Chris Sutton has brilliantly called out Simon Jordan of TalkSPORT.
The man that drove Crystal Palace into administration now spends most of his mornings sharing his brilliance, expertise and intelligence with Jim White.
TalkSPORT is effectively Reform FM where pasty faced middle aged and elderly men share their disdain for modern society.
Celtic and the Celtic support isn’t their target audience.
With Ally McCoist, Jason Cundy and Adrian Durham throughout the day it is catering for a very clearly defined audience.
Celtic’s success ensures that Scottish football is rarely discussed. When it is it is almost always in a negative sense.
After Danny Rohl crumbled in the run-in the lads at TalkSPORT went all in on Hearts.
The so-called fairy-tale created by Tony Bloom was simply a mask to cover up the contempt that the radio station has for all things Celtic.
Led by Jordan and the nodding dog that is White. The Kelvinside boy that likes to dress up in Orange sashes for a bit of banter.
There is an expression; that it is better to keep your mouth shut and appear stupid,than open it and remove all doubt !
A) I would and will most certainly say it to Martin O’neil’s face
B)Hearts winning the SPL, to most people without bias would see it as a shot in the arm…— Simon Jordan (@Sjopinion10) May 16, 2026
TalkSPORT couldn’t care for Scottish football , but it knows that it can bring in a committed audience.
Jordan isn’t interested in Hearts or Scottish football. Celtic’s success is unavoidable. Even in London and his Spanish haunts.
Put the boot into Celtic and you’ll get more buy-in that discussing Newcastle United, Aston Villa or Chelsea.
The reaction to a late penalty awarded at Motherwell confirmed how unhinged much of legacy media really is.
SIMON JORDAN AND TALKSPORT CAN’T HANDLE CELTIC SUCCESS
The detail hasn’t been examined. All that mattered was that Celtic won with a stoppage time penalty. In the second last round of fixtures.
Sam Nicholson raced backwards, raised an elbow into the face of Auston Trusty and used his hand to cushion a header away from the goal-mouth.
The only question to be asked is why John Beaton never awarded a penalty.
Having denied Daizen Maeda a first half penalty Andrew Dallas had no option but to recommend a review.
Denying Celtic two penalties in a critical match was taking things too far.
Jordan and White should be back on air at 10am this morning.
No doubt they will be tut-tutting about the fans that invaded the pitch.
You are highly unlikely to hear award about David Roome’s decision to disallow Maeda’s critical second goal. Fortunately VAR had no option but to over-rule that decision.
