Arsenal legend Wright in nasty twitter clash with ex-Crystal Palace owner Jordan

Arsenal legend Ian Wright has clashed with former Crystal Palace owner Simon Jordan over Arsene Wenger's future.

Wright spent Thursday evening with his old manager and revealed details of their conversation on BBC 5 live.

Jordan tweeted: “There that should thrill all the Wenger out campaign, good job @IanWright Kept that private convo to himself or there could be a media feast [sic]"

To which Wright responded: “What the f*** you talking about keeping that private conversation to himself! We were in a room full of people tango man!"

One user replied: “Can't call someone tango man. That's racist @IanWright"

Wright then suggested: “What about 'orange ****?"

Business mogul Jordan hit back, branding the former England striker “Mr Magoo," “gormless," and “town crier".
