Nice to see that they read the forum :lol:
I can just see it know, oh god we forgot all about them :roll:
OK I'm going in!
Offtopic
Phil PLT, I doubt very much if the club make decisions based on the posts on here. More likely similar topics are discussed in the office as everyone cares about the club and I'd imagined they have discuss similar topics!.
But I suppose as a former member of the off ice team you would know how much easier it is to be on the outside throwing stones than on the inside doing the job. That’s not “rocket science” either, is it?
You have a lot to say about the size of the team, mistakes they make and often post negatively on various threads.
I am sure you had opinions of others who did that whilst you were with the Devils. I am equally sure that the current team do as well.
Why does it always have to be so insulting though, if even one person on here is unhappy?
They, unlike previous regimes, have stayed off the inferno – with the exception of rhythm who sometimes posts about music – and that in my opinion is to their credit. We all love this site but perhaps we forget that it was created to avoid the censorship, dictatorship and lack of freedom of speech that existed on the EIHL forum - Which was operated by the everybody’s favourite uncle that you worked with at the club! I guess you know all about the club getting a hiding on the web from experience.
It looks like this to me, and forgive me for being reasonable.
It’s the end of the season. Maybe tired people make cock-ups.
Awards night is on Monday for, from what I hear an impressive audience of about 300, and no doubt needs a lot of work.
Season tickets have just been launched
Negotiations with coaches and players are taking place
The playoffs have to be prepared for
The players need to be sent home, flights booked, apartment rentals closed off
Oh, and the small matter of a new rink by next Christmas, sponsorship and anything else not listed above off the top of my head!
Not everything has gone how we wanted this year.
Most of that has been on the ice and I for one would criticise a lot of the guys wearing numbers before I criticise the guys wearing suits! Some players simply haven't delivered or lived up to their pay cheque.
That’s my opinion and you of course have yours.
I don’t however feel your delivery does anything positive for this forum, or on a wider scale the club. It just creates and propagates ill-feeling.
I have spoken to two of the club’s management this year with complaints. The situation didn’t change but I felt like I was listened to and the explanations I got were logical.
I’ve posted pretty strongly on here lately about the management, but I don’t feel every problem is shared by every person at the club, and I try to back up my comments instead of making sarcastic swipes at people as it seems you often do.
Back on topic
The jerseys were late. It’s annoying. Is it the end of the world or the sign of a group of people that have nothing else to do other than annoy the guys here ? Not in my opinion.
Certainly not worthy of some of the abuse I saw Simon take at the rink! Including language that would get you thrown out of a game if you said it to an away fan.
Enjoy the weekend!
