GAME THREAD: Blaze v Steelers: Sun 21st Dec. 7.30pm

Cramped, dark and intimidating, I've never liked the car park at the Sky Dome even if inside it they can be kind and generous handing out league points to visiting teams.

McAdam gets the start. No IBN

I just hope we have enough left for tonight the team looked shattered last night

It's going to be a tough one tonight, but we can't afford to drop points if we want to keep within striking distance of the Panthers.

It was undoubtedly a draining game last night, but it's not as though we're a team down to the bare bones.

I'd like to think we have enough quality in our squad to get the job done.

I did wonder if we might add someone from the Dogs, but clearly that's not a consideration at this time.

Regards

Having not watched the Cardiff game last night, it sounds like we used up plenty of energy.

If you want to win a championship, this game is one that needs to be won, but is far easier to lose when there’s not much left in the tank.

I think it’s a good decision giving Greenfield the night off, as we’re going to need him over the Christmas games that is for sure.

Let’s hope Coventry’s generosity of 2 points to the Steelers continue at the Sky Dome. It is Christmas after all

4-2 Steelers.

Hopefully another 2 points,,, coventry also played away last night and had to do o/t so all even on that side of things,,,,

Steelers having the better of it but it’s a bit of a nervous thing watching McAdam. Things bouncing all over the place, but we’ve covered it

If it wasn’t before, our game is an even more must win now.

Not sure I would have predicted Nottingham to be hammered at home by Guildford. They took Grande out early as well. He’s certainly no where near the goalie of last season.
