Wonder what kind of reception that certain Devils #12 got from the home support.

Any sickly introduction about a "welcome back to a former family member..."?
Lot of boos, not sure why exactly. Can anyone enlighten me.

Thought we had a good start. Mosey unlucky to give that pen away. They took advantage of a slow change and sent a hard shot past Rok.
An ex player playing for a close challenger, who left in a manner that has been suggested where there was plenty of bad blood between him and the coach/club too?
I suspect that's a couple of reasons.

The two sides of our game on show there. Some nice attacking play but some suspect defensive play also.

Still creating plenty which is good but our finishing is very poor as a percentage of chances/shots.

Was a flatter period all round fit both teams i thought, but we remain 1 behind with 1 to go. All to play for.

You’re probably right but can’t see it being a good reason to boo the guy. Especially as it’s very old news. I could understand it if he’d still been crowing about it.

Think our match fitness is starting to show. Cardiff are quicker and sharper at reading the game.

Officials poor as usual.

4-2 Devils, it’s a fitness thing at this point. Their much larger preparation period is showing as expected. But a positive showing none the less.

Czech Martin makes it a one goal game.

Got a feeling he could be the surprise packet in the roster.

Foxy has got to be very proud of this for sure.

I mean, I definitely would be if it was me. Never say die attitude....
