    Coaching

    Genuine question - what's your basis for this? It's pretty specific. Is this just how you see a currently well performing opposition team, an assumption, or dissatisfaction with what we have?

    steelers Vs Devils - League - 16th Mar 25 - FO 16:00

    To end a 20 year wait. Similar to the 20 year wait for a POFW Not having a go at you here RD17 but As has been said, the level of entitlement some exhibit is astonishing if you follow professional sports for any length of time. Nobody likes losing. But I certainly roll the eyes at 'just...

    Block 4 drums

    Probably only me now that has them most likely, though copies of pretty much all my files remained on the Match night Hardware.

    Block 4 drums

    Not that I have any experience of drumming at rinks but here goes... Doesn't matter where the drums are if you stick to the golden rule - drum what you see, not what you hear. If a drum is struck in Block thirteen and B4 joins in when they hear it, it'll never get people going as it's out of...

    Lack of fear factor?

    Only problem there is - while I also miss the enforcers - Vother, Waresy and Big Mac would likely play two games all season with current DOPS - first one they sort everything out - lengthy ban. first game back they do it again - banned till end of season. It's almost a different sport to then...

    Devils Vs steelers - League - 21st Dec 24 - FO 19:00

    Delighted at that result. Means as much to the boys as it does to the rest of us when the Orange are in town and boy did they do us proud last night. GWG for Riley made my long day extremely enjoyable overall. Marty being Marty and our newest injection of talented players shining both in Cardiff...

    Cole Sanford leaves ESV Kaufbeuren

    So much this. 54 goals IIRC. If you're gonna be a one - trick pony, be the best at it. Ask AC/DC. Though he did have the great Scotty Matzka dishing it to him. I can only imagine some opinions if he turned up in teal, or orange, against us... The hardest thing to do in hockey is score goals...

    New development?

    There was a significant argument over who owed the outstanding utility costs, IIRC - PI or the CCC. Again through misty memories I remember whomever removed that eyesore sticking out of the ground became liable for the costs, hence CCC not developing it. Of course, PI wouldn't care as they were...

    Correct, yes.

    £8.50 ????

    Bars in town showing the games in previous years were as a result of personal contacts with Club folk, and it was good business as hockey fans are excellent customers. For me if I could watch it in the Arena with our fans that'd be ideal for me. It isn't for everyone but then neither is the city...

    Fans' Forum

    Damned if they do or don't, eh? This isn't aimed at you Kev, but your comment does highlight something for me. I really struggle when folks have complaints and issues and either don't attend, presume nothing will change, or don't even acknowledge the willingness of those who can make changes...

    Carruth

    Dressing rooms tend to sort themselves out. And if they don't management usually does. Never known that happen for no reason, even if sometimes an unpopular one. I've always been a Bownsy supporter and fan. I too am baffled by the level of the love in for a guy who, on both their best days...

    Devils Vs Flames - League - 31st Dec 23 - FO 16:00

    Have I said that? I am in the physical style camp for my preference like many a (particularly long term) Devils fan. So I would prefer to go down fighting if we must go down at all. I just think most posts can be distilled into great when we win and crap when we lose. The reaction to the...

    Devils Vs Flames - League - 31st Dec 23 - FO 16:00

    I don't remember crowing abut beating the Blaze in my post. I said nobody said it was boring as shit. Nobody likes losing but the team is second only to the best Steelers outfit in at least 12 years who are destroying everyone. I just don't get why anything less than a physical battle and...
