Motty kitted out with soccer 'dreamcoat'

Football commentator John Motson has been kitted out with a hi-tech "dreamcoat" worth more than £3,000.

Created by The Link mobile phone store as a replacement for his trademark sheepskin coat, it is fitted with four cutting edge mobile phones.

The coat's wearer can send emails and texts, make calls, surf the internet, use SatNav and listen to music on an MP3 player.

Motson, famous for his meticulous research and attention to detail in his commentating, said: "Jose Mourinho gets a lot of attention for his overcoat and many people think that my sheepskin is very much from the old school of the game.

"Well, now it's been brought right up to date and, who knows, we might see one of these on the touchline at Stamford Bridge before the end of the season."

The "Technical Dreamcoat" was created by mobile phone store The Link.
