Hi Everyone have just had a look on Kingdom of the Giants just to see what their reation was to the game on Friday night and their reaction is os full of Bile towards the Panthers it is laughable instead of at least showing a little bit of common sense to the fact that no matter how many extra imports we have signed for the CHL we are representing out league. I know that they are trying to build a rivalry with someone as they have no local rival but the way they are going on I find it very strange it is worth a look though. I think there is a bit of the green eyed monster. No pun intended

Absolutely pathetic.
Worst fans in the league for me....
They are desperate for us to hate them back but were just not bothered.

isn't jealousy such a wonderful thing!
I love the fact they hate us, it means we're doing something right, as for them, I don't tend to worry about the little clubs too much

Great opening post and then goes downhill. A giants fan does try and say they should try looking at it differently but they just carry on with the hate. All I can say is everyone else in the league is wishing us luck except the Giants. Just proves who are wrong in this situation. I know KOTG isn't a full representation of the giants fan base and can imagine there not all like that.

Let them moan, in all honesty who cares? I dont. Not really a shock to expect rival fans to not want Panthers to do well. But do remember that KOTG like The Cage only represent a small percentage of their fans. Now lock the thread quick before Claretgiant starts off on one

Can we just bare in mind a forum represents a very small amount of fans and then the actual thread participants an even smaller number.
I've met brilliant fans from every club in the league and a few bitter people who forget it's just a game. There are some on here just as bad.
Just my two penneth worth.

Without opposition like Belfast Sheffield Coventry etc it becomes a beer league and everyone loses - every away game I've been to has been great for banter and chatting with the oppo fans about the sport we all love. Love and Peace!

I'm normally the voice of reason, but even I see that the vast majority of comments on the KOTG site, ignoring the point of whether our involvement in the CHL is beneficial to the league, are very negative towards us as an organisation. And until I see those negative comments counterbalanced by more than the odd positive response, I'm going to agree that it's pathetic to see such bitterness towards us. But do I care what they think ? not really, Panthers aren't in the CHL to win over a few Belfast fans.

Amusingly enough there are more unique posters in this thread than the KOTG one.

Who really cares what they think? Their laughable hatred of us is unbecoming of a team with ambitions to be the best.

Not at all surprised, but not really bothered either.
I don't know many Belfast fans, but I'm pretty sure that KOTG is not a true representation of their fanbase. Unfortunately, that thread most certainly is representative of KOTG, which is a total cess-pit... far more so than the Sheffield, Coventry or anyone else's forum sites. Insular, bigoted and arrogant, ranking somewhere between pond slime and Justin Bieber.
Let them live in their own special little world, they're all heroes inside their own heads. The rest of us will just get on with our lives.

I for one wouldnt mind if Nottingham did well in the CHL, but as a few Panthers fans pointed out before a match was played, there is quite a gulf between the Elite league and a lot of European teams in terms of funding available. This doesnt mean that teams from the Elite league should be detered from dipping their toe into the water if they have the finances available to them (as Nottingham have this season). Your team put up a brave show on friday, but today it was clear for all to see, there is vast difference, and i am sure it isnt going to get any easier as this competition progresses. I am also glad to see many Panthers fans feel that some comments made are not the genral feelings of all Giants fans.
