West Ham United boss Sam Allardyce expects to be blanked by Manchester United boss Louis van Gaal today.
He was disappointed when he wasn't offered the chance of a glass and a chat with his Manchester United counterpart when the pair faced each other in September.
Allardyce said: "My office door is always open but the sad thing is that lots of managers don't even bother any more - and it's not just the foreign managers.
"It's another tradition gone out of the window. I can understand it because there's so much media we have to do after a game.
"But it's a chance to talk, isn't it? It's not very long these days, five maybe 10 minutes, but it is a chance to chat that you don't often get.
"Maybe one day when Van Gaal settles in, he will come along - but it is a shame that it is slipping away from the game."
