Ok, I know I am on one - blame being over tired.
Why the whole sales destruction of the fixtures list? We have only lost one team. That is a limited pot of fixtures. Yes, this has some impact - but not a 100% re-write. You go through the fixture list and highlight the Hull ones...then see where you can move your pegs. Perhaps I am slow, but I would love to have been at that meeting...
I am just hoping that Belfast games wont move, as most teams will have booked a fair amount of travel to Belfast already. If the fixture on the 9th of October has moved, I will be invoicing the league.
I suggest anyone who has lost out due to these changes sends an itemised invoice to the Elite League. It may not get too far, but if we spank them for being incompetent enough they may actually start behaving like a professional organisation (I know, I know - I am really dreaming now).
Mind you, what can we expect. The fixtures are usually put together badly.
