Simon Jordan CLAIMS Premier League Clubs DON'T CARE What Happens To EFL Clubs 😱🔥 

Arguing with Jim white is like arguing with a 5 year old child

lol did Simon just say 'I've always had a problem with people who call themselves Steve instead of Steven, etc' while on the air with Jim White and Danny Murphy 😂

As a fan of Ipswich, we have been in the EFL for years, and are close to getting up to the premiership. However if we do make it I do feel the journey will have been a lot more enjoyable than the destination.

Simon is a pure wizard man. Smartest person on air!

It's insane that clubs like Palace and Forest who regularly flirt with relegation to be opposed to the Football League getting a share of Premier League revenue.

They should do. Look how many “Premier League” clubs end up in the EFL, even after sustained Premier League periods. Blackburn, Stoke, Middlesbrough, Sunderland, Swansea, Leeds, Leicester, Southampton… the list goes on.

8:59 - 9:20 Everyone is like Danny listening in on this subject

Really wish Jim would stop talking over Simon when he's making comments about things Jim really knows nothing about.

Ok then going by Simon's logic, why do the 17 premier League teams continue to pay parachute payments to the 3 teams that get relegated, because once they get relegated they are part of the EFL, not the premier League. And according to Simon should not have help teams in lower leagues. And for that reason I'd love to see Palace get relegated and their income hit the floor.

Premier league teams don't care about EFL but they do when they expect loan fees for young talent

as a fan of an EFL club I don’t expect handouts from the so called top league. Final Position in Leagues price money should be improved

I noticed the majority of teams mentioned are owned by Americans. As an American I find this to be no coincidence.

"sorry si" 🤣🤣

Clubs that have not yo-yoed in and out of the Premier League do deserve to have financial help. Teams like Norwich, Sheffield United and a few others that keep coming up and then going down after less than a year should not be allowed to keep being paid parachute money by the clubs in the Premier League Its unfair to the other clubs lower down that are possibly paid a lot less .

Wait until Simon hears about taxes

Simons knowledge is unmatched. Who even knew this

why would PL care about the EFL. What do they get in return ... and don't say players. Not very many these days it's cheaper and still easier to go abroad.

Simon, the point you are missing is that the Premier League's success is having a detrimental impact on the EFL that it cannot escape from due to structure. The parachute payments are great... but if they end up going to the same 10 clubs, then the Championship's top ten is going to look very familiar year on year. The risk is that is harms the ability of small clubs to climb the ladder, which is essential to both the EFL and PL's success in my opinion.

Totally agree, however the EFL don't care about the PL or the future of English football either. That's the real issue, we have 3 separate organisations all involved in the welfare of English football, the FA, the PL and the EFL and the reality is all three are all about self interest.

Simon is absolutely SPOT ON!!

‘Sorry Si’ killed me 😂😂

This is weird considering everyone’s crying about the super league.

Sir Lord Simon Jordan OBE we salute you! ✊️ Jordanites UNITE ✊️

Great clip 😂😂😂😂😂😂

Wonder if they told the championship clubs that they had to pay the top 3 non league divisions money in the same way the attitude would be the same.

Some of those clubs pushing back against it are the same ones who voted for a super league!!! What a surprise!!!!

4:49 Sorry Si, brilliant from Jeff

Simon is so wise!!!

At this point I'm starting think again about this "Super League" idea. Perhaps it is a good idea if the "big clubs" cleared off and played with themselves - as it were, and left the rest of us who enjoy real world, largely ENGLISH football , thrive without them.

Does the efl give anything to the leauge below them 🤔

I could listen to Simon all day long.

