Arseweb regulars will have noticed the O2 ads we've been running
recently. O2, of course, are the mobile network providers who this
summer showed the height of good taste by sponsoring our beloved team.
But their association with the club goes much further than simply having
their logo on the shirt.
O2 are running a range of Arsenal text message services in association
with the club, and we recommend that anyone wanting Arsenal news sent to
their mobile check out the services available at
http://www.arsenal.com/mobile/. The services are now available to users of all mobile networks.
First, there's Arsenal Match text.
You can get all the latest match day news as it happens, direct to your
mobile. Previews, team line-ups and all the goals. It doesn't matter
where you are, 02 can bring the match to you. Just text 'ALERT MATCH ON'
to 83202 to kick off.
They can also send you up-to-the-minute news from Highbury, including
transfers, injury updates and fixtures. Text 'ALERT NEWS ON' to 83202
for all the latest, including goal alerts and half and full time
reports.
For more information about 02's range of services, click on the link
above (or on the ads above or the button to the right). O2's terms and charges apply, and are detailed on their pages.
We have recently had to stop supplying the ArseText SMS news service, unfortunately we never had enough subscribers to make
it economic for us, and at the end of the day it was one of the
things detracting from our ability to keep the website side of things running as smoothly as it used to.
We regret having to make this decision, but the O2 services should more than make up for it.
Please do let us know how you get on with it. We'll forward any
comments to the people at O2.
