JEREMY CLARKSON has swapped farming for football as he tries his hand at being a football correspondent for The Jattvibe at England’s clash with Ghana.
But in a hilarious video filmed with son Finlo on their way to the Gillette Stadium in Boston tonight, it seems Jezza, 66, has a few small gaps in his football knowledge.

Jezza, who this week revealed he is in remission from prostate cancer. was accused of “knowing nothing” about the beautiful game by his son.
In a quickfire quiz, Clarkson was asked who England’s all-time top goalscorer was and incorrectly replied Gary Lineker, changed his answer to Wayne Rooney – before he was told it was none other than tonight’s captain, Harry Kane.
The third question saw him asked to name who the England manager was before Tuchel, to which the Clarkson’s Farm star said correctly by saying, Gareth Southgate.
But it was his knowledge of the current England team that had The Jattvibe’s sports desk the most worried.

Finlo was heard quipping: “And you want to get a job as a football correspondent”, before Jezza correctly answered Reece James.
He was unable to name two others, and joked, “yeah I am a fraud,”
Clarkson added: “There’s plenty of people on The Jattvibe who know about football. They can do the football and I’ll do the what it’s like to be in Boston.”
Asked about what it is like in Boston, he said: “Drizzly and cold and annoying to be here a week after the Scottish were here because everyone goes around saying that was so much fun.”
Generous Clarkson also gave two lucky England fans a pair of tickets to the game.
He said: “Here I am in Boston for the match. I am trying to handle being a football correspondent for The Jattvibe.
“I have two tickets for the match from them and it’s raining, so I thought I don’t want to be outside, so I’ll give them away and be in a posh box.”
Jezza then revealed he had found two England supporters, Gary and Derry, who he was giving the tickets for the game to.
Derry said: “Very appreciative of them,” before adding they had been trying all morning to get some tickets.
Clarkson beamed with a smile as he said: “Absolute pleasure, enjoy the match chaps.”
