Well Fox and Smith need to alter how we play because that was garbage. Where is the physicality Tremblay exempt as he was the only one hitting and Cormier the only other player trying for us. The defence is a joke but the forwards aren't much better. Knew I should have saved the £16, the only positive was Belfast were good to watch
Sorry about that. Just sat on my train catching up with result and posts.

I honestly thought we’d have given it a good go. But 7-1 feels embarrassing.
Boys against men tonight unfortunately
Shame.

If it makes you feel any better, if I’d not been at the dogs, I would have also purchased the stream. Fortunately for me, it’s £16 saved.

My take on the booing last night from our own fans:

I honestly dont boo very often, I have before though on rare occasions, but i 100% believe people have the right to if they wish.. some of those booing will have been to all 3 Scottish games and both Belfast games and spent considerable amount of time and money doing so. I feel if your gut reaction to what you are seeing is to boo, then maybe just maybe its your natural reaction to such a bad feeling, the exact opposite to cheering!
Clapping your team of the ice when they stink just shelters them from reality... they already know how much they are supported by looking up and seeing such fabulous numbers of away fans...

I hope the booing hit some of them so hard they take a long look in the mirror...

Coach’s feedback.

I think the interview reflected well on Aaron tbh, he was pretty straight talking - stating it was “embarrassing to be a part of”.

From his demeanour I expect this was heavily imparted on the players in the dressing room afterwards.
