How many times have we put out the Clan at qtr final stage over the last few years... can see them coming up trumps this time tho' we are going to be tired out.

Well Im trying to stay positive but as EMB says we will be coming into the first game with little rest after a make or break Challenge Cup second leg. Will we have our vital injured players back? Who knows. And our last two visits to Glasgow do not fill me with optimism of success.

Breahead will be up for it this time for sure.

Think our season will come to an end on Saturday, I think Braehead will play it tight on Thursday and take us to the cleaners in Glasgow. It's been painful at times this season.

Breahead will be up for it this time for sure. So will we, Corey will have them chomping at the bit, all guns blazing, three solid periods. Our away form is second to none.

Thing is results against the clan have been so varied I can tell. 8-0 in the challenge cup, but lost 8-2 a few weeks back. Neither team are in form at the moment, tense game!

We meet, yet again, at the quarter finals. On Clans present form I don't think Panthers have much to worry about although I do hope I am wrong!

This couldn't be a nicer build up... "You're gonna win it" "No, you're gonna win it"

Surely Neil Black wouldn't want to see his prized money making possession Nottingham Panthers lose to his extra few quid Braehead Clan hahaha
Neil: hey finner you've done good this year want to return next year? Finnerty: yeah sure boss sound great!! Neil: well throw away the quarters and the jobs yours mate Finnerty: I can't do that, I want to win!! Neil: well all want to win Ryan but the fact of the matter is this, you either throw the game and let my panthers into the weekend or you beat the panthers and I give you a poop reference and you end up a beer league coach earning $50 a night? Finnerty: well when you put it that way me black I sure am happy in Glasgow and would like to be here next season Neil: glad we could sort this in a nice respectable fashion Finnerty: yes me to sir ps I love you
Granted I might have got carried away in a comical spin but that's the kind of thing I can see happening, just like the other year when we had to win by 4 goals and did just that in the I believe campaign

I'm wondering where our own coach Mr Neilson is hiding,because he's sure been keeping a low profile lately,i think it's two weeks now and we havn't heard so much as a peep from him.
Perhaps he's run out of excuses for poor performances and can't explain a season of 25 wins and 27 losses !

If we manage to squeeze past them, then the chances are extremely high that we will face Belfast in the semi on playoff Saturday. Oh joy

Not necessarily Caesar,there's a fair chance either Cardiff,Coventry,Fife or Hull could beat Dundee in the quarters.
I'd say if we get through we are more likely to play Sheffield in the semi.

I thought that the highest seed played the lowest, so if everyone won their quarters, it would be Panthers v Giants and Steelers v Stars.

Not sure though, do you take a teams seeding if they are higher than you and you beat them?

That's the grey area Caesar the do you take the seeding bit.
The way i understand it,if 6,7or 8 get through they would play Belfast assuming Belfast got through.

I'm with you now, I think you're right. Let's see how we get on against the Clan first. Id love to go on Saturday but its over £100 in fuel and its a hell of a drive back if you don't stop over.

LOL, the part about our away form had me really laughing out loud. Been a long season, the injuries , suspensions and that awful Continental Cup have taken there toll.

Pity they don't do a webcast there. Great bowl with loads of atmosphere.

Okay, thank you I thought I'd seen or heard it somewhere that it was next Tuesday which I did think was quite strange at the time. Would love to go up there but as said one hell of a journey if not staying over.
