3 wins out the last 11, dumped out the cup, the next 5 against Sheffield, Cardiff, Dundee x2 and Belfast could maybe see us sneak win at home to Dundee that would give us 4 out of 16 , we have a crisis Tam n Jack open your eyes before its to late

You should know the script by now; c*** first half of the season, changes made around Xmas time, then a wee surge that gets us into the play-offs and Todd lives to fight another day

The Follmer saga playing short half of our D missing for a month and now Fox and Stockton not playing, throw in to the mix we don't use our Brits, the only depth we have is at the national anthem at the start and the hand shakes at the end. That's probably a good reason we are where we are The directors have brought in Haines and Isaacs back to cover we have not had a full team from day one so Crisis yep injury Crisis The other thing is the Club are not a dripping roast we are a gate team with finite resources flying imports in and out is like pouring your money down a pit, I think the club have done there bit but we have just been unlucky with injuries the latest two down to thugery from the mob from the shops

I'm assuming the upgraded penalty from Saturday caused the injury to Fox, but these things happen in hockey, we should be able to absorb it as a team

Foxy himself had a hit reviewed Saturday night so swings and roundabouts. We've made our bed being almost completely reliant on having everyone fit which would never happen. We are a gates based teams which makes me think the penny pinching is a false economy. You see the gates drop by a few hundred when fans get disillusioned with these things.

I don't expect the owners to do anything.
I decided not to waste money last season and only went to one game. Been to three so far this year and wanted to give the benefit of the doubt but I've been sickened again. They will keep putting that product on the ice as long as people pay to go and watch it. I think the club's attitude to the EIHL this week shows that they don't want to be in this league. If they were building for the future then I would still have a season ticket but I think they are only ticking over waiting for another (cheaper) league option.

I think it can be summed up nicely by seeing that Tommy (yes - Tommy, not a forward, never played a forward, no skills as a forward) Muir was thrown on for a couple of shifts up front tonight against the steelers.
Looks like we are entirely out of ideas...and its not even Halloween. This is going to be a long season I fear.

Completely agree that they want to be in a cheaper league, why else reappoint a, at best, second rate coach who made a pigs ear with the off season signings. They have no ambition. A long season ahead if they survive.

If you are an ambitious player, ie Owen, Dingle, who would get in most teams in this league, you'd be knocking on the coach/ owners door seeking assurances that changes would be made. Possibly fed up of cawing your pan in, getting knocked about with no back up. And I would not blame any player on that team with the chance of a team who puts 100% in to competing in the league they are in from walking away from Flyers, as this team is not good for your cv or your health.
Todd's recruitment is terrible, he is no closer to achieving a game plan or settled lines than he was on the first week of training.
And yet again why have brits who were perfectly good enough a few weeks ago to get you wins when shorthanded sitting on their backside and in turn overplay certain imports. Again this is a choice he chooses to make then makes it an excuse in interviews.

And Owen a genuinely brilliant keeper is being hung out to dry. if Todd believes in protecting his players he'd better lace them up and go for it then, cause he has created this problem. It's becoming a joke.

3 wins from the last 12 games.
Todd recruited a poor team for this league yet again. He needs to thanked for his time and moved on. His teams are poor and style of hockey is amongst the most boring I've ever seen.
Chasing the game tonight and we constantly dump the puck giving up possession. Some game plan.
