Hi Dave,
just thought I'd drop you an email to tell you that you are making everyone who knows you so proud.
Dead excited every time you box and everyone I work with is fed up of me telling them how good you are.
Never mind the family and your friends, EVERYONE is rooting for you to go all the way and we know that you can do it ,you have got the city and the country behind you.
Dont think you realise how proud you make everyone feel of you.Your already a legend big man!!!
Keep up the good work and believe in yourself.
Its not luck its your destiny.
Your emotionally charged cousins Jamie and Tony Gibney.

I wish good luck to British Boxers and I wish they bring good results and happiness to all Brits and Her Majesty the Queen who I admire a lot
Though a Indian staying in Delhi my good wishes are to the British as we learned a lot from them

You're an inspiration to us all and you've made us very proud.
Enjoy the whole experience.
Joe Purnell (Robin Hood Primary School)
Congratulations to you all - you are all performing amazingly well!
Unlucky Joe, you boxed well against a good boxer on home soil and I'm sure you'd beat him if you boxed again.
David, it seems the only one surprised that you stopped the Russian was YOU!! You're my favourite for Gold - keep it going.
Good luck to Billy, Bradley and Jaffa for today - you can all win well.
Same to James and Kal, do the business.
Coaching staff are getting great comments on TV and it seems Robert is benefiting the boxers greatly from what they are saying too.
I hope you are all enjoying the experience
Best wishes
Nicky Piper
PMG Chairman
David what a great team captain you are i watched the boxing match with the Russian, you made me so proud to be British. He really did not like your power punches i think everyone should be worried as you are simply the best..Liverpools hero and Britians triumph

Without ever having met you, it seems to me you are a total champ regardless of having had to pull out of the games. I can't begin to imagine how you're feeling but you have my every sympathy. I have no doubt you'll be straight back up and achieving everything you want in no time.
Sincerely Rob
