"Whether working on a live outside broadcast or at a Sky Studios in London, it is an absolute privilege to work with Scott Quinnell. It is however in his role as a coach and presenter on the School of Hard Knocks (Sky Sports and Sky 1) that Scott's compassionate, human nature really shines through. He knows exactly when a player needs an arm around the shoulder or a sterner word in the ear, an extremely important skill when dealing with the personalities that we meet around the UK's most impoverished areas. Scott Quinnell is a superb male role model to a bunch of guys who are more often than not are lacking that figure within their own lives. He has made many a friend on the show and it is testament to Scott that he has received invitations to weddings of graduates from the School of Hard Knocks."
