That's my mind made up. The whole thing is rigged.

Who's he? Connections to any club in the past? He's a former referee, did it for years, not sure of any connections however Apart from his reputation as Panthers' "pet ref".

Kirkham was one of the best refs, if not the best ref i've seen that I can remember. He proboably only stopped 5 years ago or so(could be longer. Time flys as you get older). Don't get me wrong he was still an elite league standard ref who from time to time got me out of my seat hurling abuse at him. But he was probably the best of that crop. He was around with Carson & Hanson so thats the benchmark for you.

He was around with Carson & Hanson so thats the benchmark for you. To be honest, I have more time for refs than most and think that they are nowhere near as bad as they are made out. Constant rule changes don't help either. If they were paid £200k per annum they would still get abused the same as all refs in the NHL and the Premier football league. Kirkham was to the Panthers as Carson was to the Steelers but I don't think either was biased. Having served on disciplinary panels I took umbridge to any suggestion of bias or prejudice and believe most other participants would share the same ethos.

Expect at least a one game ban - however the last two times that opponents have had players suspended the Squeelers have lost (Caps & Giants) - If they do get him banned then it will stink to high heaven - not that that will bother them - What does worry me is can they get one of our players banned after tomorrows game even though they are not the opposition - as an upright member of the EIHL can they report us if we do anything slightly wrong - (bet they will try)

Yeah including the latest one its now 7. So, basically then:- 9 EIHL teams = 9 games combined; or an average of 1 game per team including a big fat 0 for Panthers and Giants Sheffield = 7 games Brilliant

I was expecting to watch the vid and have to concede it was probably worthy of sanction, but I can't see anything there at all?

Manchester are 2 down tonight then seeing as they released someone to make room for Didomete coming in at the weekend. Having watched the replay of the video I'd maybe give it 2 minutes for tripping, but boarding?! Stinks to high heaven.

The decision stinks and the stats make for pretty uncomfortable reading when you consider the situation.

It's just a challenge cup game for them tonight, and they will probably win the group irrespective of tonights result.

It's not like it was a brutal slash or cross check that got missed. Just a little trip. None of the Steelers on the ice went for the guy so they obviously didn't think it was bad and or intentional. I bet the other 6 were all in meaningless matches as well.
