Lets B Avenue Posted 7 August, 2011 Share Posted 7 August, 2011 Just watching a recording of the game and at 55.40, just after our 3rd goal, Sky show some suit in the directors box and referred to him as Nicola Cortese and also put his name up in a caption. It wasn't him and we noticed at the game the front row seemed a bit empty. anyone else confirm this and who was it? Also, MLT wasn't wearing a tie in the pre-match bit, but then he is a scruffy get. However, by half-time a shocking green one had found its way round his neck. Perhaps Sky got complaints? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Badger Posted 7 August, 2011 Share Posted 7 August, 2011 Cortese was stood up with his arms folded at some point they showed on Sky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kpturner Posted 7 August, 2011 Share Posted 7 August, 2011 He explained the tie. It was for a Guernsey team who had played their first game in some league or another and won 5-0. They also showed the real Cortese (after the bit you are referring to) standing in some doorway/exist watchng the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adrian lord Posted 7 August, 2011 Share Posted 7 August, 2011 They also showed the real Cortese (after the bit you are referring to) standing in some doorway/exist watchng the game. He looked brooding and menacing, no wonder OXO didn't leave - he was too scared! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for the tie, I still think he was told by Sky producer or someone higher to smarten up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lets B Avenue Posted 7 August, 2011 Author Share Posted 7 August, 2011 No, he explained on air what that was about. (as other poster above has already mentioned) Well he wasnt going to admit to being told off, was he? I've known MLT for years. He dosent wear ties. Why wasnt it on at the beginning? Just Mike. I thought you would be lying low after you disgraced yourself last week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, by half-time a shocking green one had found its way round his neck. Perhaps Sky got complaints? Also The Sky studio seemed to be Kingsland side and I have not seen that before. Does anyone know was this possibly due to the corporate boxes being sold out as I thought they usually have one of them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S-Clarke Posted 7 August, 2011 Share Posted 7 August, 2011 Apparently though Cortese loves the spot-light, loves the attention....yet Sky don't even really know what he looks like, took them 2 attempts to find him! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
