Former Crystal Palace Chairman Simon Jordan has never been one to shy away from controversy.

The larger-than-life businessman has been out of the game since leaving Palace in 2010.

Jordan was in charge at Palace for ten years, a spell which ended in them entering administration, but he's often in the media these days discussing football.

Once upon a time he even had trials with Chelsea and could have made a player himself.

He's taken the chance to offer his opinions on the current situation at Wolves and as expected, he's pulled no punches.

"Wolves have done nothing wrong, clearly there is an association with Jorge Mendes and the owners and there is a benefit in kind opportunity," he told Alan Brazil's talkSPORT show.

"They are going to lose £25m this year which means if they didn't get promoted and lost £20m again next year that they would potentially be in trouble with the Financial Fair Play, but right now they are doing nothing wrong."

He went on to deliver a simple message to clubs who are critical of Wolves route to success.

"There is no morale issue. There is no logistical issue. There is no legal issue. There are sour grapes from clubs in the Championship because Wolves have a relationship with a super-agent. If other clubs want a super agent - get one!"

Jordan made news headlines in 2008 when he won a court battle with former Eagles manager Iain Dowie, whom he claimed had misled him when departing Selhurst Park. More recently he was robbed of a £100,000 watch in broad daylight on a London street.

The Verdict

Jordan might not be a likeable character for many, but I've come to hold some respect for his forthright views because in the main, they're usually agreeable. This is another one of those instances.

With the mountains of Premier League cash and club's up and down the land beating the FFP rules in any way they can, Wolves really are not the club the FA should be worrying about. There's a strong element of jealousy amongst their rivals and it really should be brought to an end.
