from the biggest competitions like the Premier League, Champions League and the World Cup.
Broken down into two individual episodes with each guest, Football’s Greatest will take you inside the dressing rooms of some of the best soccer teams the world has ever seen. You will hear stories that surprise you, that make you laugh out loud and that you will be thinking of and telling people about for days after.

Missed Red Cards, Soccer Saturday Memories & Football's Greatest Partnerships 🤣 Chris Kamara | Ep 1
nice to see chris getting better with his speech again… keep going 🙏 two legends
Too right 👏
go on Kammy
As a non footballer fan. That "I don't know Jeff" will always be an iconic moment in British history.
Should be compulsory viewing in schools across the country 😂
@@footballsgreatestpod we're off to fratton park where there's been a red card but for who chris kamara I don't know jeff has there I must have missed that was that a red card Chris have you not been watching I haven't I have no idea what has happened what's happened Chris I don't know jeff I don't know the Rain must have got in my eyes Jeff Chris Chris Let me tell you according to our sauces Anthony Vanden Borre has been sent of for a 2nd bookable affence get your fingers out and count up the number of how many Portsmouth players are on the field no you're right I saw him go off and I thought they we're bringing a sub on Jeff Still nil nil cutting edge reports on Gillette soccer Saturday ⚽️
Kammy is a national treasure! As is Jeff! This was beautiful to see; two old m8s having a chat💯🙏❤
I really miss them both from Soccer Saturday as they were always part of my Saturday afternoon growing up.
I feel so teary watching Chris genuinely feel so much for him I hope he keeps improving
Two absolute legends. A mainstay in my 20’s and 30’s. Saturday afternoons will never be the same again. Glad to hear Kammy’s voice is recovering. Unbelievable Jeff…😂
Tottenham... "They're fighting like beavers"😂 Such happy memories of you two.
🦫😂
Wonderful to see Chris looking so well. Jeff will never age. The man is like Peter Pan. Fabulous memories of a great time for Saturday football fans and broadcasting in the UK. I think Chris only played for us (Leeds) around 40 times. That man will always be truly loved in these parts. Thank you for the memories Lionel Richie 😉 Marching on together X
Really cheered me up seeing Kammy looking and sounding so much better, Brilliant..!!
How can you not love these 2 together!
Big part of our childhood. These men great to see chris looking and sounding great..
Something about Jeff and Kammy just feels right. Amazing
Dream duo ❤️
It is always an absolute pleasure listening to Kammy, such an insightful and knowledgeable man, always a tale to tell from his career. The highlight being "a red card for who Chris Kamara"? 😂 never stop being you, Chris ❤
Thanks for listening ⚽👑
I miss the GSS days with Jeff, Matt, Paul, Phil, Charlie and Kammy giving us comedy gold.
Two genuine football media legends! Saturday afternoons will never be the same again. Great to see Kammy again & looking and sounding so well inspite of the illness
As a Leeds fan I'm so happy kammy played for us.
Absolutely think these guys need to be on tv more great friends and real people
Kammy, what a fantastic bloke
this is when Soccer Saturday was worth watching
'No, you're right but I thought they were bringing a sub on Jeff!!' 'Cutting edge reporting as always on Soccer Saturday!' 😂😂
Never met these blokes and probably never will, but I love them so much. Absolute legends.
AS A LIVERPOOL FAN WE WOULD ALWAYS WATCH SOCCOR SATURDAY,KAMMY IS A TRUE LEGEND AND ALWAYS BROUGHT A SMILE TO EVERYONES FACES.GLAD TO SEE HE IS RECOVERING WELL FROM HIS ILLNESS AND ALL THE VERY BEST FOR THE FUTURE KAMMY CAN,T WAIT TO SEE YOU BACK ON OUR SCREEN AGAIN PAL.
Great to see Kammy in such good spirits. Top bloke!
In top form! ⚽️👑
Great to see you two legends back together again! Also brilliant to see Kammy doing so much better now speech wise, wishing you both all the best moving forward :)
Nice one Phil ⚽️👑
Two legends in Jeff Stelling and Chris Kamara. "I don't know, Jeff" is iconic. I was fortunate enough to meet Kammy in November 2023 at his autobiography book signing, such a lovely man. Paul xxx.
Brilliant Podcast and definitely hit the back of net with Kammy as first guest. Kammy, you are amazing, and Jeff, you are so much fun and down to earth. I can't wait to watch many more of this podcast. Absolute winner
Great to see you both. Beautiful warmth between you -real friendship shining through.
Still to this very day when I forget something or am uncertain I always say "I don't know, Jeff" in Chris' voice. Also, anytime something mad happens it's "UNBELIEVABLE JEFF!" I c o n i c .
Love Kammy. An absolute legend and a gentleman. Wish him the best.
Love these two . I'm glad to see Chris is on the road to recovery . I worked on a Saturday, but when I wasn't working, I'd park myself in front of soccer Saturday. It was unbelievable jeff !
Reading Kammys book at the moment. I highly recommend it. Not because it's Chris but because it's very honest about his illness has affected his life but at the same time the refusal to surrender 👍👍👍
God bless you Kammy. A true gentleman. I hope you can keep fighting and get a cure
Wow. I’m in tears watching. God bless you Chris. ❤😢
Kammy is simply the nicest, funniest and most gentlemanly like bloke in football!
Great conversation between two lovely blokes who have been lucky enough to watch on tv together for years. Fantastic to see how Kammy's speech is coming back, keep going Kammy 👍🙂
What a treat to see Kammy and Jeff glad to see Chris on the mend he is such a wonderful man
Great chat between two friends. Kammy doing well. Can't not mention that button on Jeff's shirt lasting the whole interview....Great effort by the wardrobe staff.
Kammy the Bantams Legend I Luv you like a Brother!!!...So great to see your speech getting so much better now...What a Hero u really are!!!...🐓🐔😍😍 Jeff u and Kammy together are absolute Box Office and it's so great to see u back together on this podcast!!!...I wish u was both still on Soccer Saturday together...Not the same without u two on there now along with a few others!!!...

