Jason on a Murdoch owned media outlet whatever next


He’s Blue Labour, more likely to be on Talksport than the Alexi Sayle Podcast or Novara Media.

For anyone who thinks that TalkSport is ridiculous dross, you should listen to a podcast called Sports Horn, which is basically a full parody of the station. It hits every nail directly on the head, and is very funny.


Radio 4 did a comedy take on sportstalk a few years ago... look away now?  I remember laughing my head off at that I'll give sports horn a go

Quoted from Poojah


May be an unpopular opinion but I quite like Simon Jordan as a pundit. Read his book about a decade ago - one of the best football autobiographies I’ve read.


He has a certain knowledge, by no means misinformed or uneducated but I think there's certain aspects of the game you can only get from playing or coaching that seems to lead him into conflict with ex players he's been talking with, he tends to come across thinking his opinion is gospel at times. Neither like or dislike him, but not an opinion I tune into if I want a good analysis.

You mean he hates football players/managers/agents who lost him 50 million quid or whatever it was

The interview didn't really do JS or the subject justice. For a better overview of what he was being interviewed about, see his latest Guardian article: https://www.theguardian.com/fo.....sing-an-ai-assistant.

Genuinely interesting.

I did like the idea of us developing our own Alan Buckley AI - ChatAB.

Quoted from diehardmariner
Jordan is odious, but I agree his book is a decent read and he at least offers, perhaps should say offered, an alternative view.

Like many he lost his way when he started to become a parody of himself.

TalkSport is an absolute toilet though.  Few years back I had an old car where anything electrical would fail.  The radio would only tune into two stations: TalkSport and Christian Rock.

It didn't take me long to re-discover that P.O.D had some worryingly catchy songs.

Talk Sport ....?

Should be re-names to Talk Premier League as that pretty much dominates most of their schedule.

So after reading the article ...I can't help but think back to our previous owner and only now realising how far ahead of the game he was ....when he proudly declared checking if managers were any good with computers as part of the recruitment process. JF a true visionary.  😄
