Tosser Jordan the failed businessman hammering our owner, a highly successful businessman. Ycmiu, Sheikh Mansour would hammer this **** in to the ground

Sm and khaldoon would not give him the time of day, they dont associate within the same circles, if they wanted to they could buy that radio station and shut it down but it is beneath them and thats what burns jordan so much in his warped little brain he deserves a seat at the table in reality he doesnt even exist in the same stratosphere so like alot of insecure tiny people they criticise what they will never ever be.

I've said it before but I'll say it again. Simon Jordan is the man who pronounced the word hyperbole live on air as 'hyper bowl'.

Not read the first article but surely The Grauniad is right to call out racism/facism? No other British paper is going to do it!

The Grauniad's hypocrisy is offf the scale when they rightly rail against racism in their news stories while their anti-City rhetoric is full of racism of which Ronay's "row of grinning beards" is just one example.

Opinion piece, but a change to see something positive (without derogatory snide claims) popping up on my home page.

Would be better if it didn't start with this bit of subconsciousness:

"While the looming legal battles between Manchester City bad the Premier League have dominated headlines recently"

Posh? He's the very worse kind - delusions and pretence of being something he's not.

C#nts like him are the reason I’ve never worked in the south. Too many Pretentious pricks like him

TalkSport has a simple offer - shock jocks give controversial opinions, often counter-argued by a presenting partner. The phone lines open and the offended ring in, from both sides, and create the show. The advertisers and producers are happy. The punters foam at the mouth.

Once you grasp that the aim of much of the media in the UK is to create as much anger as possible because it creates clicks and responses, you understand that it is, largely, to be ignored. Our situation is slightly different because the 'debate' has been so one-sided. Perhaps I feel that because my beliefs are tainted in sky-blue. Perhaps it is fact because our club will not respond and will not breach the confidentiality of the process. Perhaps it is because people like Simon Jordan know that attacking Manchester City secures many more listeners than defending them.

The problem is people fall for this shit, including some of our very own Blue Mooners.

Obviously they think that’s the “right kind of racism”. Hypocrisy abounds at the Graun….
