I’ve never been so glad to create a thread that got it so wrong. I’m actually chuffed at no threepeat. Partly because I’ll never have to read threepeat again At least not for another 2 years....

Watching that game as a neutral I don’t know how anyone can defend the officials, the lack of calls on obvious and blatant penalties was astonishing. I understand that in a game like this you’ve got to let it flow but I’d be spitting feathers if I was a Devils fan.

I have a lot of admiration for Cardiff and everything they are doing. I couldn't have imagined prefering Giants to win it over Cardiff. Petty I know but but the whole Rissling hit on Mosey thing and the spawning of Mardiff changed my mind. Pleased to see the Giants grab it at the end. Or more to the point, Mardiff taking back their Chokers crown in style.

Do you know what makes me happiest....Mosey pulled out of a 2 year deal with us to try himself abroad. Comes back after 3 months for the money and still doesn’t get the big one. Karma.
Yes I am bitter. Don’t care!

Yes I am bitter. Don’t care! I forgot about him! Serves him right I suppose. The Inferno is an interesting read atm...

In this special moment for almost all in this thread let's spare a thought for the ex 3 time poster who went by then names of devilsdude, cardiffhockey & barmyarmy. Bottled 3 profiles, much like the devils bottled the 3peat.
Or we could all just point & laugh, up to you lot really...

Belfast were the best team to visit the NIC this year for me. Decent chance of a clean sweep now too.
Both teams are a country mile better than us.

Just finished eating my words when I claimed it was all done and dusted when Mardiff took a 4 point lead. Glad they didn’t get the three-peat and happy enough to see the giants win the league. I bet tonight was gut wrenching for the fans of both team, I was hooked on the updates coming through via social media! Here’s hoping panthers are in the hunt up until the last day next season . . . And come away with the goods! We’ve had good battles this season for playoff positions and the league title. Overall a win for the EIHL even though it’s still a bit of a farse. Giants for the grand slam?

Devils travelled to Sheffield, Dundee & Coventry over last 2 weeks, 7th 10th & 8th in League & didn’t return home with a point!
Congratulations Giants.

Not the one you are looking for but one of many.. .Lord's team just got taught a lesson in having a set. By a rookie !
Ocko: Never understood the fuss over Nottingham or Belfast during the summer. Nottingham have recruited a team who will take high Pl Ms all year and lack the high skill of a championship winning team in the 0-Zone, across their 4 lines.
In Belfast, Keefe is a terrible coach. He's the darling of the EIHL, everyone seems to like him for some reason and that automatically makes everyone think he's a decent coach.
They caught us on a bad day in the CC, look how their league campaign fell apart and how one dimensional their team is.
I'm more concerned with Fife than anyone else.

There's plenty of them out there, Gisland. I imagine you are enjoying yourself no end on their forum. They've had it coming big style.
Fair play to jk for posting in here, I doubt we will see many more from there for a little while.
Congrats to Belfast & your coach who seems a decent bloke.

Had what coming 'big style' Jord? Missing out on a league title? Bit rich coming from a Panthers fan, isn't it? Remind me again how many times Nottingham have won it in the past 40 years?
l really do hope you lot sort your act out next season and are in thick of it, l sincerely mean that, maybe you'll have something positive to talk about then rather than the constant moaning about your own club and transparent envy of others.

Can't blame anyone for highlighting arrogance / enjoying their discomfort when the Devils fanbase put it out there on social media. I know you read / post on the Inferno and some of the Devils fanbase deserve everything thrown at them..They had their ego trips massaged, national pride wailing and chest beating during the season. Now if one was going to post something that could be construed as gloating ( Your words on another forum) I would imagine it might go something like this
"Now for something factual. The Devils did bottle it. Lord didn't get the team up for it. The Devils did miss out. The Devils are 2nd best. 2nd best in the league. 2nd best in the conference and didn't show in the Challenge Cup.
For a team that was to be all and everything, the possibility of them crashing out with zero is being enjoyed by fans around the league.. Lord knows ( excuse the pun ) Nottingham fans have shown more resolve and strength of character by siding with their team, through the door, in their thousands week by week, month by month, year in year out. They pay the ticket price and haved earned the right to "be a little rich"
IF the Panthers ownership decided on an arms race, you wouldn't get a look in. I don't think any team in the league could sustain an all out wages war with the Panthers.
Oh, and tell Todd thanks for keeping the Viola arena nice for the Giants. Have enjoyed going into that building and coming out with Silverware. 2 years in a row..( Wonder if they can do a three-peat. ) Should he want a copy of the Belfast City song just ask the Giants or Blaze for a copy."I think at the moment it might be a little insensitive. So I won't say it.

The thing is, the Devils fans who post all of the arrogant rubbish really don't care who answers them or with what , so pulling them up on it is like water off a Ducks back for them .Also, as you are well aware, not of all if us are like that so please do not clump us all together !! Every team has it's idiots.
On our weekend in Belfast I had just come back from a lovely trip to the rope bridge and Giants Causeway. Walking along back to my hotel ( 49yr old female) on my own, I have a jacket with a tiny Devils logo on it, I was verbally abused by a couple with Giants shirts on. All fans have their idiots, just better to ignore them than indulge them.

In 40 YEARS seasonal play I can count a few 'winners' titles myself within the domestic season, though you'd want to conclude that we are not winners. League titles are a tad bare for us but we know that it's managerial based faults as we could have done better we believe. You'd complain (moan) about the same if you were in our position. But your not, you're in another position. One of extreme confidence that has been knocked back.

Oh Jizzland126, I know full well you know I read and post on the inferno. As I told that other snarky little worm Claret though, enjoy your moment. Nothing lasts forever, especially in Hockey.
I'm not going to argue, some of the comments and threads created by Cardiff fans over on the inferno made me sick this year with the level of arrogance, and yes I am a Devils fan and have been since the 90's. However your smug little responses aren't doing the Giants any favours. Please, feel free to quote/plagarise some more social media crap as a reply though then be a hypocrite and say it isnt gloating just because it has quotation marks either side of it.
