A great weekend but nothing less than expected from my point of view and it's a good job we did as Guildford did the same.

We're still 5 points behind them even IF we win our games in hand, so we needed a perfect weekend.

I'm too miserable to get excited about beating below average sides, sorry.

I do think Belfast are now out of the title race though. 15 points behind is a big ask.

Agree with all points there, something is apparently wrong in Belfast, I keep picking up odd comments here and there but as I'm not really into following other teams fans social media I'm not sure what it is.

Same here Mark, this forum is about as social as I get :D

I know they’ve have/had a few injuries to be fair and were missing 4 or 5 imports, at one point which we know very much what that is like. I don’t think Belfast are as good a team this year though.

I would never have thought Guildford would be showing us the way as we come to the half way point. We have to make sure we put the below average teams away as we’ve done this weekend as that’s where it could be won or lost this year for me.

It's going to take something special to overhaul Guildford for the title this year, I've watched them a coupla times this season & they've impressed me, certain players will come to the EIHL & be that player to turn your fortunes around, puts up the points etc, Guildford have that man in Daniel Tedesco, who has been a quality signing for them.

I'd take him in Orange in a heartbeat

Flames have dropped 5 points in 23 league games all season. They lost in overtime in Nottingham only other points lost - Steelers 2 wins.

They are 100% against all other teams in the league. Some record.
