GAME THREAD: Flyers v Steelers: League: Sun 2nd Nov

Jasper MoM. Probably deserved for his goal

Let’s be honest we’re lucky still to have a 10 team league and I don’t want Fife to be whipping boys.

We disrespect them if we treat it like that and I was beginning to think we had. If we thought that then we’d get what we deserve and I thought it was beginning to look like that. Nevertheless a win is a win.

Was thinking maybe this season was a season too far for fife, just there to make numbers up and people would be happy with that, but that really is no good for them or the league. But if they can push steelers that hard then maybe there is a place in league for them but that is only one game. Hopefully they can get some results together and not just be there for sentimental reasons as it is a business after all

It's good that we've gone top of the league, but a little disappointing we made such hard work of a struggling Fife team.

With Glasgow beating Dundee tonight, I suspect we're also now top seeds in the Challenge Cup.

Plenty to feel good about tonight.

Regards

Doom

Were we anywhere near our best ?, nope. Were we good enough to win despite that ?, yep.

That's how you win a championship, it's not the pretty wins when everything is going well, it's the rescued point against a bottom of the league club when you stink out the place. One or two folk on social media need to remember that.

This. Last year we lose that game in OT/PS. Look back at last year and when we won, it was usually comfortable, but we didn't eek out those close games.

Not at our best but gotta take the win.

I think that's spot on.

I agree that with some of the teams of the past we may have lost this one. Doesn't matter how, it's the win that's counts and perhaps consider ourselves lucky.

I also hope we've learned a lesson or two IF we've taken them for granted.

Honestly think it was a combination of that, first time travelling Sheffield to Fife for some, hard game night before, Fife being up for it, and just a few bounces (so many passes that just caught a bobble off a stick/skate). Owen also had a great game.
