I’d be very surprised , Pacha already forked out for travel and accommodation to Clan this week as the team said it as pointless coming from Cardiff home only to be back on the road early, they travelled to Carlisle as a mid point . Then again Pacha already up in Dundee home. A very touch schedule again this weekend especially with the travel No he’s not, he’s literally in the next box from me as the game is beginning. yes I stand corrected DMS, I saw him to. He’s not usually around mid week as obviously lives in Dundee, you never know he might go up on the bus with them on Friday.

Very good crowd tonight and a fair number of Guildford fans, also a shout out to all the Sheffield fans that came to support with some nice banners aswell. Cracking game and well deserved win.

We very rarely win in Cardiff and on last weeks performance I cant see us doing it this weekend, Cardiff have worked us out, kept us to the boards and man marked the hell out of our scoring line. I'll keep my fingers crossed but wont hold my breath we are too inconsistent.

Aweful timing. Obviously he felt he wasn't getting the game time. Perhaps recently informed we had to stick with the number 1 to get the wins rather than rotation and wasn't happy with that. Will always appreciate any player that was here for the tragedy and stuck around after, so thanks for that. Funnily enough I was looking at the league goalie stats last night and his pretty much stink if we are honest. Had he gone pre deadline with us able to replace it really would have been no great loss. If Rok gets injured now we wilp be pretty screwed. Good thing Armstrong at Sheffield isn't around he loves taking goalies out. Rok would have been his prime target. and here's me thinking they would have used him at Clan this Saturday leaving Rok fresh for the win against the Giants on Sunday.

Robinson not a happy chappie, defence shocking really. 9 goals against is shocking.

What an horrendous schedule we have coming up, just had a look basically 16 games in 28 days Sat, Sun and midweek for almost a whole month and up and down to Scotland only to play at 4pm on the next day. They are going to be knackered.

Would life a win just like everyone else, but even a three goal lead against anyone is not enough. I’ll keep my fingers crossed for a sneaky win and our new guy to score and set the tone. (Neck truly on the chopping block...lol)

Has just come through on BBC radio Nottingham : An inquest into the death of ice hockey player Adam Johnson, whose neck was cut during a match, has been suspended as police inquiries continue. Following a review of the case, her office said on Friday that the suspension would last until July, unless South Yorkshire Police determined no one would be charged with a homicide offence in relation to the death. A long wait for the family to then find out everything suspended. www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-nottinghamshire-68107468

Just listened to the interview and for some reason he reminds me of Linger, he has that look about him and seems quite outgoing. Hopefully he settles in okay, At least Dupres will have given him the lowdown.

…..Sheffield next week 😞😩 Can see that being a cricket score Well Fife just beat them so who knows……no, sorry, we’ll get stuffed lol And Fife only had 3 D men on the sheet according to the commentator Laura with injuries and sickness in the squad. We were 2nd best all night, haven’t got that sniper in front of goal , we are miles behind most teams in this league, shafted big time with a small budget and it shows, no intent from the hierarchy at all.

Yup kolnik was just one in a whole line of players who wouldn't return due to getting alienated by the ownership Exactly mate. And people wonder why we criticise the club…. knowing this sort of stuff that others perhaps don’t is why ! It's still happening, comes from the top... always has he's just replaced GM with finance Freddie. Pacha may be the front face but the strings are being pulled by you know who.

I said on the Guilford thread I was sure the Coventry player came back on in the 3rd period as Carl Neill was having words (with someone)

I know DOPS are unpredictable but surely 5+Game for that was sufficient? It’s retaliatory, he sticks his leg out to catch Spellacy as he is going by and Spellacy didn’t return due to injury so I think at least 2 games would be a safe bet I'm sure he came back on in the 3rd period because Carl Neill basically said 'well you're okay then' to him right in front of us. ( I could be wrong)

At the end of the day its the same old. Pacha has a budget and NB signs everything off. One of the telling statements when we signed JP was "he did extremely well with a small budget" (last club) and that must have been music to NB's ears.. You have to look over the last few years probably since the league title win and we have actually gone backwards we are nothing more than a mid table club who spend just enough to keep the fans onside. We weren't brilliant before Adam's passing. I can't fault the lads or coaches, some obviously more 'broken' than others and while there is no respite in matches when do they grieve? Its a hard scenario and Neil / Pacha need to do something to help this bunch out because the injuries and everything else is crippling us and its heartbreaking to watch.

There will be plenty of tickets its not the same as it used to be since the league increased the prices that one year and it failed miserably. People found better things to spend their money on. We hadn't missed one playoffs since the arena opened but the last two we have given it a miss and had a playoff party at home with other season ticket holders. Gone are the days of 5am queuing for tickets and still being about 50th in the queue.

They've been overspending for years, my Mum has abit to do with the council as she runs an action group in the Meadows. Its been going on well before Covid when it all started to come to light most of the people involved resigned or left their posts to save face. same as the fated Robin Hood Energy debacle.

Good signing who we have to give time to get match fit, as stated hasn’t played at all this season. Let’s hope all the remaining players feel well enough to carry on once back in competitive hockey.

What a first game between Ottawa Senators & Detroit Redwings., Ottawa throwing away a 4 goal lead but drew 4-4 Into OT and managed to score with just 2 seconds left on the clock. My lad has gone out for the series and messaged to say he’s actually got Panthers fans sitting next to him. On a side note very surprised to see not one single player wearing a neck guard.

Hoping as many people as possible will arrive for warm up, it’s going to be emotional and incredible.

What I heard: "I was talking with Murph there at the end. They are gonna make some major, major surgery....A lot of money they are spending there" Then someone away from the mic is talking (can't make it out) "Oh was Murph losing it?.....Oh was Gareth (Chalmers) in the building?" Then I think there are talking about some injured players, when will they get back, etc... "yeah, but they need Major surgery that team" Then I think they are talking about time-outs, and the decision to pull the goalie? Not sure. "The way Murph was talking, they are gonna bin at 2 or 3 at least" Yes that’s the gist of it. (however omitting a fair few F’bombs from Lefebvre along the way) 🤣 The best one was Oh was Gareth in the building or was he hiding...lol

I posted on Steeltalk the absolute disgrace and insensitive post. Is this also the thoughts of Tony Smith via his ‘voice’ of the Steelers as he cannot come out and say this.? He has to be aware because the only one that losing money affects is Tony... I’m more appalled that he labels Adam Johnson’s life at £80k The poor guys not been gone two weeks yet and he’s on about losses. I hope to God Adam’s family never see that post & I cannot believe someone would stoop so low, I am speechless. As for the Halloween jerseys & another 20k lost well even their own commentator JJFearnley has said he never wants to see another Halloween blood spattered jersey again.
