Hello, is Sven there? I’d like to make a transfer offer

By: Bob | August 16th, 2007

Some time in the next 48 hours I will own my first mobile phone. I look forward to experiencing life in the 1990s! I’ve been reluctant to get one because they frankly annoy the hell out of me, but the decision has been made and now I can only hope to be as lucky as a 17-year-old teenager in the UK.

Christina Tambaros acquired her cell phone three months ago and since then she has come to discover that the number used to belong to Sven Goran Eriksson. As The Sun so eloquently reports:

She insisted there were NO calls from women chasing the randy coach.

But she did get a text offering Inter Milan’s Brazilian midfielder Aparecido Rodrigues Cesar on a free transfer.

Christina has also had calls from players’ union boss Gordon Taylor and texts from Fulham’s assistant manager Les Reed — who DID wish Sven luck.

I have been on the phone with my wireless service provider and call assure you that I am doing everything possible to acquire a number where I WILL receive calls from women chasing after a randy coach or player. Surely there must be a WAGs and friends plan out there, right?

Hi i am christina and i have sven's old number which i still receive calls for sven on, a lot tend to be from people from different countries and recently had a call from a female but speaking a different language and therefore couldnt tell what she wanted.

Having this number was fun at first. but now receiving calls and texts at 3 in the morning from reporters and managers isn't that amusing anymore. was going to sell it seen as i still get calls.

anyway just thought i would comment

Thanks

Christina

I wish i got texts for Brazilian midfielders. I don't know what i'd do with them if i bought them. Sell them to Real Madrid i guess.
