Peter Marks: Press officer
Peter Marks is the press officer for a top football club. If a television or newspaper journalist
wants to know something about the club, Peter gives them the information.
"At the age of ten, I wanted to play football for England. But I studied science at university,
and then got a job on a daily newspaper, writing about business and sport.
I've worked for this club for 8 years. When I started, only one other football club had press
officer - now almost every club has one.
The job has changed a lot. At the beginning, I just gave information to a few local and
national newspapers. Today my phone never stops ringing. Magazines, TV companies and radio
stations from all over the world want interviews with our players and manager.
Often journalists or photographers ask to meet a player here. That's why my office is next to
the club changing room - it's easy for me to find players when we've finished practicing.
Newspapers sometimes say things about football clubs that are wrong, so I teach all players how to
answer difficult questions. Then I'm happy to let them speak to journalists without me"