Arsenal, spurs Tottenham, Man U (not in the list mentioned) Man City (to a point) liverpool, Newcastle (to a point) have all spent huge sums of money over the last 25 years to create the infrastructure for their business to thrive. In that same period sunderland frittered away riches and Charlton also were in the premier league and failed to prepare for the future. Why should teams who have spent decades building something (at their own expense) hand money to Charlton to allow Charlton to have a bigger budget and completely remove the incentive for the CEO to do his job and grow his business. Arsenal sold two players to finance the building of a training ground. The compromised sporting success to finance a stadium. Spurs were in the Stone Age in footballing terms twenty years ago and look at them now with space age infrastructure. The EFL didn’t step in and offer to help spurs modernise because it was unfair that they kept finishing in the bottom half. Maybe Charlie Methven should just remember we watched his performance at Sunderland on Netflix and Arsenal spurs, Man U (to a point) Newcastle Man City and Liverpool do not tend to treat their employees like he does na their business continue to boom. Maybe he should lead by example and start handing some of his clubs elevated resources down to league two clubs so they can match his clubs wages. I don’t expect to read statements from Crewe, Sutton, Cambridge, Forest Green, Accrington, Barrow and Tranmere thanking him for his contributions to their developments any time soon though.

Simon, are you referring to Reading being in league one at this club then somebody else i.e. Liverpool in the Premier League?

in years to come there may only be about 10 professional clubs in the whole of england

Some of the lower league teams have richer owners than premier league teams ipswich owners are worth over 10 billion why not just scrap ffp or change it

Is that Michael Jackson at 4:45 ?

Smon Jordan is best thing on Talk Sport

Div 1, Div 2, Div 3, Div 4 - quality times

So they should

I agree with Simon..why should a club like Liverpool give money to Sheff weds for nothing.. Im a weds fan and I can say that there’s not a chance chansiri would give any cash to other clubs..He can’t even sort his own shite out.

I'll give the EFL at least another 10 years if this doesn't get sorted, These clowns on Talk sport normalising these conversations is dangerous! These news outlets should be calling them out not giving excuses to keep the elite elite..makes me sick 🤬

It's a dog eat dog world

We should have a two tier Premiership system,both equal and 20 teams in each tier,each year we pick the teams that play in each tier and the winners in each tier plays in a Super final,maybe a new Cup or allow the league cup become the SuperCup.Also there should be a relegation system and make League one and two be the new Championship leagues with the Vanarama becoming League one! Sounds like a plan?? To many good teams now!! 😊

Simon when talking management and finance 10/10 When talking about football on the field 5/10

Quite right too. What the problem is that the sport vastly overrates itself and inflates the market. Not like other sports don’t do that but greed will always ruin everything but it’s not the clubs concern.

There is definite entitlement on EFL’s end.

So if pyramid in the structure is all a hoax then why oppose Super league

There will be no premier league without the lower leagues.

This is like telling me giving my neighbour some of my food is the right thing to do. Erm no I'll dictate what i choose to do, the premier league isnt responsible for the EFl

Interesting that Newcastle, City, the Oil clubs don’t mind pushing money back into our national leagues. Charitable chaps, with too much money to even care

good old Si-dog spitting facts as usual

So on this basis Tesco, Sainsbury etc need to give money to corner shops. It’s madness.

Charlie Methven is the bloke from Sunderland Til I Die he chose the second option to die. he's a total Chad but it's just a vibe

The world gets less empathetic day by day, ffs I thought greed was a SIN 🤔

Its up too clubs to look after there own house shouldnt expect hand outs for nothing

my question is what would those premier league clubs mindset be if they were relegated hmmmm funnily enough they would be then in favour.

1:49 forest and Bournemouth will regret that when they’re in the champ again in 18 months

Football reflects society

"If you don't do" what we want you to do (for political gain) "then we will put an independent regulator in." So, I surmise that this person will do exactly what the government wants. That doesn't sound like an "independent " process.

Commercial reality versus Eutopia of moral imparatives. Wages in EPL are humongous! Executives in EPL have hard tasks on their hand to be financially solvant. So, no one can blame the clubs in EPL sticking to " charity begins at home".

Why would any club want to disburse money to clubs in a lower league who desire to take their place? The whole concept does not make sense in a business sense or an ethical sense. Lower league clubs should stop mortgaging the house just to try for the PL. If you have good (cheaper) players you will get there. Also stop these stupid parachute payments when they get dumped from the PL.

