Oh dear.

After a decent first period where we stepped the physical play up and looked really good we soon went back to the plain vanilla hockey and deserved to lose.

Coventry aren’t that good sorry. Looks like they’ll be our playoffs opponents at this rate. Cause the league now has certainly gone.

Guess the whole squad must have flu?

Fox out for me.

Yes Jay the only people worse than steelers tonight were the officials. A lot of inexplicable decisions

Apart from the high stick miss on Ciampini I thought the officials were fine.

Sorry but that was another shocking game.
That's it for this season I don't think we will win anything.
Think it's time to say bye to Mr Fox

We left with 10 minutes to go to catch the tram.

I said to my mate that this feels like the end. I've seen it before with coaches, they've run out of ideas and have no idea how to change things around. Tonight started well, but ended shambolic.

We've had good financial backing from the owner and been very lucky with injuries, we shouldn't be looking such a shambolic rabble.

I guess the obvious question is who do you replace Fox with?

In our league I'd only go with Keefe, but I couldn't see him leaving Belfast.

We need a Keefe like coach.
Fox has been the same each year with the same failings. Will Tony give him one more year-if so I think he needs to really decimate our playing staff.
Does Pete Russell have a job??

I just hope it doesn't drag out into one season too far like it has done previously, that just caused bitterness and ill feeling that still hasn't healed for some. If it's to be done then best done quickly.

Decent opening 20
Awful middle 20
Shambolic final 20

Should have hung on for O/T but threw it away in garbage time.

This club has no identity whatsoever.
