Jan Posted February 9, 2008 Share Posted February 9, 2008 And the vast difference between this and playing a game on the Saturday in Florida is..............? Oh I know- I can't go because they announced it too late. If I'd known about this from the start of the season, I'd have been there (Although I hate Florida it's got to be better weather than here) Clubs do this all the time on longer breaks.

Wolves_Rover Posted February 9, 2008 Share Posted February 9, 2008 I'd prefer that we were still in the cup than continent hopping. Can't see folks lining up around the block to watch the sessions but I suppose Bradley will have his admirers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
philipl Posted February 9, 2008 Share Posted February 9, 2008 Might be a good idea to change the name of the thread to Florida trip. Orlando Sentinel asks for fans' questions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

philipl Posted February 10, 2008 Share Posted February 10, 2008 I hope the trip is being sponsored. Of course it is oneway or another. If we were relying oin gate money, the training camp would be in Burnley. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rog of the rovers Posted February 16, 2008 Share Posted February 16, 2008 Anyone got any photos of the training sessions? Been to the Wide World of Sports complex myself, to see the Orlando Rays, who now play in Montgomery as the Montgomery Biscuits! I hope someone can get a pick of Tugay with Mickey Mouse, that would be legendary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dew22 Posted February 17, 2008 Share Posted February 17, 2008 Does anyone know if Quinton went to Florida? I went on Friday. Q was there. Real relaxed environment. Got to chat with a bunch of the lads. Got some pics and a bad sunburn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dew22 Posted February 18, 2008 Share Posted February 18, 2008 Dew was there alot of interest in the team or not? You going to post some pics?! Here is a link to a few pics I snapped: Disney photos To be honest, there was very little interest. The session was not really advertised, and Orlando is a bit out of the way for most folks. There were several Disney and Ginn (U.S. real estate developers who are currently infiltrating Europe) reps there, and that was about it--Ginn sponsored the trip, btw. Most folks who stopped by were autograph seekers hounding the Atlanta Braves, who were training on a field nearby. Many did not know the Rovers, but were familiar with the EPL (there were Chelsea ads and pics all over the place). Several recognized Brad after I clued them in on who he was. Weather was perfect and the session was intense . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
