You’ve chosen the wrong medium then. The cage is the most ridiculed of all the fan media, and wouldn’t carry any weight whatsoever.

Shirt sales are not cash only, and haven’t been for a good few years. Sure, some people pay cash but plenty don’t. Sorry I meant the shirt auctions of which there are at least 3/4 a season.. I meant the shirt auction a as well. They are not just cash only.

We have been lacking in this area quite a lot this season.

It's worth noting that any money the club make won't be tax free. Profit will probably be in the low millions at the max. Then there's paying for the cars, accommodation, equipment, travel, medical bills, fitness/strength conditioning coaching, and all the other little bits and bobs too.Â
We'll never find out what the club spend and profit but at the end of the day, a businessman's aim is to make money so from Black's point of view.. why spend more when attendances continue to rise and profits (probably) continue to rise? If the club enter a serious decline, maxing like 4,000 a game, not competing for any trophies then money would be thrown at them but as it stands.. We're competitive, but end up flopping, which is made into the usual spin of 'we spent money, got a good, competitive team and did really well but unfortunately, things just worked better for Cardiff, Belfast and Sheffield' aka we tried, but didn't succeed. I'd love for us to just push the boat out, throw 50% more money onto our budget and assert the dominance we could quite easily have. We have room for growth, not a massive amount but enough to bring a fair amount more money into the club. Cardiff are severely limited, Sheffield are on uneven ground as to stuff with their arena, Belfast don't have a big core of die hard fans. Despite the lack of success we've had, we're probably still in the best position businesswise and I don't understand why not much is being done to push the club to its full potential. All of which is sponsored so basically free to the club plus all the shirt sales etc ARE CASH ONLY... think about that CASH ONLY, now why is that?... Shirt sales are not cash only, and haven’t been for a good few years. Sure, some people pay cash but plenty don’t.

Let's see them try and dodge that question! I predict a " They may even sink to echoing a few of Oakford's comments. Were you the guy who spat his dummy out when there was a discussion about the Ukranian netminder arriving late? I'm sure you used a similar analogy as Oakford has.

We buy on a game by game basis, but won't be at this one, or on Weds. Generally between 4 and 6 of us. Need a break from them.

And that’s what’s wrong with TCW. It’s not a balanced true opinion,it’s a biased,one eyed one where Panthers just can do no wrong. Come on boys,it’s obvious at least some changes need making to this Panthers team or set up. Thats the polar opposite of you.

If every Neilson team gets the quality coached out of them, why have we done well at the end of seasons with playoff and challenge cup trophies?

It comes to something when your best player is in the net and you are five two down after two periods.

Well this coming weekend is now massive. Two players out injured, a zero point weekend leaving us third, No cover as usual and the same old waffle from management. We’ve had a great start to the season but another failure this coming weekend will be a serious setback and again raise the spectre of season’s past. Our main competition acted quickly to get cover in. What will the Panthers do? Whilst not having cover for an outskater is disappointing, you cant really say we are two players out with no cover when we are running two very good import netminders.

The important stats are league points. Personally, if the team performs well I don’t care how the wins come and which players get the credit. Yeah I'd agree with you there Shorty but the question was "who starts in goal"? I’d go Galbraith for this one as I don’t think he’s faced Steelers yet.
