Say what you like about last years team but they never angered and disappointed me half as much as this team have over the past two nights.
That was a pathetic display. Garnett is the only player to come out of that game with any credit whatsoever, fair play to him for sticking out the 60 minutes.
I'm sorry Corey, thank you for everything you have done for this club and all of your achievements but now is the time to step down. We are getting worse game by game. We don't have some big injury crisis to blame this run on, his is the same roster that dominated the CHL group stage. Something isn't right behind the scenes and the person responsible for that is ultimately Corey.
To the players, thank you for showing up two minutes before the end of the game. I don't want to hear anybody saying how Gagnon showed some fight at the end, he should have done that after the first or second goal.
The loudest cheers of the night were for the under 9s. I have 4 tickets for the Coventry game on Saturday. Any offers anybody?
Paul Adey for me please until the end of the season then see who's available.

I’d take Adey as coach for sure. Something has got to give regarding Neilson....?

Put in a chimp in a suit, let him draw his team selection out of faeces smeered across the wall and we’d have a better tactician and motivator than Clueless Corey!
I’ve seen some bad performances in my time but that takes the biscuit. Christmas home fixture against Steelers and we muster 6 shots in the opening 40mins?! An utter embarrassment to sport in Nottingham.
Either start gassing some duds (Shalla etc) or grow a pair, and pull the trigger on Neilson!

Corey has been a good servant over the years, but his position it no longer viable. Many fans on this forum have known this for some time, but surely even the "it's only a blip brigade" would find it difficult to defend his position now. I have tickets for the next game but will not be attending and won't be selling or giving them away. Moran and Black need to see a slump in attendances similar to the slump in team performance.

There is one big change needed and that is the coach, surely he has to go?

Stood waiting for the tram. Cold. Panthers shirt crumpled up in hand. Would rather be cold than wear that tonight.

Well. Been a season ticket holder for over 15 years and that was a new low. Utterly, utterly appalling. Neilson should gang his head in shame. Totally devoid of any tactics, passion or ideas. That was like a training session for the Steelers and they could have won by a lot more. Gagnon should have done what he did in the first few minutes not at the end. Don't know why he didn't TBH unless ir was gutless Neilssen holding him back. Words fail me at the moment to add anything more about tonight's debacle.

Good job we've had the Teddy Bear toss otherwise there'd be some disappointed kids around the County!

As a Steelers fan, tonight was equal parts amusement and bemusement. Three weeks ago the mere whisper of this Boxing Day series absolutely petrified me; what on earth could our most unremarkable team in five years muster in resistance to Mokshantsev, Perlini, Phillips et al? We were comfortably dispatched in Nottingham around that time, too.
I'd be very surprised if there's absolutely no dressing room politics involved here. Regardless, there isn't a self-respecting professional sports team on the planet who wouldn't sack their coach after that much skill has seemingly evaporated overnight. Even after yesterday I thought we'd end up sharing the points, but I'm leaving Nottingham feeling a bit stressed for you lot. I worry that you've been held hostage to mediocrity by an ambivalent owner for so long that the rot won't stop if Neilson stays.

This will be the completion of 4 beautifully gift wrapped points for the Steelers and possibly the final nail in our League aspirations. This.

Adey till the end of the season, see if the team light up. Black to sell up And Moran to retire. Adey and GM together doesn't seem to be an option. I was almost ashamed last night and it seemed even worse tonight. Against Belfast I though tit was not acceptable and its got worse. How this is turned around I do not know and unfortunately there doesn't seem to be a plan to do so. Ironically I dont think this is a particularly good Steelers team, but they were quicker to be puck and out muscled us too often. Lots of things such as daft penalties and losing face offs, but power plays annoy me. Last night on one power play we put the puck on to the boards behind the net - no challenge so we lost it - it came out and we did the same and lost it. Tonight again the same tactic and we dont win it. There seems to be little percentage gain in the play - so why do it? Its almost write off time for the season. Recruitment for a coach needs to be thorough and to start now for next season. So much doesn't seem to be working at present I cannot see a quick fix. Sack CN and you have a real problem finding a coach at this time of the season. Similarly how many players would you get rid of and what is available. Then some are on long term contracts, which would have financial implications if they were to be sacked.

No point in gassing any players. If it were just Shalla and maybe 1 or 2 more then perhaps it should be players to be changed. Too many players have gone off the boil, players we have seen are capable and very good. That many players don't all become bad players so quickly.
A new coach needs to come in and engage this group of players we have seen prove how good they can be. Whoever the Cancer in the locker room is needs to go. Player or coach. Something is very wrong and it needs to change.
Too many proven good players have come to Nottingham and end up Duds for it to be anybody elses fault other than Corey.
Bye bye!

All the adjectives have already been used to describe tonight's performance - perhaps the worst I have seen in watching the Panthers during the last 15 years. If this was football then Corey would be on his way - no doubt. Clearly it is a results business and something has happened in the last month or so as performances have been getting steadily worse by the game. At the moment we'd struggle to give Edinburgh a game. It's probably time for a change of coach but my worry is they'll continue to play the sentiment card and put David Clarke in charge which would be a disaster. IMO he's already past his sell be date as player for 2 seasons.

A shambles tonight, disgraceful "performance". 15 shots for a team that couldn't score in a brothel, Garnett hung out to dry (although a few softies in there too), embarrassing.
Do something Panthers.

Shame on Neilson, GM etc making Lacho do the post game interview too!
Interesting post on Twitter from Brock Wilson tonight saying Corey isn’t to blame (not sure I agree with him with that tbh) but he says the issue is the attitude from above ‘sucking the fans dry’...
*Someone with better knowledge may be able to post the actual tweet hopefully!

Well not a happy bunny at all. What another gutless performance. How the did it take gagnon 119 minuets to try and do something when we are technically 9-0 down. Time for some changes starting at the top, they won’t happen but top of my player list 44 91 57 and a few more close to it.
Good seats still available Saturday.
