saint si Posted 19 March, 2012 Posted 19 March, 2012 According to this... http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/shared/bsp/hi/pdfs/19_03_12_day57_bournemouth_southampton.pdf The olympic torch is going to do a lap of SMS. (slow news day)
Badger Posted 19 March, 2012 Posted 19 March, 2012 Will they risk taking it through Skatesville ? Unless some f^cker nicks it down there it will probably be by caravan procession.

(slow news day) Very detailed - pitchside turn right, pitchside turn right......hope the torch carriers all know their left from right :-)

Saint for ever Posted 19 March, 2012 Posted 19 March, 2012 I'm running with it through Gosport. Wish me luck...

The Cat Posted 19 March, 2012 Posted 19 March, 2012 I'm running with it through Gosport. Wish me luck... Wearing a Saints shirt I hope!
Saint for ever Posted 19 March, 2012 Posted 19 March, 2012 Unfortunately I am on strict instructions not to wear anything branded in any way, only the uniform they give you
Whitey Grandad Posted 19 March, 2012 Posted 19 March, 2012 Can't they go to Fratton and torch the place? ...just a thought.
jawillwill Posted 19 March, 2012 Posted 19 March, 2012 http://www.saintsfc.co.uk/page/NewsDetail/0,,10280~2665381,00.html It'll take place during the ML memorial cup apparently according to the OS. Sure that's probably been mentioned somewhere on here already, but thought it'd be nice to say it again on this thread. Should be enough of an incentive to attract Barcelona and Boca Juniors to play us this season!

It should also ensure a sell-out for the tournament I'd have thought (I assume it'll be another three team tournament like last year?). What were the attendance figures last season?

What were the attendance figures last season? attendance last year was tiny, hardly anyone there to see the one and only appearance of the flag. and the chance to see the olympic torch will not sell any more tickets as it is coming through the streets of southampton anyway for those who want to see it.
JRM Posted 19 March, 2012 Posted 19 March, 2012 July 14th is very early for a pre-season tournament, the season is starting later than usual on 18th August so this is 5 weeks before, the players would have only just come back for pre-season training.

Perhaps we will be acting as warm up hosts for a couple of the Olympic teams.....Tean GB for example ?
