I see the Steelers are pulling the old “misuse of streaming” trick again on Saturday to avoid doing a webcast.
Ticket sales must be down eh. 🙄

Plenty of good, middling & indeed bad seats available.

Hoping the team respond significantly to what will likely be an intense week of training.
Barrasso has had a couple weeks now to get his systems integrated and players on his side. They've got Dowd and Owens back too, and despite being pasted by Devils they did well against Storm. Hopefully that didn't signify a change of their fortunes but I certainly don't think we can afford to underestimate or sit back at all during this one.
Was going to get the stream as I can't make the game but unless they're bluffing, won't be able to watch!

Was 50/50 between going or getting the webcast. I think the Steelers have just decided for me that they won't be getting any money at all. I won't be blackmailed by two point Tony and Simmsey. Cheers guys.  |

The Steelers are costing themselves money here. Mind you when you’ve had several games at £5.00 a ticket and still had terrible crowds Tony must be getting desperate for bums on seats. 😄 |

Nottingham need to make a mark here as to how the season is to go.Sheffield squeezed a win versus Manchester we don't need to give them a chance to pick up form.

Looking at the seat map of the entire arena there are a lot of very empty Sheffield blocks. If people are debating whether or not to go this is probably the best chance we are ever going to have of getting a good result there! If we bring a good following and get behind them we might give the boys that edge that they need.

If we can’t beat them on Saturday I would be very disappointed to be honest. From talk of if it was between us and the Devils to beating a very cheap team who have had a disastrous start and sacking the coach I think it would be a reach to hope to achieve anything at all this year.

Every game against Sheffield is tough because both teams don’t want to let their fans down, it’s a derby, form goes out the window. But Sheffield don’t have the quality in depth that we have and that’s an advantage, but by no means will these games ever be easy, which is why we need to support them. |

All depends which Panthers team turns up though. In most people’s opinion Panthers are comfortably the better team,but our record in the last 10 games is shocking.....won 4 and lost 6. Unless Panthers turn up properly they will get beat. |

Rationally, Panthers should win this. However I've watched Panthers long enough to know how easily they royally screw things up for no apparent reason. The fact that it is Sheffield could easily get into their heads, as has happened many times in the past. I am optimistic hoping for a win but even if we were doing brilliantly I wouldn't count on it. Based on how we've been recently, who knows?!

I think we'll win a close one, 3-2 or something like that.

Judging by the seating plan it looks like a really poor crowd for a Steelers v Panthers clash. 😳

I’d put quite a lot of money on it being the real reason. 🤭 And then, once they've conned as many people into going as possible, they'll announce a Uturn and put a webcast on to scrape in the extra pennies from those that haven't been duped. As it happens I was always going and got my tickets weeks ago. 15 of us going out for the day. We may make up half the people in the building at this rate. 😂 |

There’s still time but I thought there’d be a lot more Panthers fans than there is, normally we take a good following up there, it’s going to be lonely in that top block😂
There’s a lot of upper tier blocks which are practically empty though, which I’d say is a worry for Sheffield...

Sheffield's fans never go when they stink. It's the main reason they rarely stink for very long.

Steelers must be getting worried,these £5.00 a ticket arena games have been a disaster,the last couple of these games they only drew in crowds of about 4500. If you think about it that’s the equivalent of only getting about 1600 fans paying average full price. |
