When was the last time a league fixture between us did not sell out in Nottingham?

I'm hopeful for a Carter hat-trick and a rip snorting offensive game from us....

We'll turn up for this, it's text book Panthers. Probably still lose, but it won't be another 8-1.

Could be an embarrassment. Really not looking forward to this at all.

Before the fixtures came out, I bought a concert ticket which was for this date, when the fixtures got released and realized that this fixture clashed, I was kicking myself. Well I'm not anymore. I shouldn't be thinking that for the 1st home league meeting against the Steelers.
I'm also guessing that the articles on the Panthers website in the coming days will probably be featuring articles describing how they want revenge, that it is going to be a great game, biggest rivalry, want to show the other teams that the Panthers are still in it, looking forward to it and great seats available.

Wow. Should we just forfeit the game now and not bother at all? Things haven't been great and the team isn't the best we've ever had but sometimes you just need to go through the bad to appreciate the good. I went to the 8-1 mauling and I was fuming after but I've drawn a line under that and I'm going to say we'll win. I hope that each one of those players who played that night wants to put right that humiliation and the ones who didn't play want to make up for that fact. I ain't no happy clapper but I certainly don't see us being that bad again!
I am prepared for the onslaught on here but hey I'm a positive guy!

Other fans wonder why the atmosphere of the arena is dull. Just read the posts from most of the people above me to find out why!
We have such a depressing set of fans who would rather sit and wallow in self pity than get pumped up and TRY to be excited for a game of hockey in which they supposedly SUPPORT the Nottingham Panthers. Yeah, we're looking towards a league defeat because whether you LIKE it or not, the Sheffield Steelers ARE better than us in every single possible way this season. So what? Are we THAT set of fans who think it's gods right for us to be the better team every year? Do we deserve to win every home game? No, it's not our right.
You should support your team because it's YOUR team, you're a fan, you're not entitled to win, you're not entitled for every game to be the most exciting hockey game in history.
Personally, I wish these depressive fans would just stop attending, completely and never come back. The constant whinging from life-long self entitled fans is starting to wear thin with a lot of other fans now.

I'm not arguing the fact that they're currently boring to watch and it's a complete struggle to win. I'm just sick of all the self-entitled fans who sound like they're suicidal before the puck has even touched the ice.

The constant whinging from life-long self entitled fans is starting to wear thin with a lot of other fans now. We go to every home game and most away games and what other fans are telling you there is utter BS. Sheffield Arena, (the new) Cardiff Arena, The Skydome, Breahead are exactly the same when their team is being beaten or playing badly. When we win at the Sheffield Arena or the Skydome most of their fans have even left before the final buzzer! I wouldn't take a lot of notice of what other fans tell you. Away support is always a lot more vocal albeit from a much smaller number of people of course. People pay their money and take their choice and people living in some sort of fantasy eutopia need to wake up and smell the coffee.

The constant whinging from life-long self entitled fans is starting to wear thin with a lot of other fans now. The atmosphere in the arena is dull because the team is dull this season. But you think the atmosphere in the arena is dull because of the 6-7 people who posted in this thread? The second paragraph is such a patronising, assumptive, generalisation that it's barely worthy of response. As is the third. Actually, as is the fourth. You are making way too many wild assumptions about the general fan base and posters on here. You have no idea. How many of these posters do you know? How many do you sit with in the arena? How do you know that people that have a moan on here aren't loud and proud in the arena? Anyway, as for the game, I think we'll lose. I will also be 'pumped up' and 'excited' once I'm there. I will support my team once I'm inside the arena and won't sit there 'wallowing in self pity'. I will come back although I may also have a whinge in-between games also.

The constant whinging from life-long self entitled fans is starting to wear thin with a lot of other fans now. I remember responding to a similar post last year. And i think i'll say the same thing. Panthers are my sports team. They have always been my team. They will always be my team so long as they exist. I have put thousands of pounds, and god knows how many hours into supportig them. And i always reserve the right call it like i see it. This year simply hasnt been good enough... again. Your right about it not being our right to win or be super exciting every game. No fan of any team has that right. But to just bush off the fact that Steelers are 'just better than us in every single possible way this season' is ridiculous! Why should we accept that? I dont know about you. But myself and many other fans, have watched Panthers be a second tier team. Though the 90's and early 00's you expected to lose to Steelers. We just couldnt compete with that level of spending. Not anymore! Ive paid my dues, I slogged it though the baron years. And my team is now one of, if not the biggest team in the country. I expect them to compete! Every night! Every season! And this year they havn't, and im entitled to say that. It simply isnt good enough right now.

I'd accept boring hockey if we were winning.
Dreading this weekend.

I agree with the comments that the arena is boring and dull, unfortunately that is due to the fact that we have developed in to a reactive fanbase for some reason.
For example, last season Cam would come flying with a check and wipe someone out or make a startling thud and everyone got their tails up, that excitement he brought was unique and we are missing something like that this year I'm afraid.
The number of part time or one timers is too much as well, too many drunkards are family's how take very little interest but unfortunately that comes with the location.
IF the arena is going to be noisy and intimidating in the slightest then the club needs to dedicate a block for fans who want to create an atmosphere because that is the only way fans will take notice by the club doing something, there is very little chance of that though.
Although it will be a full house on Saturday there will be very little people chanting or getting involved.

I'm just sick of all the self-entitled fans who sound like they're suicidal before the puck has even touched the ice. I suppose you'll say the same for Leafs fans in the NHL too? People still turn up, they still talk. Just because people are sick of being taken for a ride and are sick of lazy hockey doesn't mean you should be questioning their support. As you've done previously. God forbid fans start to get fed up, maybe if the players started getting it together and act like they want to be here the fans would back them. The arena is dull because we're an attraction these days with more customers than fans.
