SOS acknowledgement at first game?

I am getting very excited now season is close as we all are, what do you guys think ofsome sort of intro of SOS to the crowd before first game. Was impressed Sunday, SOS directed me in car park, SOS directed me to correct ticket booth, SOS on the ticket entrance. Not only have they put in to save our club but are in there doing it themselves as well. Wouldn't it be nice to see them and have the chance to thank them before the first game we never thought we would have.
Thoughts ??

"So when you're near me, darling can't you hear me SOS?"

Sorry 'bout that, can't resist ABBA, particularly on a Karoake machine at 1 am in the morning.

Yes, yes, yes.

The SOS should be thanked at every opportunity

I told Mark Lewis when he took my money that he was a legend. He just laughed it off as it's humbling and he's simply doing basketball fans a favour, saving the club and showing loyalty. Keeping the legacy and basketball alive I should say.

Definitely good to see them all assisting in some sort of capacity. I noticed Marcus Ng helping out with the season tickets.

As much as this would be a nice gesture I think you will find that they understand that the players and the game is bigger than them. I think thanking them personally and supporting them any chance you get with their other business ventures would be gratitude enough.

Well said Brad. I don't think they are the type that will walk onto the court to take a round of applause.

I'm betting none of them are the type to sit at the end of the bench looking like fat idiots either.

Well done SOS. Support them by encouraging as many people as you can to come along..

I think you will find that the members of SOS will be introduced before the start of the first game. They will want people to come up to them and offer comments and suggestions so we can make the dome the best (and worst for the opposition) in the nation and to do that everyone needs to know who they are.

I very much doubt that the SOS guys will introduce themselves to the stadium at the start of the game - from the interactions I've had with them, they aren't that kind of group. I agree with Brad, they know the game is bigger than them.

I do think they will look to engage with the crowd whenever they can though - I do know that they all have their own seats in different parts of the stadium, and are all happy to have a chat with anyone.
