I feel like Jim white talks as if he thinks he’s representing the common man, but doesn’t quite get there. Then just comes across as really ignorant and agenda driven. Very tabloid? Idk

Simon can be divisive sometimes but my lord that man knows footballing economics. Always a very interesting listen - i love how he refers to mino raiola cos honestly that guy is a slob and snake rolled into one

Jim just isn’t on Simon’s intelligence level 🤦🏽‍♂️

Simon speaking facts ad usual

Jim has no real opinion. He says whats hes payed to say. Its not a debate between Simon and Jim, its a debate between Simon and the person in Jim's ear telling him what to say

It’s like speaking to a brick wall with Jim White what an annoying conversation that was to listen to. Jordan stating facts and why the fees had to be paid and it just goes in one ear and out the other

Simon Jordan has this bang on really. Very good understanding of what’s going on. Regulate them!

'The whole thing is a an egregious abuse on finances', spot on Simon. He may be a polarising person but he gives you a different insight into football economics than anyone else. Also, bang on about regulating agents!

Truly EVERYthing in football is regulated, except agents?!?! Madness!!

Can you imagine what this would have sounded like if Jordan wasn't there to correct white. Jim white has no idea how clubs are run.

Simon jordon the best thing on talk sport since Mike parry brilliant says it has it is

If they would just ditch Jim White, I'd be back listening most days.

I love TalkSport. I really enjoy listening to Simon Jordan who knows a lot about the game. Whilst I am sure Jim is a nice chap I find his approach to be very irritating and provocative. Personally I would love Simon to just have his own show. If it wasn’t for Simon between 10.00 and 13.00 I would turn it off and wait for the next show. Sorry, but that’s how it is for me.

It’s clear these two don’t get on and normally this sort of partnership wouldn’t work on radio, but somehow it just does. Jordan is a great listen in the mornings

Jim White, oh dear. Do you actually pretend have such a lack of intelligence.....or is this part of the show to tee up Simon's responses?? I really do hope so, for your sake. You can tell who the 'media' person is and the other that lives in the real world.

Leeds didn't claim furlough, the players ended up deferring their wages, so the non-playing ataff got paid and didn't get made redundant.

Simon Jordan should be in charge of football

Jim Whyte is embarrassing at times, bloody hell he can’t listen to common sense. Always just after a headline or click bait. Love listening to Simon Jordan

Always have been and will be a fan of simon just speaks truths on everything . And it's because he is wealthy enough already to not be scared of anyone trying to ahut him down . Well done sir

Used to think Simon Jordan was a bit of a narcissist but now i take it all back he’s actually one of the shining lights actually he ought to be running the FA

I think if the agents fees came out of the player's end it would make more sense.

And that's the problem. "We can keep talking about players wages but it becomes boring"

Thumbnail 🤣🤣

Simon is right here, these agents need to be put in their place and needs to happen soon

Omg. I never knew agents make that much! It's like price of buying a player. Imagine how much the agent got from big deals. Insane

These 2 are excellent

As soon as you have a go at the media Jim loses it lol Simon on another level and Jim hates it. Love when these 2 go at it. Great radio

Competition is watered down half of these 'big clubs' skys big 6 havent even won more titles than Sheffield Wednesday. End of the day Champions League should be what it says on the tin only the champions qualify only top spot that's it

Tbh if you're good at football do you really need an agent? Talent should speak for itself

Football is a multibillion industry, why shouldn't the talent get compensated correctly.People like Simon Jordan and Mike Ashley want salary caps so they can line their pockets even more.

Leeds players did take a pay cut Simon. So Leeds staff wouldn’t get furlough .

These two are brilliant 💥

Lets get it straight here. there will be no regulation of players wages or agent fees while football clubs are prepared to stab each other in the back and do deals behind each others backs.

How about the agents involved in government contracts? Intermediaries are involved through the economic world. We buy & sell. Its called business. The players/owners see value in an agent otherwise they wouldnt get in the door. These are business deals. Nothing more.

Jim White is thick! You can't mess with Simon when it comes to business!

Jim is just saying the opposite of simon to spark a debate

This was a master class 👏

1:35 paraphrase "I don't quite know how we got into the territory of it (agent fee) being 10% when that's not a given in any other walk of life" - Please google: celebriry agents percentage. Tell me what you see?

Jordan is spot on on this in fairness to him.

Why are the clubs paying agents at all? They are the players agents surely they should be taking a percentage of their clients wages

Fergie warned everyone about football agents but noone listened blame Chelsea

where’s the fiery debate?

if theres one thing Simon knows its accounting.

I agree with Simon

It was an absolute disgrace that the premier league didn't bail out the EFL. Too busy wanting a super league to rake in even more disgusting amounts of money.

Music and acting agents earn a far higher percentage from their clients then football agents. It is the clubs who are at fault.they the one's who paying agents to try and get the best players. Fees are based on the high wages they are prepared to pay their players.

“That slob” pahahah

Regulators!!!!!! Mount up!

Simon Jordan The Talking Dictionary.

Funny listening to this after the ESL fiasco.

