Not heard any updates as to how he's doing?
We head to Belfast on Saturday for the biggest game of the season, so far. Who's our back up for our back up? Will the bat signal go out to Blair Daley? Jordan Marr?

It will be Little from the Kestrels - OR - I'm ure there are special rules in place for Goalie injuries. - We are currently an import light - So Fullerton from Edinburgh may be a choice as a back up ? If we get him before he flies home, I'm sure there is a deal to be done there. Would be a bit of a kick for Little, but I don't know how ready he is to go straight into a playoff series.

Or Stewart from Coventry ?

Not sure the ruling will apply when we still have our starting goalie available. Is the rule not in place for when a club is missing all signed goalies?

I'm sure if it was Nottingham or Sheffield in the same situation there would be an import goalie announced by now. little trains up, but as far as I am aware, is not signed for Flyers, but for kestrels. I may be way off the mark with this one

I think the transfer deadline prevents an ITC card being transferred to another hockey federation. If we "signed' an import goalie as cover from another EIHL team, they would technically still be playing in the same federation so I believe this would still be okay.

Little has the Kestrels play offs this weekend so probably wouldn't be available.

Anyone seen the update on Craig on the website? Our PR is just a gongshow from start to finish.

I head that Todd called up Renny Marr from the Kestrels, only to be told he wasn't there any more!

Just watched the injury on the highlights, looked a sore one for Craig. I do not get why defenders push opposing players onto their own goalie, seems to be something that happens more often these days.

If i was tam muir i would not be wasting money on a import back up goalie. We would be going in with craig douglas as back up, the likes of andy little and renny marr who might be available now are both in the same ball park as douglas.

I'll have to disagree with you on that one. we have played, essentially an import down since Christmas. We are in the Playoffs, It is only for 2 weekends, with no ITC card issues. If Belfast target Owen and no-one stands up for him, we need to have the best back up available. Little is playing in the SNL Play offs - 2nd leg. If you have to bring in a back up from outside Kirkcaldy then either of the 2 imports goalies available makes sense when we have the import slot free. alternatively - take your pick from either of the Marr brothers - if they want to, and if Todd wants them

Craig tweeting tonight during the awards night. He is still in hospital, must be bad if he is still in 3/4 days later. Hope he recovers ok. Does anyone know what is up. I assume a concussion but no idea if that's right!
