NE5 Posted January 6, 2008 Share Posted January 6, 2008 I might ring Alan Oliver myself and see if he'll give me Mort's number. I could text him and see if there are any transfers on the cards. Well, you might get lucky. Its quite amazing that you think he wouldn't have a number to contact him Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NE5 Posted January 6, 2008 Share Posted January 6, 2008 If he has Morts number, why does he just nick non stories off the official website? are you on drugs ? Why do you think they would put a story like this on the official website Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted January 6, 2008 Share Posted January 6, 2008 I might ring Alan Oliver myself and see if he'll give me Mort's number. I could text him and see if there are any transfers on the cards. Well, you might get lucky. Its quite amazing that you think he wouldn't have a number to contact him A number to contact him, yes. It's probably the press office number, which is published on the website. His personal number? Doubt it. In any case: Contacts. Hmm, say I'm a colleague of a top agency, and our client is a world-renowned manager; someone that would 'blow Mort's socks off'. How do I get in touch with Mort? I know, I'll ring a journalist at a local newspaper. That will be much more discreet than sending a letter to the club (address published on the internet), or ringing the club (number published on the internet).

Dave Posted January 6, 2008 Share Posted January 6, 2008 A) Ring local journo, hope they have the chairmans number. If they don't, keep calling all the reporters in the area until you find one who does. B) Contact the club through official channels. Frankly any manager who picks "A" as a method of reaching Mort wants shot. Repeatedly. What 'official channels' are these? The Yellow Pages? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liam Liam Liam O Posted January 6, 2008 Share Posted January 6, 2008 If any manager wanted to get in touch with the clubs chairman, who better than the leading journo of the local rag ? Sorry, but... mackems.gif how do you think football works Dave ? Do you think he looks in the phone book ? No one looks in the phone book old man http://www.softasset.co.uk/images/centennial/118-118.gif oh dear. Such abuse from a little lad. Never mind. One day you will learn. BTW, I'm the same age as Allardyce, Roeder, and younger than Kevin Keegan, who certainly knew what he was on about. mackems.gif By the way, they aren't the same age so thats an impressive trick.

NE5 Posted January 6, 2008 Share Posted January 6, 2008 don't think this will be owt made up tbh. If any manager wanted to get in touch with the clubs chairman, who better than the leading journo of the local rag ? Unbelievable that people don't understand this and simply make negative comments in tune with current hype etc etc......hardly unexpected though. Whether this information was meant to be made public is another matter entirely !!!! http://www.camdenny.com/oneidalake/fishing.jpg the real sad thing, is that you think you are right. No, the real sad thing is that I thought to myself as I was posting it, "what if he actually does believe that, how sad would that be". So you were close I suppose I suppose you are right, those yellow pages are great aren't they mackems.gif What??!! Genuine Question : Are you pissed? No. I was thinking that you and others were tbh. Are you seriously trying to say that the major journo of the biggest newspaper in the city doesn't know how to contact the chairman of the football club ? You're fuckin barmy mate. Sorry like, but that is ridiculous. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

merlin Posted January 6, 2008 Share Posted January 6, 2008 I have another theory, AO is touting big names wanting the job so when we don't appoint said big names, fans get pissed off with the board and MA who have backed Big Sam in refusing the c*** access to him and certain players. As ever AO has an agenda. The man's a prick. Oliver could get sacked over this if it's a lie and Mort goes to the editor with it. Yes, unless there is any substance in it, he could really have cooked his goose this time ; many of his claims have been somewhat 'wide of the mark'....
