So, tonights win in Slough makes it 5 on the bounce for the Phoenix.
Which is bloody good news. For one thing, it means that the players are growing in confidence, something I believe was a major factor in our results during Oct/Nov/most of Dec. And it also sets us up nicely for a tilt at the play-offs, coming into form during the second half of the season. And given that we are on track to take 400+ Manc fans to Coventry again this April, that can only be a good thing.
As usual, the EIHA have been on the ball. After shifting around 450 tickets for last years play-offs, we have been initially allocated 322 tickets. 130 less than we sold last season, and will probably sell this year, too. Makes you wonder just how these guys manage to administrate the sport in any manner even approaching acceptable, if they can't sort out sensible seating allocations for their 'big weekend out'.
Anyways, I digress (as usual). The boys are hitting some form, I've finally ordered a jersey for this season (thank fuck for Xmas money), and my play off tix and hotel are booked. Good times!
And i'm going to Telford tomorrow. Sweeeeet!
