Just looking at the remaining fixtures,things may not be over for Panthers yet.
9 home games left
8 away games
Only 4 potentially really tough away games,Coventry (2),Sheffield and Belfast.
No more games in Brahead
No more games in Cardiff
Compare that to Belfast and Sheffields remaining fixtures and i'm optimistic we could still win it,providing we lose no more than one game in total from the four games against those two teams.

Whilst theres a chance i suppose we have to stay positive. Buts its not for us to believe in our players, its for them to believe they can still do it. This is where corey and strachs need to earn their money

Feb 4-Mar 25th - 51 Days, Steelers have 21 games to pull in - I'm hoping legs will tire and bodies will start to give up a little as we get into that.
Same period ourselves and Belfast have 15. Could get interesting.

.... though we may well have two CC games to fit in, so maybe the differential wont be so great  Anyone see any issues that Belfast and Panthers have their last league game on Saturday 24th, yet Steelers (and the other 7 teams) have their final game on the 25th? Doesn't quite sit right with me. |

Doesn't quite sit right with me. It's all a fix didn't you know!!  Seriously though, Belfast have 6 games out of the remaining 15 against us and you. Twice against you and 4 times against us. The league isn't over for you but you must win both times against us and Belfast imo. I'd take our run in over Belfasts any day of the week. 21 games left with 12 of them at home. Win our home games and the away games against Coventry (who will of course lay down for us) and the Scottish contingent would be enough for us at the cuurent time. |

I think Panthers final game of the season against Belfast will be the decider
for 2nd spot.....
Shuff will have wrapped up the title a week or so earlier...

3rd in the league could have a very very tricky playoff 1/4 final IMO.

Sheffield are going to win the league at a canter. They keep just doing enough to scrape wins every night and they're the teams that win leagues. That's why we don't.
