So, not even at the end of May, and Tony Hand has already signed (and announced) his entire Brit contingent for the inaugural EPL campaign here in Mancland.
And overall I'm impressed. At the official announcement meeting for the switch to EPL hockey Tony promised a young, hungry squad of Brits, and he has most certainly delivered. he has signed guys with EIHL experience, guys who are straight out of ENL/SNL/Juniors, and kept himself in there to provide a core of unmatched experience.
If the import signings match up to the Brits in terms of quality, and given Tonys track record I see no reason to doubt that they will be, we could, nay should be looking at some very exciting times ahead for the club.
And it also looks like Bracknell and Romford will both be icing EPL sides too. Sadly, no IOW (a road trip I know many were looking forward to), and Telford still look doubtful, but the EPL is gearing up to be damn good.
Bring on September.
