Firstly, I always think it's better if you have an accusation about someone to make it outright.
secondly, how do you have your view Lord is better in one role than another given we have just gone on our best run with him on the ice?
Also I don't get how Bordy can be blamed for the noble incident, it's one of those that happens in the moment. Unless we've signed bordy for his Clairvoyant skills he would never have been in a position to take that fight. Also noble and Lord are evenly matched, it's not like Lord was troubled by the fight or set upon by anyone.
I prefer Lord as coach than as a player. I have absolutely nothing to base that on other than it's my preference. I don't like the player coach role I never have. He does a fantastic job on the ice and demonstrates incredible commitment (and ability) but I prefer a bench coach.

Jamie Elson made the coaching play that won us the game. Called timeout at exactly the right time, and set the team up in a clear tactical formation with 3 players in a triangle in front of the net with 2 on the flanks and 1 deep on the blue line. They were blocking longer range shots all night so this was spot on.
Why are we criticising him?

As for lordo - it is a dilemma, but most of the time I feel we are very lucky to have a player coach of his type. As a player he has been absolutely instrumental in our last 4 wins. He has led by example, bringing the high tempo ('the jump' as he calls it) and physicality. This is clearly what he has been coaching, but the benefit is that he has led by example in delivering it.
Had he been on the bench, he would have needed someone else to deliver this. Who? Who else have we got that can score 5 in 4, play with perhaps the highest energy and physically on the ice, and fight?!
So when we have the players all back fit I hope every one of them is told they need to bring their A game, high energy and physicality night in night out - or they will be replaced by a very capable lord.
How great is it to have a coach that has set a standard for the whole team?! Not just words, he has delivered a clear example of exactly the way he wants the team to play. Genius! A good situation to be in as a club IMO.

Everybody hates Noble, but he plays the classic pest/agitator role perfectly! He really irritates opposition and makes some players think twice about planting themselves in front of Stewart's net. If Noble is there, it's likely you're gonna take a few Xchecks and god knows what else! I noticed Ulmer particularly avoiding Noble in front of the net in the 3rd period on Sunday.
I do often wonder if Noble gets tired of losing every fight though... I also don't care if he's effective at what he does, I still hate him. Noble and Stewart are the 2 most annoying players in the league.

Surely that's correct since Belfast and Coventry are both in the Erhardt conference.
They've played Gardiner conference teams in challenge cup games which don't show up in the league table but haven't played any Gardiner conference teams in league games so their league games are equal to their Erhardt Conference games.

Looks like Lord is in the clear, no further calls for reviews according to DOPS;

It was about time someone stuck a few jabs on Noble, a prized prat who usually targets the skilled players. He wound Lord up no end and got his comeuppance.
Brilliant victory by the way, I was jumping around my living room when we scored our last two. Quality!
PS. On a separate note, does anyone know where to find this league table, looks like some kind of App. The main Elite League site is pretty poor, especially on mobile, but his looks a lot better.

The company behind the data published by EIHL has quite a good website and not just for EIHL
