You know me better than that Jord,in the wind up and sarcasm stakes you and me are most certainly in the top two. š¤£ But I didnāt predict anything about the top 3 or Panthers, just that Cardiff would become the force they are today. There will be plenty of people who remember that night at Saltbox when Black was squirming on stage. And yes I was the bloke sat at the front who gave him a hard time. I'd like to think in the sarcasm/wind ups stakes I'm more open to laughing at myself than you my friend.Ā If you think Iām serious about a lot of the stuff I say about myself Jord then you donāt know me as well as I thought you did. Iām laughing most of the time old boy itās just that people donāt read between the lines and see the sarcasm or humour. Come on Jord....Pidge sees it every time,open your eyes, youāre nearly as clever as I am. š¤£

Perhaps I'm just in a grumpy mood today.

Was this after they'd been taken over by the Canadians and Kelman, and had IAW on the horizon (or already moved in)? Well if it was at the last Q&A at Saltbox as maintained (Jan 2017) then it can't also been "around the same time as the takeover was *due to happen* and with Kelman in charge and hockey nut owners it wasnāt hard to see what was likely to happen". The take over happened before the 2014-15 season right? They'd come 3rd and 2nd in the league already (well ahead of us), won one Cup and were on their way to winning the league, playoffs and cup that season. So they'd showed their form relative to us and their trajectory over the past 2.5 seasons. So it's still an accurate prediction Iggy but not quite as much of a divination as it sounds if you've misremembered the dates It was before that,just as the takeover was occurring. Remember Iāve been out of it for four years so I donāt know how many Q+Aās there have been since. The whole thing was even taped too, Jono will remember it, he was sat on the next table with his TCW gang.

It's pure circumstance, the league table at the end of every season NEVER lies. Cardiff are a better team than us & have been for a fair few seasons. Funny that. Because I predicted that as exactly what would happen to Neil Black a few years ago at his last Q+A at Saltbox. Ah right, so your last Q&A not NBs then? That's were the confusion comes in

That's were the confusion comes in No it obviously wasnāt his last one then was it but the one before that. It was the first one ever at Saltbox as far as Iām aware.

It really that long since he last stuck his head above the parapet ? If it is,it says it all really. š

It was the first one ever at Saltbox as far as Iām aware. SaltBox opened in April 2016, so that was the first one. Jono recorded it for TCW, and it sounds from the thread that you were going to go (it was around the time of the Supporters Trust). The game it was ahead of was against Cardiff (hence their fans for you to point at), which, to bring it round full circle to the purpose of the thread, we surprisingly won.

I think Saltbox were sponsoring Panthers and thatās why GM had it there. NB said to me āwhat would you do first thenā so I told him āget rid of Moranā. He wasnāt impressed. Lol š¤£

There have definitely been circles within circles in this story...only to get back to the fact it can only have happened at a venue that didn't exist until after Devil's had already been under the new owners for 2 years. I feel like one of our defensemen watching Cardiff skate rings around me trying to follow all these changing convolutions š

Not sure we do anything different against Cardiff at home. More like a psychological issue Cardiff have playing against the Panthers in Nottingham. They never really fancy it.
