Is coming to Swindon!!! Don't know if it has been posted but it would appear that DD is one of the torch bearers when the torch comes to Swindon tomorrow. Leading it off from Wharf Green apparently. Would that be the Samsung link-up?

No idea but Will.I.Am ran with the torch through Taunton so wouldn't necessarily read too much into it...

Yes the Samsung link up was mentioned on the radio.
If we bundle him into a car and threaten him with Chinese burns he could be a town player by tomorrow.

The reason Will I Am done it was through Coke, he tweeted while he was running with it. |

Which is the thing that annoyed me most. Kind of undermines the event if you're on the fucking phone at the same time. I'm surprised Drogba was allowed in, considering he advertises Pepsi. |

It was, I think it was the game at home to Barnet. Not 100% though. |

After watching the local news it suprised me how many people were in the towns and villages to see the passing of the flame. High profiles like Drogba in Swindon Is sure to get a few more people coming into town. Didn't think there was that much interest in the olympics but maybe I'm wrong.

I've taken half a day off to take my lad tomorrow. He seems to be into it and I am quite looking forward to the games themselves, but not really the relay or the opening ceremony*.
Doubt we'll go into town, it'll be rammed. So no Drogba for us!
* unless its piss-takingly crap, that would be good.

I didn't have an opinion either way on Drogba, until I saw him on Graham Norton and they talked about the major role he played in stopping the civil war in Ivory Coast. Massive fan now, always good to see a footballer using their fame for good rather than getting pissed up and shagging everything with a pulse.
