Football:Guernsey star seriously ill
It is believed that his collapse may have been due to a burst blood vessel in his brain.
The coma has been medically induced to allow staff at the hospital to assess his condition as they wait for pressure and swelling in the affected area to reduce.Smith is one of several Channel Islands youngsters who has forged links with the Premiership club and is acknowledged as a very promising footballer.
He was taking part in trials for the club when he was taken ill.Southampton FC was home to Guernseyman Matt Le Tissier for many years while the CI link continues with Jersey’s Graeme Le Saux a current first team regular and 16-year-old Jersey schoolboy Joel Speight currently playing at junior level for the club.Although it is not thought that Ollie and Joel would have been training together on Tuesday,

Ollie’s a pleasant lad,
ghd, it’s an awful thing to happen to anyone,

Today I am leaving for a two week vacation to Europe. My long lost college roommate and I are going to be hitting up Spain and Italy and in Italy Vlad will be meeting up with us for a Gondola ride or two! I am super excited for this vacation and this time will actually be vacationing. We are lucky enough to have someone who will write posts for me while I am gone, Nerdphanie! You all remember her as a guest blogger! Now she is signed on as a two week blogger to fill my spot. She will bring you lots of new bags and goodies to look at. I will be posting sporadically, but not my usual four or five posts a day
