GENERAL - Continental Cup Final 2024

[rocketbob]

I can recommend staying at the Premier Inn at Cardiff Bay and getting the bus or taxis across.

A certain net minder may think he as a point to prove that weekend.
Lets hope hes not kicking helmets that weekend

 

[Wannabe2]

Be good to see him back.

 

[drainage]

FUTURE INN maybe
Probably need need a taxi though

St Davids Hotel is also close but probably dearer

I would as well to be honest, I couldn’t give two monkeys about European trophies I would much prefer to win the league or the play offs.

I think we will have a better chance in conti cup than the lge and playoffs, just saying.

 

[BostonBart22]

I think the fact that the Devils took the place when others turned it down means the club are all in to win it. And I can’t see the point in any other view on it.
Why would you not want to win every competition you enter.

Yes thanks to guildford we got in through the back door , now it's up to devils to prove to others we done the right thing.

Let's hope carruth is not as good now as when he was here awesome for us in his short spell.

Sheffield also turned it down after Guildford

 

[BostonBart22]

Just a thought is there an error on prices, no reduction for seniors ? Can't see concession any price only for children .

And you wonder why they turned it down, it maybe that it is a distraction to the domestic league / cup games compounded with injury / suspension issues and more league/cup game to fit in after losing that weekend's domestic fixtures.
I would have much more pride in qualifying for European competitions as deserved winners rather than an option qualification.
As said previously CHL and domestic much more of a priority for me.
I can't imagine the continental winners medal being displayed on any players mantlepiece rather than any domestic.
Hey ho my opinion, I will not be going.

 

[E.D.S.]

Fully respect that. I can never get excited about the Playoffs as the format makes a mockery of what should be an end of season show piece but when I'm there, in Nottingham, I want to win it big time. It's the same with the Conti. Having travelled and seen what it means to so many fans, the owners and players, I would rather win this than any other domestic trophy - this year. The Challenge Cup is pointless unless you're in the final and even then it's a one game shoot out, heavily weighted towards the team that plays at home, midweek with less away fans and has the easiest of groups to make them a number 1 seed.
Conti Cup all the way for me.

 

[Kevin roog]

I can’t imagine Guildford turning it down because of a distraction, more like they play in a leisure centre, unless they got too many trophies and don’t want anymore

 

[Kevlar68]

And I think sheffield turned it down for a reason not because they couldn't be arsed.

 

[Kevin roog]

Wasn’t Guildfords reasons because they couldn’t shut the swimming pool for 3 days and also couldn’t accommodate 4 teams

You DONT have to host it if your in it.

 

[Kevin roog]

No shit

You can expect the arrival of an organised group of fans from Katowice as usually. There will be good support and great fun in the stands. I have a question regarding tickets. I live in Dublin, and I'm wondering if it's possible to buy tickets from you and how it is with seating – can one move around the hall smoothly? Thanks

You a definitely move around rink smoothly, there are bars in 3 of the 4 corners and a main bar so getting around not an issue. Re tickets for away fans not sure sorry season ticket holders get to buy their seats from tomorrow until Friday (I think) there is an away block but not said yet (as far as I know ) how and when they go on sale. But you are definitely more than welcome!
