If you can't get to the game make sure you join me OJ at MNL as we bring the visit of the Stingrays to Cardiff Bay

Score predictions to matchnightlive.gmail.com befor face off at 7pm

For those of you that haven't heard tonights face off has been put back to 7:30 as the Stringrays are stuck in Traffic

Will update you when I have more information

Just had a look on the M$ traffic cameras and it looks fine, I hope they are not held up further afield

No sign of the Stingrays in Cardiff Bay yet

Stringrays have just arrived at The Tent so we should get away at 7:30

Harry calls it 4-2 to the Devils

Geraint says 5-4 Devils on the day that the City went top of the league

Gazza also sees a 1 goal victory for the Devils 3-2

You now have an extra 30 minutes to get your score predictions in with fo at 7:30

I hope management realise that it shouldn't start before 7:30 after issuing the revised face off time and asking The Inferno to pass the word

They have finally realised the THE INFERNO reaches fans that other Websites don't

The Inferno the Heineken of websites

Lets have thise predictions otherwise I will have to rabbit on for the next 50 or so minutes

Its Capitals 1 Steelers 2 in Edinburgh after 1 period

Capitals had a frew pp opportunities but having trouble burying the biscuit

No sign of Stringrays taking to the ice yet

Both teams have now made an appearance

Iam am told that there was a crash on the M4 between J32 and J33

I didn't look there assuming they would have come off before J33 but I suppose to get to the Tent J33 is the best option

I am still on the lookout for texters from the game at Hull tomorrow, MNL will be covering the ghame thanks to Keith in Hull who again has volunteered to help us out

E-mails very few and far between this evening

If you can help out on Sunday e-mail me at matchnightlive@gmail.com

Warmup drawing to a close

No news on referee so far, maybe we can do without one, it would give better entertainment than a constant whistle

Warmup over

Referee Wilson not very popular with the Capitals fans

I wonder who we have tonight

Dean Smith has the whistle in Cardiff

Gareth I don't know who is scratched yet

Some of my texters have only just arrived due to traffic problems

Devils will announce a new recruit on Monday
