Great article and so nice to see the guys getting involved in the community especially with those unfortunate kids. The spirit in the camp looks fantastic and AP is just so flippin' positive, no wonder we've got that winning mentality back. Just another little example of what a fantastic feeling you get being a part of Saints now.

Even though this might just be another contractual/social obligation for the players this probably means the world to those kids. Some of them have very little joy in their life and a visit like this will give them something positive to concentrate on for weeks before and after. Good on SFC for setting it up.

The club have always been pretty good at this sort of thing. Many years ago a mate's mum was very poorly in Southampton General. She was an avid Saints fan so he wrote to the club to see if they might send her a card.

 

Much to her delight, one morning in walks Danny Wallace with a card and a big bunch of flowers. Made her day.

Great story

 

Your right, saints have always been good like that. a few years ago (possibly the promotion season but im not sure) my Mum wrote to both Pompey and Saints to ask for a prize for a charity raffle she was doing in aid of beast cancer research. Within a few days we recieved a signed home and away shirt with a note offering best wishes from saints, and yet to this day we have not heard a word from our fishy friends!
