With the introduction of a bond scheme in 1991, which required match goers to pay hundreds of pounds in return for a guaranteed seat at Upton Park, when fans protested on the pitch and refused to move, Storrie invited them up to the boardroom to discuss the issue.
On the recommendation of manager Harry Redknapp — his former West Ham United colleague — he initially took up a role at Portsmouth on a job share basis in early 2002, helping to review the club's infrastructure and organisation.
