Simon Jordan, a Mail Sport columnist, criticizes the use of sport, specifically football, to advance various causes and agendas. He argues that sport should be an escape from the problems of society, not a platform for activism. He also criticizes the Premier League's virtue-signaling and hypocrisy, particularly their adoption of American-style kneeling before games.

Additionally, he discusses the controversy surrounding the OneLove armband at the World Cup and the recent national anthem incident. Finally, he expresses his support for the Football League playoffs and argues that they add excitement and interest to the season.
