Giants Vs Devils - League - 4th Feb 24 - FO 16:00

[E.D.S.]

Dramatics as usual, what’s with screening there was no blood etc.

Just no need. Simply scaremongering, everyone assumed it was life threatening and unnecessarily started panicking. Get a grip Giants. Never been needed in hockey before and isn’t needed now. Poor show.

 

[E.D.S.]

That was a character win tonight. Keefe sent them out with a mission tonight. Fired up and desperate to over turn the night before. We could have easily buckled and that would have been understandable but we rolled with the punches and stuck to the plan. As much as I bemoan PR when we don’t come out firing after a period break or we concede straight after a goal but this weekend was a coaches weekend. Well drilled and perfectly honed for tonight’s onslaught. Credit to PR. Well done mate.

Spot on our Coach got the very best out of this team this weekend, and it was a real sight for sore eyes. Two really great games that worked to perfection, and showed us what a great coach we have. This weekend was certainly Happy Hockey Days.

Scaremongering or an attempt to influence the refs?

 

[E.D.S.]

Finally… thank you to a bloke called Geraint. Never met him before but he organised most peoples tickets for this weekend. Must have dealt with hundreds of requests to sit in certain spots or near people. Would drive me mad but a polite fella made it effortless for everyone else. Top man. Thank you.

Didn’t need to influence the refs. They had £10 on Belfast all weekend.
Try as they might they still couldn’t hand them the win.

We have not been to Belfast since before lock down but we will echo this
Also he does similar work for overseas trips
He does not get the public recognition he deserves

@Ger-Devils getting some well deserved praise here.

You did an amazing job of organising once again mate, thank you for all you do.

 

[Ger-Devils]

Appreciate the comments but I’m just happy to help fans out, save on stress and save some money for them on the way.

 

[Wannabe2]

Geraint is a top man, and is always happy to help fans, he has been a huge Devils fan for many many years and hails from Aberdare, but lives now in Lurgan Northern Ireland. One of life’s good guys.

 

[Earnie]

How many of our fans went over?

 

[Ger-Devils]

How many of our fans went over?

There was 450 or so I’d say in total

 

[E.D.S.]

I wonder how many made it back!!

 

[Pondlife]

I have to say that the double header weekend is definitely one of my season's highlights. Every year we meet new people over there and have a great time in awesome company.

 

[Squirrelseverywhere]

Best weekend ever! Already planning next year's

 

[Earnie]

Was there any particular incident where Waller got injured?

 

[BostonBart22]

DOPS, no statement on barrow 5 plus major yet.. mmmmmm, plus the headbutting incident by panthers player on a blaze player.

Well the Barrow one is marginal for DOPS but the Panthers one is definitely a ban so we have to assume that we are not out of the woods yet .....

 

[Finny]

There was also a really bad check to the head by a Sheffield player on Saturday.

 

[BostonBart22]

Barrow must be good to go, dops would've looked at it Monday onwards, normally bans announced Wednesdays usually.
