The club announced that they are partnering with Mitel to help then in their communication technology.
They are spinning this as of being particularly relevant to the club’s communication with fans:
“… Enhance the club’s fan experience by implementing innovative cloud-based communication and collaboration solutions, which will enable supporters to quickly and securely connect with the club from anywhere, and on any device, through voice calls and online. ”
Not sure how the club is going to be connecting with fans via voice calls. Does that mean they will have a phone number supporters can call? Because they alreasy have one of those and have done for decades!
