From Panthers website

Fixtures about to be unveiled...your club needs YOU!

The upcoming Elite ice hockey league fixtures are due to be unveiled (home games start with the visit of the Bison on September 10th) and the GMB Nottingham Panthers are looking for your help.

The home campaign starts on the weekend of September 9 with a roadtrip to Belfast and the team coming back to the NIC for the first home game of the season on Sunday September 10th against the Basingstoke Bison.
On Saturday September 16th the GMB Panthers are at home to the returning to action Manchester Phoenix.
On Saturday September 30th Cardiff are the visitors to Nottingham. The full list is due out very soon.
The GMB Panthers will be promoting the sport in all the usual ways and some extra ones for the new season.
A club spokeswoman told the website : "There's advertising in the media, radio competitions, banners and posters, events, the fleet of cars, exhibitions, a new website, several special features in magazines and more in the pipeline.
"Of course, our biggest marketing tool is our fanbase. The more people the fans encourage to come to games the better for the club, the league, the atmosphere, everyone.
"To that end we have got thousands of new leaflets and fixture cards available, along with hundreds of posters, so if there are any fans who think they can help us to promote the club by putting up a poster at their place of work and handing out or distributing the leaflets and fixture cards we'd love to hear from them in the office.
"The emphasis is very much on team effort this year and that applies off the ice as much as on it, so if anyone thinks they can help in this way all they need do is ring the office on 01159413103. Thanks."

At this short notice? - not a chance.

There you go, EIHL.... with no Lions game that day, I might have been up for that trip - if we'd actually had it confirmed in reasonable time. Add one more fan whose ticket money you won't be getting that night because you dragged your heels and kept us in the dark!

We're also in Edinburgh for a double header weekend on Sept 23rd/24th.

Because they won't get any revenue from selling tickets for those games.

[charlish2099]

tickets will be on sale two weeks before games, thats from panthers on phone:-) roll on september 16th!!! cant wait. my first league game in 9 months!!!!!

Confused??

Why havnt Panthers got a fixture on the 17th?

There are 10 teams in the league, so even if we can't play at home we should be able to play away should we not?

2. If one looks at the Hull Stingrays website it appears some of their fixtures are challenge cup games and some not?

I thought that challenge cup games were to be incorporated into league fixtures?

If there are seperate fixtyures for the Challenge Cup, does anyone know how the teams have been divided into the two groups.

3. Does the EIHL have any clue what its doing?

(Don't answer No. 3, we all know the answer ;D)

Can anyone help?

Regards

HL
