Cardiff Devils v Belfast Giants - Sun 6pm - Chat/Updates

[Chris]

Hey hey,

We're hoping to run Match Night Live! for this game from the usual location of http://www.the-inferno.co.uk/mnl

Devils are likely to be missing Mark Smith through injury, and the Giants are down 2 or 3 players through injury.

Hopefully we can continue our recent form and pick up another win

Chris.

A nice win for the Devils tomorrow will cheer me up after my trip to the council ground today!

 

[andydevils]

do you want me to send texts to mnl. Is oj doing it tonight if so you can pm me.

 

[Wannabe2]

Chris who are Giants missing please

 

[Gazza272]

Not Chris obviously :lol:


But as far as i am aware Faubert is definatly out. Awada is out but has been replaced by Szwecz (sp?) Thornton i believe is back playing.


Think Nathan Craze played last night so murphy might be struggling also.

Be a big loss for The Giants if he is out.


Either way wiht Belfast playing last night and them being down as many players as us, there shouldnt be any excuses for us this evening.

 

[Dai Vader]

heard that tonights game has been delayed and face off is 7.30 pm due to late inbound Belfast flight into Bristol

 

[Tredevil]

I heard that as well......dont think that flight took off til quarter to five.........

 

[Finny]

Apparently earliest possible face off at the moment is 7pm. Though that isn't official and liable to change.

 

[Chris]

Well, we're live with MNL, but seems Belfast only recently landed in Bristol so game is still delayed for an hour or so...

Chris.

 

[Chris]

For the visitors who are all lurking

Brent Pope just announced that they're hoping for the Giants to arrive in approximately 15minutes, so I guess we're looking at a 7:00-7:30pm face off.

Reminds me of the Cup game against Durham many years ago. They were delayed due to bad weather and a 6.30 face off turned into a 10.30 face off.

Everyone spent the intervening time in the old WNIR bar. The atmosphere wants the game finally faced off was increasingly surreal as it became clear that the vast majority of the crowd were rather the worse for wear!

 

[Chris]

Face off now announced to be at 8:05pm

Chris.

what are the league going to do about this farce tonight!! really hope voth thumps 7 shades of crap out of mcsorrow(i think he really is a sad git who has to justify his place on the roster by continually bragging how tough he is but cant actually play the game that well and exists by mainly fighting) :x :evil:

Tonight was the worse playing I have seen from the Devils in a long time they were absolute rubbish, (we left at the end of the second it was so painful to watch) it was the Giants that were delayed and they played last night and we didn't, what on earth is wrong with the Devils tonight? they couldn't string a pass together, their PP was diabolical (sp) terrible, terrible show. :evil:

The sign of a good team though? Winning when playing badly?

I was there !!! we left rink gone midnight .... seem to recollect drink ran out/short supply and am sure wandered to Golden Cross at some point!!

Had to leave at end of second as have to be up at 5 but tend to agree they were shocking in parts - passing pants, PP pants , letting themselves be pushed around etc etc

McMorrow - what is his point , counted 5 shifts in 2 periods from him and constant goading from bench the guy is a joke !

I must agree with Mazza here. For the first time in 6 years of watching the Devils I left early this evening, after the 2nd period. Granted it was late starting, etc but such a bad performance by the team.

So we eventually went on to win the game but the team really have to take a good look at how they played this evening.