Furlough is using tax money Simon, end of. Cap agents and players if you truly want to change the game.

Wasn`t Simon Jordan chairmen at Palace who refused to pay Tim Cahill`s agent , meaning he signed for Everton , Thanks Si , COYB

Simon Jordan, top lad, cracking shirts. Different gravy.

Haha I swear they ask Jim White to act moronic to make Simon look smarter

Simon giving off about mino always makes me laugh.

ITV investigation. Come on Jimbo

I wish Jim would shut up and let Simon speak. "That was a lie.."...."well no it's not because" "Why is it not?' LET HIM SPEAK AND YOU'LL FIND OUT!!!! Jesus.

Jim white is just not on Simons level!

Can’t stand Jim. Talk sport sold its soul when Jim and he’s sky sports views turned up. #getjimout😂😂

Don’t get this obsession with the Prem bailing out the lower league. Broken logic.

Agents today are bottom feeders. Thief whole business model revolves around convincing players to move so they can get their percentage. They need to be regulated.

Cr7 bought his agent an island, agents will gladly take flack as long as they make their money and their clients are happy lol riola can do one though

Simon is very clever, Jim is very thick, end of story, Jim White can't even think of a good question for Simon period

Disgraceful how these players didn't get a pay cut while normal people didn't have a choice. Oh but they kneel before every game so that makes them good.

For once I actually agree with Simon Jordan

Postman Pat

It's like man utd are in debt so don't pay tax but still pay themselves a dividend and I'm a utd fan it's a joke

Jim white is a bit clueless isn't he

I have cancelled Sky and turn off most days talk sport shame because I like Jordan, and Hawksby/Jacobs, but White just drives me nuts. He will campaign for anything sees himself as the saviour of the World, can't stand him.

Jim doesn't know what he's talking about. Have figures on a paper, but don't know what they mean

Why are we listening to these two who have never kicked a ball ????

Well said Simon because one day the football in this country will go with a bang the wages for football players in the premier league is absolutely ridiculous and something needs to be done right across the board including agents fees🤬 As for Newcastle yes they let the government pay the staff on furlough not necessarily to reduce the players wages more because it’s Mike Ashley and in many people’s opinion he should fail the owners and directors test especially in the last 6 years on what he is doing too our club. Yes he has done some decent things in the early days but now he is stripping the club of every single Penny the club is rotten from the top. Ashley out Bruce out. 🤬

Fifa don't want to regulate. The establishment wants to keep the wealth within the handful of privileged at the top. Why would they want the status quo to change and dilute their wealth.

Pathetic how agents get paid these days. Absolute joke, that sort of money could be better spent on grassroots football or could be given to lower league clubs to prevent them from going bust. Money is RUINING the game!

Do you feel comfortable having paid your hard earned money to watch multi millionaire football players play average football and the same type of football you watch in Junior or Reserve games. You have the power to boycott games and unsubscribe to any broadcaster that move our traditional 3pm kick-offs, to times that suit them in the pursuit of massive advertisements profits and even more shareholder bonds. It's our game, they are our clubs

I’ve always said football needs a haircut. Short back and sides I say

Simon is going to have to get a whiteboard, start drawing pics and diagrams and then see if it sinks into Jim’s head.........Jesus what a tool

He’s talking shite... any owner who can afford to pay an individual player 300k a week, is making a lot of money

Simon = top LAD proper clobber

Jim out!!!!!

Jim white is so annoying

Diversity on tv, get rid of jim.. and replace the host with a black or Asian person. I think alot of people are getting fed up of Jim whyte and the shows ratings so it aswell.. people only listen to the show now for Simon as he talks openly and honestly, the two words Jim knows nothing about and thats why people are hating him and can't relate to him talking on talksport or sky

This is the worst episode of Line of Duty I've ever seen

Jim really is a bit thick isn't he

Football is better than ever , clubs paying the agent fees isn't a big deal to me . We need more top player in the premier League .

I wish I was good at football lol

Must be frustrating for Simon , he spends his days trying to educate this buffoon , give it up Simon you are wasting your time mate .

Who cares? The Premier League has the best players because of the agents and without them maneuvering player sale pitches to all these big clubs, epl wouldnt be this phly.

jim white is thick

Jim I like you but this is embarrassing

Put Jim in the OAP home man bin this clown

The working class will soon desert football due to the extortionate wages the players are receiving. Football is dead folks, the greedy have won! Oh, and the tv rights will not be the same as they are now. Sky and BT subscriptions are falling like a stone.

Both a bunch of plonkers

Epitomises why I gave up on talk sport . Jim White has and most likely always will be a pandering twat . 2020 has literally destroyed any enjoyment I had in main stream media . The positive side is I got back to reading more and listening to podcasts which free you up to crack on with things . The saying ‘ignorance is bliss’ is still very true but sod that 😂✌️

Both are so arrogant and pompous I don't know how they are allowed their own show

Jim White; once again being a complete ignoramus

Jim shite is clueless 😏

Jim wins right at the end

Must we really hear advise from a FAILED CHAIRMAN 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
