'On Monday afternoon Thompson, who must have felt let down by some of the new players he'd put his trust in, finally showed how "sick of it" he was, by handing in his resignation.'

I also didn't understand the more technical and jargon-heavy aspects, but I also understand he's coaching adult professionals who have dedicated their lives to playing the game at a high level and hence I have absolutely zero concerns that the players don't know what's expected of them. They are no...

I think that covered most of it Brian. Like you, I also got lost in the technical aspects of the strategies and do wonder if some of the new guys are as well. The more practice we seem to be getting, the worse the powerplay seems to get Are the new guys in particular struggling to adapt to Fox's sys...

I find myself agreeing with ginger above. I think Fox does have the luxury of more time to put things right, but we can't afford too many more disastrous weekends before Tony has to think about making a change. As ginger pointed out, most successful coaches in our league are familiar with our league...

Fife are undoubtedly an improved team, but they're the sort of team we should be beating if we're serious about challenging for a championship. They've played two games in Belfast and lost 11 - 2 on aggregate. Our challenge this season was to overtake Belfast, but that looks a million miles off righ...

Looking at the tracking it's all Fife and we've generated very little in the way of chances. I do wonder if some of the new guys to our team thought this league was going to be much easier than it is. Up against hungry younger guys like Fife have signed, we're going to struggle unless we match their...

Well at least Fox didn’t focus on the OT goal controversy and called the game as others saw it. https://youtu.be/fc4R_RQ8HDE?is=eMIQ80J7GqTqb2FY He's right about one thing for sure - our PP stunk. 6 mins on PP and we barely had a sniff. They're his players and his tactics, so can he sort it and how...

The goal decision is confusing, I can only assume they think Greenfield deliberately kicked it off to stop them scoring, although i don't agree with that. No doubt Fox will focus on this, but my concern is the other 61 minutes we had to win the game. If you don't play a physical game, then at least ...

The goal was undoubtedly controversial, but let's not let it divert from what was an awful Steelers performance. No surprise we lost the faceoff in overtime which gave Fife the chance to score. Rubbish powerplays, rubbish at faceoffs, poor passing, poor puck control.....we look miles off a top team....

I can't find a single positive.
