[Claret & Blue Army]

Vorderman will be replaced by the unknown Rachel Riley. Meanwhile presenter Des O'Connor will be replaced by the one and only Sky Sports Presenter and World's most famous Hartlepool Utd fan Jeff Stelling.

Whilst the second most famous Monkey Hangers fan (Can't believe you forgot Peter Mandelson Rich ) should be a good anchor I'm not sure Rachel Riley can realistically follow such a legend without suffering some sort of backlash and I doubt she will last long.