Miss Jeff on a Saturday especially when Torquay were on soccer Saturday
Legendary couple!
2 of the absolute best and likeable lads ever on tv
I was 5 when kammy got us promoted against notts county. My earliest football related memory. Legend
Two lovely blokes who conducted this interview like two friends having a chat. I could listen to them for hours. It's very upsetting seeing Chris like this but it is nice to see that he has got better. Two wonderful people and they made sky sports a brilliant place to be and to watch. I hope Chris can improve his speech and be the happy lively person he was. I really wish all the best to both Jeff and Chris for the future. ❤
great to see these two back together 🤝
national treasure, both of em.
What a channel. What a guy. Been missed Jeff from all the north east lads and Lasses. And KAMMY, what a Guy godbless him from Safc 🏴
Great to see the lads back together and great to see Kammy getting better and better every time I see him 💪🏽❤️
Kammy.. What a legend. So glad to see him in good spirits. Looking forward to the upcoming podcasts Jeff!
As a Leeds fan I love Kammy I've also met him quite a few times as I live within a few hundred yards of him in Kirkhamgate Wakefield. Top bloke and the Sky prank with him in the Taxi in Ossett is brilliant.
What a great first episode. Love Kammy. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Terrific chat this. Bravo!
Kammy loves Leeds ✨

This was incredible. Kammy and the 'other one' are a great double act. It was like Parkinson at its best. I could listen to this for hours.

Iconic duo, trip down memory lane this! 🙌
Great to see Kammy is doing well. The bond between Jeff and Chris is so easy to see...the FOUNDATION of Soccer Saturday!
Love this, proper football chat 👊🏼
😢 BRILLIANT! 😢
Love Chris Kamara! My dad used to watch him play for Swindon ❤
'Kin hell do I miss these two.
Miss seeing these two legends
I mean it had to be Kammy as the first guest. You 2 and others on soccer Saturday made my Saturday afternoons growing up. Love seeing Kammy doing well, and you 2 will be up there with my our generation sports version of Morecombe and Wise.
Great podcast. The Goats of Soccer Saturday, thanks for the memories boys 🫡
Miss both these guys on Soccer Saturday , great first guest.
absolutely brilliant guys, many thanks, excellent chat between two legends
Nice one Will ⚽👑
Amazing interview from Jeff to the "Unbelievable" Chris "KAMMY" Kamara. If I liked you both before, now I cannot state how much I feel about you two. Stay Strong Kammy! You are a winner no matter what! All the best for both.
Add a comment... 0 seconds ago It must be truly wonderful for Chris to discover just how loved He is "By everyone" - Saturdays were an absolute sporting Heaven for millions, thanks to Jeff, Chris and the rest of the Gang. As they have mentioned, Saint & Greavsie were the forerunners for such a show and I never thought they could be replaced. I smiled when Chris said "I always thought you were Saint, Jeff" :-) I sincerely hope the additional medical procedure in Mexico results in further improvement for 'Kammy'
This was absolutely fantastic, two great guys who obviously have so much care and respect for each other.Great to see Chris in fine form and being positive and upbeat,you are both loved by millions of us and it was such a joy to watch this.Jeff and Chris are national treasures,thanks for this lads.
Nice one 👍
2 legends.. I used to love watching soccer Saturday at weekends, because of these 2 but also the old 4 and the likes of bianca Westwood too.. the good old times, I have Jeff, kammy and all the old guard to thank for making me look forward to Saturday ⚽️
Loved the first episode, looking forward to more!
Top man Ry ❤️
Already an outstanding addition to talksport... now starting your own podcast, keep it going! Mr McCoist on soon? I love Kammy, made me cry listening to him on other podcasts opening up about overcoming recent struggles. Both legends.
I’m watching this on my iPad with Soccer Saturday on the telly. Still the best football scores show but it’ll never be the same again. Looking forward to the rest of this series.
Incredible, any football fan my age will love this episode, Jeff, how are you going to do a better one than this? This is a 10/10. Just scored a worldie on your debut, it can't get any better.
Well, this is lovely. Kammy, love the guy: me for his footy and footy commentary and my young lad (and me again) for Ninjas Warrior. How can you not smile and laugh when he’s on your screen!
Great to see the two of you back together! Will always remember Kammy reporting at Portsmouth on the sending off incident. Jeff, soccer Saturday was always part of my weekend so thank you! Looking forward to seeing what guests you will have on here.
So brilliant to see,and listen, to Kammy being so fit and well, great podcast Jeff
Two absolute legends of the game.. A pleasure to grow up watching them both..Unbelievable Jeff... Countless amazing shouts and funny moments. "There's been a goal at craven cottage but which ways it gone.. Alan mcinally".. Absolute classic 😂😂😂😂.. Great to see them together again ❤❤❤❤
I hope Kammy is OK, I can't help but think that there's a problem somewhere. God bless you Kammy, keep safe. 🙏
Fantastic stuff. Thanks so much for such a wonderful episode, you couldn’t have kicked off in a better way. Brought a tear to my eye seeing Chris chat away so beautifully.

I just want to say thanks to Jeff and Chris for talking about mens problems. Men don't like to talk about health stuff, maybe we feel weak talking about it?
I think we do feel weak talking about it.
