They have no announcemnts via the BBL website and no fans posting in here. No looking good for the the capital city's participation in the coming season. I hope i am wrong and thier will be a splash soon, but its only a few weeks now till the season tips off.. Edited by Mr Flea, Sep 2 2009, 01:20 PM.

As well as some of the Heat players (Joseph, Martin etc.) the following name was also listed: ISHMAEL FONTAINE (SG, 6'2", London Capital) I offer this as a morsel...

Franchise Player Posts: 2,921 Group: Member Member #49 Joined: July 11, 2006	Well- this evening truly brought me back down to earth!!! After 3 days of watching basketball in Poland and experiencing Slovenian fans making a noise and atmosphere that is actually impossible to describe successfully, I walked into Capital's court. I suppose the one plus point was I didn't pay, but a venue that can't actually provide one remotely clean working toilet, shouldn't be charging anyway. As for Capital themselves, they had some new guys and some returning players, some I recognised, some I didn't, but without even a single photocopied sheet with any info, it's difficult to give much info. Jivens is still player/coach and played quite a few minutes(why in a friendly I don't know!). Gariba has returned and did enough to make me wish that Vince would have signed him. Marc Pratt, Santa Ataha, Darren Mills, Ryan Cadogan and I think Marlon Capers all played. Other fans were there who may be able to add more names or correct these ones. Team select USA did not shine in the time I saw either of the games. Apparently the a team played against Capitals and the b team played against Leopards. The b team were smaller than the a team, but looked quicker and more athletic. The experience has really got me excited about the season ahead!!! Edited by Saintpat, Sep 11 2009, 11:16 PM.
