And are you telling me that it's coincidence that we only conceded two against the storm against a very good set of forwards even with the backup goalie in? Yes it is. We beat the Clan in Glasgow, a better team than the worst team in the league Storm, with the backup in and Hardy in the defence in front of him. The backup being in should always focus minds in front of him, it was also a game we had to win really, after the night before. You can argue as much as you like, I am just using stats here. You're using a very basic stat to hang our downturn on one guy. I'd think more likely we were over performing defensively in the early stage of the season and we've simply regressed towards a more realistic level, that could be for a number of reasons, including Hardy being a poor pickup, but I think if we're expecting to become solid as a rock again we might end up disappointed.

Mikka had an ice pack on the inside of his groin/thigh following last weeks Fife game, he said then it was a minor strain and he'd be fine for this weekend. Is this the same injury... I don't know. However this is twice now he has started possibly not being 100% game fit. I'm sure he would insist to CN on playing as he's very competitive. In hindsight perhaps CN should have just rested him and started with Greener from the offset, might have meant last minute tactic changes but maybe also not conceded soo many early goals?? I suspect get him match fit again and we'll see him performing as he did when he first joined, I don't see any reason to get another goalie in. With Hardy now gone our defence will also tighten up...

I suspect Laurence's review will end up being no further action taken, it was a harsh penalty in the beginning. Now wait until Tursdays press release... 3 game suspension! ?

Valid point NYR, I think several teams still do have their players national flag on the shirts... Blaze & Giants??

Apparently Swindlehurst was benched for the Fife game, don't think he played in the 3rd pd against Clan, hence Mosey going on D.
