Simon Jordan rips into Celtic and Rangers over away fan lockout as he wants SANCTIONS for 'small-minded' behaviour

Simon Jordan has let rip over the Celtic and Rangers away fan lockout accusing the rivals of being 'small-minded' - and would like to see them SANCTIONED if it continues.

The loudmouth pundit - who is never shy on offering his opinion and views on the Scottish game - discussed the latest twist in the saga from the derby rivals live on talkSPORT with Jim White.
