Should be a straight forward win against an 8th place side.

4-1 Steelers.

We're following a similar pattern to last year in regards to our home and away form.

On the road we were excellent, with most of the stuttering performances being in front of our own supporters.

Again this season we've been exceptional on the road, but there have been recent signs of stuttering at home with the struggles against a poor Coventry team and Glasgow.

We do seem to have a bit of an issue against teams who play a very hard nosed defensive game around their net and then try to catch us on the break.

If I recall correctly last season we won all our away games against Guildford and lost the home games.......Time to break that cycle if we want to win the league.

Will Sam Jones play in this one? My mate did say someone on Twitter had suggested they'd seen him on crutches in Belfast.....I hope not, because he's been very good for us.

There's a busy period coming up, the last thing we need is lots of injuries to scupper our title challenge. Hopefully we can bring in another import as insurance for injuries.

Regards

Doom

Perhaps we need to think differently as supporters.

When the Flames come on to the ice cheer them and start chanting their name.

Let's make it hostile for the Steelers players when they make it on to the ice.

If our players think they're on the road they'll probably perform better.

Kick Dave Simms out of the Whitehouse? E:p

New injury cover signing Zach Vinnell ( ex Glasgow) to be introduced pre game.

Hoping for a good win tonight.
