Simon Jordan disputes with Jim White over where Premier League rule changes leave Everton.Everton FC v Tottenham Hotspur - Premier League

Simon Jordan has been vocal in his condemnation of Everton and their conduct across the last decade or so.

Openly admonishing Farhad Moshiri with regularity, and rightly so, the Iranian billionaire has single-handedly plunged the Toffees into a financial peril from which they are unlikely to emerge anytime soon.

But with the Premier League now seeking to alter their rules which resulted in this season’s points deduction, frustration has boiled over. Jordan, however, backs the decision.

What Simon Jordan said about Everton

Speaking live on talkSPORT (12/03, 11 am), the former Crystal Palace chairman pulled no punches when chatting to a disgruntled Everton fan.

The supporter, who sought to put across a passionate point regarding the farcical conduct of the Premier League, riled up Jordan with his accusations surrounding the way in which the media have framed the Toffees struggles.

He even argued with Jim White, who initially claimed: ‘‘The current rules have hit Everton hard.’ Jordan replied with speed: ‘So they should,’ sparking his co-host to continue: ‘They’ve hit Forest hard, and may hit Manchester City hard. So, soon-to-be abolished rules are still hanging over the heads of Everton, Forest and City. Is that right? Soon to be abolished rules.’
