Pains me to say this, but Simon Jordan has really grown on me. Obviously, it's Jim White's show, so it's not hard to shine or look smart in comparison, but he brings up some very valid points and then takes the most extreme side of his opinion to defend it. I like that, it makes great radio. Yeah, he gets on a rant here and there, maybe hogs the air a bit when he gets passionate, but if it wasn't for him and Bob Mills this show would stink.

Today Jordan has taken a swipe at the PFA because it takes too much money out of the game and does essentially nothing of any value.

The show is awful. And he add nothing whatsoever. Just cringeworthy.

The best thing about Jim White is Max Rushden's parody voice of him shouting "Roland Duchatelet".

Which is a pretty damning indictment.

Some french bloke: "What if that man with a phone had a knife? Or mental problems? A terrorist"
Jim White; "omg..."

Jim has an enlightening moment, he sounded like he'd never considered a pitch invader might be a loony. Jesus, I swear, he's the only bloke who I wake up and wish ill health on. Nothing serious, just a sore throat or ingrowing toenail, enough to make him stay home and Max Rushden or Andy Goldstein get the call.

On the issue, like this hasn't been a risk for decades, generations of fans, but it's not happened yet in the UK so how about we don't start making a problem where there clearly isn't one. Focus should be on the stewards, not the possibility this guy might've maybe could've been a suicide bomber. jokes.

Does anyone else feel like cutting his face off and flushing it down the toilet every time he calls Martin keown Martin ‘keyon’?

He's in Dublin today ahead of the rugby tomorrow and thinks he's funny putting on a leprechaun Irish accent now and again. It's not.

He's got such a big ego for someone who's essentially a nobody. There are very few sportsmen with an ego as big as his.

Really hope bringing in Sawyer last year to co-host is the first step towards pushing this bellend out.

He makes Durham tolerable.

I agree, I said the self same thing to David Ginola just the other day :cautious:
Is know, Dave told me...

The other thing with White is his constant “I was there” comments. He was at it again today, banging on about being in Sheffield for the boxing to see “his mate” boxing.

I’m sure Natalie Sawyer is rolling her eyes every time he says it

Looking at your avatar, while I love the guy with all my heart, you'd have to add him to that list. Geordies and subtitles make a beautiful couple.
