It is actually a stupid rule. Transparency would be much better. Only the most stupid clubs recruit managers or players without sounding them out (via their agents) first.
You’re right.He had defended city, usually on Twitter. To the point of sounding stupid with his bias, slowly changing that when he’s on to the point of nearly having a pop at us. Don’t like him full stop, great goals against the rags though.
in regards to lukaku, he must be up there with one of the top fees paid for surely?
simon jorden calling us a grotty mob ?
bang out of order and a complaint should be issued by the club

I've listened today, he's absolutely hammered us, called us a Saudi Arabia team, then run by Saudi's, kept insinuating we are not playing by the rules, then picking Ben White for his fantasy league at £3m, shouty man asked him what about Dias at £4.5m, he said the same Diss that got run ragged in the CL final, fuck all about POTY. He's a ****.It’s a shame with him because if I ever hear him he talks well, not afraid to go against the grain or public opinion. Some of his gripes with city might be justified but yesterday proved he can’t talk about city impartially as the hatred he has will always override it. There’s always a snipe or a name calling which shows someone unable to discuss something without emotion getting in the way.
"Our Jackie" was in top form on the Cundy / Groves show just before 11pm Monday.
A posh speaking rag called Spencer called in and said Pep was a good coach but without the cheque book would be nothing....
Jackie called in and they were put head to head and she wiped the floor with him, going on about the rags spending from 2000 onwards and what is the difference between Pep and Fergie and lately Ole doing it.
Poor old Spencer was speechless at the end of it.
Well played Jackie
Shame you’re not still there to carry on the good work.I worked at talksport for a while and regularly had to speak to Jackie. Would always make a point of getting her on when the hosts/callers were going on about City in a negative manner. Top blue.

Isn’t the breakfast show producer a City fan, or am I imagining that?
Nice oneYeah, he is, i've worked with him quite a bit and we've often had a few debates with others there about certain points with City and how they're portrayed.
With Jordan it's simple. He doesn't like the ethnicity of our owner. He would never call any other owners a "grotty mob." He wouldn't use that language about a white American owner. He has had years of repeating the "Arab oil money" mantra. He knows exactly what he is doing. His underlying narrative is: "You just can't trust those Arabs can you." He pushes it just far enough to keep his job while at the same time pandering to the more overt racists on social media. Can you imagine the sort of conversations he has about our club behind closed doors.It’s a shame with him because if I ever hear him he talks well, not afraid to go against the grain or public opinion.

Indeed, indeed and thrice indeed. I can see in my mind's eye my old Aunty Elsie giving her withering assessment of the likes of Jordan.. 'That g*bsh*te?! Don't make me laugh..'With Jordan it's simple. He doesn't like the ethnicity of our owner. He would never call any other owners a "grotty mob."

Jordan is an odious piece of work. He is building a career in the media on the back of pandering to the lowest common denominator. Not everyone is stupid enough to swallow it.

Brilliant!Jordan… a man with nothing to say and a large vocabulary with which to say it.
It probably kills him inside that we don't respond. Responding gives the man credence and validation.The puzzling thing is that City never seem to respond, or if they do we don’t get to hear about it. Just once I’d like to see the club come out all guns blazing and put these sad wankers in their places.
My late father-in-law would offer that Jordan suffers from 'sesquipedalian loquaciousness'.. but I think your better observation gets it 'in one'!Jordan… a man with nothing to say and a large vocabulary with which to say it.
