in General Charlton
I know it's been mentioned on another thread but thought it deserves its own.

My stepdaughter rang earlier totally overexcited about this as the message was left at her and her mums house. What I find interesting is that they have never bought tickets from that address as I always get them but they do live in the SE7 postcode. So does that mean everyone in that postcode got a call who's not ex directory or a season ticket holder.

Anyway it worked well in that household. Well done.

    We got a call and we're ex-directory. SCP obviously has magic powers!

    It's a recorded message isn't it? Just found out I missed a call from 0871...1905 this evening.

    No, he called me personally.

    Really? That is going to be a special moment. Praying the other half is out when/if he call's back

    No, not really. Just the recorded message. I almost hang up because there was a long silent delay before it started. Imagine hanging up on our leader?

    Maybe i'll call Chris tomorrow anyway just to be sure.

    Didn't we try similar marketing before, (think it was Les Reed during his brief stint?) but in person, rather than recorded.

    He rang me too - wouldn't let me get a word in edgeways, kept rabitting on about buying tickets for a game next week, then hung up.
    Rude!

    I got a call from him last night as well. Got very excited when I picked up the phone but Chris Solly's fit and raring to go so I won't be making my debut at Watford on Saturday.

    It was with Pardew. Despite it being a pre-recorded call, he still tried chatting my wife up halfway through the call....

    When he rang me he was asking about Double Glazing, are we that hard up ?

    I thought Les Reed rang everyone before the night of the long knives the Wycombe cup game. Bet he wished he hadn't bothered as most people who turned up were slagging him off.
