Just the one game this weekend. Yet to take any points at all off Fife this season; they beat us 4-1 and 4-3 on their ice and shut us out at home 1-0
Really looking forward to this one - again it's refreshing to see a Gardiner team and we do seem to be on a mini roll, so, if saying that hasn't jinxed it, I'm hopeful of 2 points. Please.

After last Saturday, Flyers are the last remaining team we've failed to take a point off this season, unfortunately they aren't in a cup final on Sunday!
That 0-1 was awful! Key to getting the points is rattle them early on so they can't park the bus.

We simply have to win this game. We're in good form, we've only got the one game to focus on and the opposition have absolutely nothing to play for. It's 2 points we're desperate for and should we not get them, then we'll be right up against it.
Manchester host Edinburgh before a trip to Dundee on Sunday, who start the weekend away to Cardiff. Edinburgh host Fife on Sunday, but are pretty much out of it now. Potentially it's a defining weekend in the playoff race.

Shocking display by blaze. Lucky to get a point. Cantin is so weak and a total liability, marqhuardt looks the part but is just a fraud. I was really looking forward to tonight, says it all though when we've lost to flyers 4 out of 4 this season. Pathetic.

Thought we started brightly enough and hung on in what was a feisty and scrappy 1st. Second was just completely inept, as dire a team performance as you could imagine. Played the second half of the 3rd with real passion and more belief. Brian didn't do us any favours tonight, a couple of sharp saves but nowhere close on the 1 on 1's that we seem to like to gift away and overall just thought he looked very average really. Thought Venus put in his best offensive game of the season, really looked sharp.
Overall, a case of too little too late and I think Fife deserved the points, that point dropped could be enough to earn us 9th place overall.
Hopefully thee's just one more home game to have to endure, candidly I don't think we deserve to make the play off round, time for this season to be over.

Time to consign this season to the history books (horrible histories) awful game to watch apart from the last 10 mins.

Looked to me that Fife sat back on their 3-1, if it had been one of the top teams it would have finished 6-1.
Should we get the playoffs, finishing 7th means The Clan, 8th Cardiff or Belfast. I think with no major injuries this season we deserve 9th place, don't fancy a trip to Wales or NI.

I genuinely hope we now finish 9th. Anything more is both undeserved and will paper over the huge cracks at senior level in the club. I have said before but I am not renewing until I see huge changes to the club and, in particular, specific personnel
