The fiery debate on the booing of the national kicked off on the mid-morning radio show he hosts.

Simon Jordan reckons a rhetoric fuelled by former Scotland first ministers Nicola Sturgeon and Alex Salmond is partly behind the booing at Hampden on Tuesday night.

A fiery debate ensued between talkSPORT host Jim White, former Crystal Palace owner Jordan and ex-Liverpool midfielder Danny Murphy over the flashpoint. Jordan reckons it's partly down to the former SNP leaders. He said: "We are talking now about the reflection of national symbols and we are talking about a culture in Scotland right now that Nicola Sturgeon and Salmond have fuelled.

"I think football fans or a certain segment of football fans are rather imbecilic. I don't think it adds anything to the occasion. I also think some of the narratives that underpin all this are ill-informed. I am not going to tell the Liverpool fans how to view their world and the challenges they had in the 80s, but I don't think the Royal Family have anything to do with the Conservative government's decisions in Liverpool in the mid-80s.
