IF Fife win their last three Conference games the mini league will look like this...
Fife 32 games 43 points
Braehead 26 games 33 points
Dundee 26 games 33 points
If we add two virtually guaranteed wins each v Edinburgh, it changes to...
Fife 32 games 43 points
Braehead 28 games 37 points
Dundee 28 games 37 points
Both teams have to play each other twice and Manchester twice, so if Braehead and Dundee share a win each in their games, they would need to beat Manchester in BOTH games to catch us.
So... In a tie for positions, it is down to regulation time wins. How do I find out what all the teams are on regarding this?
I reckon if we win our last three games, we have a decent chance of winning the Conference and taking 2nd Seed.
Saturday's game is MASSIVE!

Also noticed that the face off in Manchester is 5pm on the Sunday. Would be home for midnight. Will definitely travel down for this if we beat Braehead at the weekend. |

Storm are in form and I think will take points off of both of them and possibly us also. If we win these game I think we take the conference but it's all up in the air just now. This weekends game will go a long way towards deciding it - although not deciding it totally...
Nervy times!

I agree with what's been said here. The wheels seem to have come off at braehead in the last couple of weeks,highly unfortunate. Dundee were on a pretty poor run up till last weekend. Crunch game this weekend and the two remaining. Win those, we got the points on the board and the pressures on our friends to the north and west.

Was just gonna ask, who should we support tonight? Lol
Regardless of what happens, things are gonna be super tight. A win vs Caps and a win in Manchester would see us do it I think. Clan seems completely demoralised and I thing they have another tough night ahead of them tonight. Frikin Dundee haha

A run a-la-2 seasons ago now. Win the conference and I see us going to Nottingham. Thursdays game will be a huge sign of where we`ve come this last 6 weeks or so. Am away to check the hotels now for the 1st week in April  |

Need a Dundee win in regulation this evening v Braehead. Yup. dundee win in regulation, we win our remaining conference games, then both dundee and braehead can only equal our points tally with no slip ups. |

Yup. dundee win in regulation, we win our remaining conference games, then both dundee and braehead can only equal our points tally with no slip ups. Dundee do win 2-1 in regulation! We have our perfect weekend. Stars and Clan also have to play each other again so at least one of them will drop points. We have a hard game away to Manchester but our 2 rivals have to play them as well (Braehead twice). Think we're slight favourites now. |

We cant under estimate any of our next two Conference games
Remember Clan last season, The Caps put an end to their League Title aspirations.
This is the best chance we have had since the BNL to win something
The Club will be aware of this and the need to Focus on one game at a time.
Next Sunday is huge but First up League leaders and title favourites the Cardiff Devils.
Were due them one and they will remember last year when we beat them in run in to end of season

I think a win vs Cardiff would be great and go a long way to keeping this confidence going. However we have a chance at silverware in the conference and for me that's the priority. I'd be happy with a close game and no injuries personally.
The Edinburgh game is a must win and shouldn't be taken lightly COYF

Yup. dundee win in regulation, we win our remaining conference games, then both dundee and braehead can only equal our points tally with no slip ups. Still got a wee bit to go, as if there is a tie it goes down to regulation wins, which we're not looking great in. Looking a lot better now, but still don't think it is in our own hands. To have ANY chance, we must win our last two Conference matches. |

So, IF we win our last two Conference games AND Dundee and Braehead beat Edinburgh in regulation time (both play them twice) the Conference will be
Fife played 32 regulation wins 17 points 43
Dundee played 30 regulation wins 16 points 39
Braehead played 29 regulation wins 17 points 37
Fixtures are
28/02 Dundee v Manchester
06/03 Braehead v Dundee
12/03 Braehead v Manchester
13/03 Manchester v Braehead
Both teams need to lose one more match each to make it safe for us. As Braehead are playing Dundee, only one team can catch us. Manchester need to do us a wee favour.

It's certainly not a given that we win our last 2 games. I think we all hope Manchester take points off Braehead and Dundee but with that in mind, we won't have it easy and could lose that game. One game at a time lads.
