[Albion] Simon Jordans Team of The Season: BHAFC

[um bongo molongo]

Loved the dig at Souness

 

[Shooting Star]

Jordan is hands down my favourite pundit. I've read his autobiography too which was a really good read.

 

[The Optimist]

No, it seems to be sincere. He's been getting closer and closer in terms of loving us for a while. Its from the business point of view as much as anything else. He won't walk safely in Croydon now I bet!

I was reacting to the quote in text above, which isn’t actually what he said.

 

[Change at Barnham]

I've been trying to figure out who his voice reminds me of.

It's Chris Eubank.
Why use concise words when you can use really big ones?

 

[Weststander]

Him and Keown do not see eye to eye and listening to SJ shoot him down in flames most of the time is a joy to listen too.

Crikey they clashed today.

Jordan isn’t always correct eg you could tell that Keown was right …. Jordan had emphatically stated that Steve Cooper was a shit PL manager who should be sacked. Keown didn’t have the evidence to hand, so Jordan lied.

 

[Eeyore]

I didn’t know that was a thing. Is it like the Champions League, i.e. top 2 into the knockout stages, 3rd into competition below and 4th knocked out completely?

Indeed, once you're in Europe it's hard to get out. As ardent supporters of Brexit found out.

The downside is that that are a lot of games. I do think that BT will be rubbing their hands at all the new subscriptions in the Sussex area.

 

[Turkey]

 

[GT49er]

Or that we get relegated to that competition from the Europa League.

Does that happen?

 

[rigton70]

Shouldn't say it too loud but I really like the guy. Like his different POV, his distance from the sycophantic side of the punditry. Says a lot of sensible things.

This 100%

forgetting his palace links imo opinion he is a great pundit not that I listen to talk sport though

 

[Triggaaar]

Does that happen?

Yes. EL group of 4: 3rd place goes to Conference.

 

[DavidRyder]

I’ve always enjoyed listening to him, gives a good argument for his views, and I usually agree with what he says

 

[schmunk]

Is that a subtle dig that he thinks we’ll be thrashed by City and Villa? Otherwise we won’t be in the Europa Conference League

I'd have thought more likely just a slip/misunderstanding of our likely EL participation.

 

[Icy Gull]

I enjoy his input and it’s the only Talksport programme I listen to, I tend to agree with most of what he says. However, you are right he does seem to try and sneak in words or expressions that make it sound like he’s trying too hard sometimes

Reminds me of the Spitting Image Chris Eubank who would pause mid-sentence and flick through a thesaurus to find a long word.

 

[Motogull]

Foppy haired grandstanding tangoman.

 

[Jimmehh]

Doubtful, as BT are giving up the rights and 'becoming' TNT Sport from next season.

 

[Super Steve Earle]

It's Chris Eubank.

The words are only really big because he adds extra letters.

 

[Eeyore]

Same thing. It's just BT Sport and Eurosport UK under a different name. BT still have the rights along with Disney

 

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

Yes, it also takes in early eliminations from the Champions League into the second qualifying round.

UEFA Conference League - Wikipedia

It's like Piccadilly Circus in that there Europe

 

[Oh_aye]

Apparently getting banned from all future Palace games and Smellhurst Stadium ban (as an award).

I'll let him off for (hopefully) getting the competition wrong.
