It all feels very much like the two seasons before the Grandslam, when we fell apart in the 2nd half of those seasons.

Teams seemed to find it easy to keep us on the outside and we were unable to generate good goal scoring opportunities.

We're struggling to create good opportunities now, with top players from last season really struggling to find their game.

I was hoping tonight against a struggling Fife team we might get going, but unfortunately so far that doesn't look like it's happening.

There's a lot of work for Fox to do in the next week if we want to avoid being out of the title race in 2025.

There's still time tonight, but we really need to step it up.

Regards

Yeah we were saying the same last night during the Panthers game. I’m surprised to be honest with bringing back much of the core of the amazing grand slam team. I thought the amazing character shown last season would automatically continue into this one.

It appears the team character has gone missing at the moment. Last season’s mantra of not losing 2 games in a row doesn’t ring true for this season.

Hope that our booming third will enable us to recover. I fear for this team at the moment. They look lost, losing battles. Shooting from hopeless angles and misplacing passes.

I cannot believe how bad this team have got. I was about to say that the only part of their game that was good was the pen kill. Even that has been poor tonight. The power play has been abysmal again. They are not just losing, they are losing without a glimmer of hope. I see no feature of their play tonight that gives cause for optimism. It has all gone seriously wrong since Berlin. If ever we win the league again then I hope the management think seriously about taking part in the CHL.

Well Fox has got 5 days to sort something now. A bit if a rest for the players but also they need to work on D and get a new plan for the pp because it’s rubbish.
