Match Night Live

Hey hey, Chris with you tonight, don't forget to give me an email matchnightlive@the-inferno.co.uk

Seems the Devils may have been delayed getting to Hull, they've only just entered the changing rooms whereas Hull are out on the ice...

I should be out watching the rugby as I expect the majority of people are doing, but i'm stuck inside recovering from some highly disagreeable food...

And out come the Devils for warmup, usual suspects missing. No sign of the ENL players yet...

Texter at the game reports only 11 players including 2 netminders have appeared for the Devils...

Now he says 14, seems we're all over the place :)

Anymore predictions out there? Keith from Aberystwyth says 1-3 Devils...

Devils have refused to leave the ice at the end of the warmup, so the rink have turned the lights off...

Silverthorn made sure he was the last player to leave the ice :D

A grand total of 4 Devils fans have made the journey to Hull.

Zamboni makes an appearence, only players missing are injuries and the ENL players.

Jacks going for a 3-5 win to the Devils, not long to go till our victory :)

Hull rink is practically empty according to texters, Devils risk outnumbering Hull fans

Officials on the ice, not sure who they are though...

Referee is #2, anyone got a list of refs numbers to hand and can email me who it is? matchnightlive@the-inferno.co.uk
