Well it should be basic thing to achieve.. turn up for your first day at work stuff but somehow panthers never achieved it.. Isn't today the first day at work? What stops all players being here for the first day of camp? Perhaps Hammond had a chat and has special permission? Anyway. Great to see Panthers still taking huge strides forward. Part of the reason i've avoided pre season games for years has been knowing we may only have half a team. If I wasn't playing cricket I may have considered going. Although it being Steelers knowing there is another 5 of them at home is still a bit of a turn off. This is one thing that’s still bugged me as well, we don’t need to play Sheffield so much, less is more! It’ll be 12 games minimum against them including pre-season and the farcical challenge cup! I’ll let the club off though because of the great strides they’ve taken to improve and to try and be the best. At least there’s something else they can look to improve next season

Got told someone at panthers this is the first time he can remember every member of the playing squad being here before the first exhibition game.... Can't just be down to Pacha.. can it .. You set an example and standard & 'they' will follow. The standards set by Panthers in the past have been utter dirge.

Players slow getting visas, turning up late, being out of shape, you hear all the stories, some you can even see. It doesn't sound like GG will suffer fools gladly.

And the one thing which really use to wind me up was panthers never seemed to learn by their previous mistakes or shortcomings or didn't care about rectifying them!

They’ve actually done a very very good job of looking at or listening to virtually all the things,big things and even little things that naffed the Panthers fans off and pretty much ditched them all. It’s like Pacha could see them all himself from afar and couldn’t wait to bin them. Well done him I say,a cracking job.

It's mad really. Pacha is just treating his supporters with respect

An open training session announced for Friday. When was the last time we had an open training session to invite fans to? (That wasn’t a sponsors only event)

Mmmm make of that what you will ! Thought GREEN was 'colour commentary' and the main man was 'Jonno Bullard' even if it wasn't worth a picture. He'll be in my book though like many others due a mention.

Christ they’ll soon have more bodies in the back office than there are on the flipping team roster !! 🙄

He's gone though isn't he? Retired after the covid year when they lost a bundle at the arena?

Christ they’ll soon have more bodies in the back office than there are on the flipping team roster !! 🙄 Though Mr.Bullard not in the office. A few mentions here, Ken Feast (DJ) David Litchfield (announcer) Fran Wiles (Timekeeper) Jaimie Howarth (live scoring) Denise Shaw (Scorer) PAWS (mascot Mr. B) Zander Wiles/Fraser Shaw (Goal Judges) Jay Crich/Carole Howarth (penalty Box officials) Sophie Rouse (Social Media). Does Bill Northridge still do the travel coaches (though outside of Panthers officially) ? Assuming this is still the line up on a game night. recently Andrew Howarth goal judge too did a few years.
