    Play-off format

    Anyone have any info / thoughts on how it will work this season? It's a long way off, and things will change, but on a pure points / game basis Coventry would currently win the Patton conference, but be 10th place in league, while Guildford and Manchester would be 2nd and 4th in that...

    From the department of dubious (and optimistic) statistics

    We all know it's going to be tough to win the League - we're now deep into "if you want to go there, you don't want want to start from here" territory So we need to win all our outstanding games (hot news from the department of stating the b***ding obvious) BUT Sheffield have 2 more games...

    ON ice performance vs. OFF ice politics

    When I read a game review, whether we've won or lost, I'm interested in people's views on Was the game entertaining? Who played well? Who didn't perform? Where have we improved? What should we be doing better? I'm not particularly interested in all those "my Dad's bigger than your Dad"...

    4 pairs of home and away games, 1 vs. 8, 2 vs. 7 etc. or 2 groups of 4, 1,3,5,7 and 2,4,6,8 owners get more revenue, we get more games which would you prefer, and why?