Money before integrity. Typical pro attitude.

Socialising losses and privatising gains is the want of these clubs

Lmaoo I don’t call people Phil that are called Phillip and Steve instead of Steven then proceeds to call Daniel Murphy Danny 😂😂..I had a feeling so I just had to google his real name

Simon is so clever I wouldn't want to get in an argument with him he talks to fast

exactly the same as simon. my name is also simon and i don't mind the nickname si but i would never go around calling myself that.

One way you could get more money into the EFL is clubs like Chelsea and City should be made to pay properly for the talent they poach from smaller clubs

Another fair play rule to destroy the investment, it’s controlling business like a government it’s wrong

Simon objects to shortened names..... then calls him Danny 😂😂😂

Simon is 100% right. Scrap this fake competition.

Battle of wits and Jim was unarmed.

All very well and good the EFL coming to the premier league with their palms out. Should have a look at their own distribution methods first.

So they want teams in the Premier League teams to give out more money while punishing the same teams for being in losses? I wouldn't care about the EFL either.

Good it’s r money 💴

The premier league already give funding and rightly so. I don’t know if they pay enough but without the leagues below there is no premier league

Premier league is complete and utter poison at the moment. Don’t want Wanderers anywhere near it and that’s it

Why is Simon being so nice, jovial and agreeable today?.....edit It all ended after the first five.

Maybe true but going to a few cup games away at prem clubs makes me appreciate how much better the banter and away days are in the efl. I even miss the league 1 days with my team going to places like Burslem (port vale)

It is inevitable. When you open teams up to being run by/like a business. Then this will happen. If the clubs were run by fans then there might be some camaraderie left. Football has slowly become like any market / industry and no one has realised until now. And now it's too late.........

I'm a Charlton fan and agree with what Simon is saying 😅

the government can make it extremely hard for those clubs by imposing massive police costs on them and go after them in the tax system by not allowing any kind of tax write-offs

Si, haha, is 100% correct in this case. This is like saying you own your own house thats gone up in value, so you need to give me some of that value because i rent my house

Danny finally learning how football works .

EFL clubs were living beyond their means and EPL clubs are expected to pay for their operational incompetence. FFP is in place for a reason so those who fall foul of it cannot be surprised when they do. Premier league clubs barely spent in January because of FFP and so that should mean all clubs in the pyramid should do the same.

Why don’t they televise championship games to generate more revenue?

I've HAD IT with Jim White. I want to hear Jordan's views- he's knowledgeable, articulate, thoughtful and considers what he has to say judiciously. This White just constantly interrupts to shout out non-sequitors for the hell of it. He himself admitted in a previous segment how he doesn't even believe what he says but just wants to argue. What is the point of him?!!? Like having to have a child act as an interlocutor.

Oooo siii oooo friends , football friends

If clubs are made to do things that they see they do not HAVE TO then I can see a "Super League" happening......

Without the EFL there is no Pl.

Danny Murphy is the 🐐 of Talk Sport

Si, as ever, is bang on

Simon is excellent on this show 😂

SIMON JORDAN YOU WANNA JOIN MY PRO CLUBS TEAM

Simon Jordan is the ABSOULTE MOST Pragmatic Straightforward and Logical speaker on TalkSport. He displays Tribalism...OFTEN...and CLEAR. However, his Pragmatism and ability to speak SUBJECTIVELY on ANY MATTER far outweighs any obvious bias he may have. BRILLIANT viewing and Listening.

There shouldn't be a parachute payment

Why should private businesses pay other private businesses who they are in direct competition with? Does McDs hand out cash to all the chippies in town?

“…I met someone for lunch, at the savoy, had caviar… but it t doesn’t matter, not sure why I’m mentioning it”…. Jim 🤦‍♂️

Let’s hope those 10 clubs get relegated and see how they like it…..karma

Millwall made their first million pound signing in june 2022!!!!!. Imagine that, only just done that. Imagine that in this day and age in the craziness of sport economics. So I believe in this title.

SJ is great 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
