What i like about Martin allen is the fact he is a person that is interacting with the fans and always letting them know what is happening, a MM figure type, so i think thats one of the reasons they must have hit it off
N'Gotty and Nielsen sign

FFS! Who would you expect to be first with the news of the signings if not the club's own site? It would be a pretty appalling job of they weren't!! Hardly news though - the N'Gotty signing has been trumpeted all over the place for over a week now and the furst news of the Neilson signing came from Denmark.

This announcement doesn't actually refer to him as Sports Director.

In fact since before we asked for permission to speak to MA.
So is it really his signing - or did we speak to him before we were allowed to?

But it still doesn't actually say that - although the BBC site does.

he is the sporting director and not sports director, just missed out the 'ing' typing error

Thanks, Spanky. I now see that in a separate news item.

Not stricltly true. It was written into Bruno's contract that they had to offer him an extension as he'd played a certain amount for them already. He had the option of activating that, but knocked it back for the hope of first team footie elsewhere.
Like others have said, he got brum up this season, so he's obviously good enough.

The OS has NEVER been first with the news (sorry forgot Jason MacAteer, oh no......) so yes it has been pretty appalling job they have been doing for a long time. I do not know if it is MA that has changed this by insisting he 'posts' his own news (I would like to think it is) but thought I would comment on the refreshing change of hearing about signings first on our own site.
And whilst we are on our high horses, until they have signed it is all rumour, so yes it is news that he has actually signed!
i doubt the change has come from MA, maybe MM.

Correct...surely Rab C's on his chop.
Mixed feeling simply because I dont know enough about the pair. There's no doubting N'Gotty's predigree (sp) but didnt see much of him at Brum last season.

I hear what you say but I still contend that the OS should always be in the position to be first with the news - there's nothing special IMHO in the fact that they are now living up to that expectation.

It may be that the club's interface with the newly developed site has been the important factor that has made the difference.
