The alternative could have been worse i suppose. If we had a proper team to watch it would make it good instead of the usual dross. Better having hockey instead of watching Britains got talent or x factor on a saturday night.

Seriously?! Explain how this is terrible in any way? It's boring watching the same teams every other week, it's killed the Dundee and caps rivalries and in the process of killing the braehead rivalry. The point of conferences is to regionalise to cut down on travel costs, ok fine but then you go lump the 4 big boys in together so they make even more money and get further away from the rest, then chuck the new boys the left overs in together, Cardiff are in a conference when there's 4 other clubs they're geographically closer too.

We are playing the exact same amount of games against the Clan, Stars and Caps that we played last year. I personally think this is a great idea going forward for Flyers, Stars and Caps to survive in the League.

happy enough with that, my only concern is the 4 arena teams may have to up there game in the process they could at a level where none of the rest of us get near them especially if that playoff final is anything to go by

Why. Their not playing each other more than they have been for a few of seasons now. They have more supposedly easy games OUT With their own conference. You just like to worry

OK hands up never thought that would go through. Less conference games and more games against the rest of the league. Im happy with that.
New coach up next and we are really moving forward!!!

Definite new coach to show we are players in the league rather than make up the numbers. Please show ambition.

And how refreshing it would be to have someone in our organisation put together a statement like this and give an honest assessment of where we stand in the EIHL.
