Definately the PERFECT final, the 2 most entertaining teams in the league with a superb rivalry should make for a great atmosphere over the two legs

When will bookings for the coach be taking place? Also are we home or away first leg? Doubt anyone knows just yet.
I'm just happy that, We're All Going Cardiff, We're All Going Cardiff, La La La La, La La La La.
Craighead V Payette could finnally happen.

Craighead V Payette could finnally happen. Doubt it though! Far too big of a game(s) - maybe if were winning by a good few goals  Let's hope Jason lives up to his nickname 'Puck in net'  |

In American bimbo style...
Oh....my....God.
Whatever the result, this is going to be one immense final-I hope no-one in Cardiff or Coventry goes to bed early on the two match nights...
A better advert for British hockey would be hard to find. Get Grandstand in...

Craighead V Payette could finnally happen. I wouldnt put my money on it, he laughed at Darling in the game tonight, he knows he's here to do a job and he's already started scoring |

I aint really that bothered about seeing Craighead and Payette drop um, I am just happy that I am going to see the both of them on the same ice. Whatever happens and whoever wins the final it is going to be a victory for British Ice Hockey.

I hope the home leg is first as that would be the perfect finale to ave the deciding leg at the WNIR (Although it might put off a few JCLs)

Hey Steve can we please be appointed by our clubs to negotiate who gets the home leg when? as i would love the second leg in Cardiff, so important to haev the second leg on home ice IMO and better if you win it in your own barn aswell

At the risk of being cheeky Gazza I would say that we recall winning the 2003 one in our own place and would like to do it away this time ;D
Only joking,
My main reason is that our road form is miles better than our home form and so if we were to play away second I would feel much more confident of success even if we have a deficit to make up. Plus the coach journey back would be fantastic. It's not the same as popping round the corner to the Orange House (and then waiting to be served for ages)
Anyway may the best team win

I've heard that the first game is at Coventry.
Don't know the date though.
Here's a thought, how about the final at Nottingham, the place is certainly big enough to ensure that everyone gets a ticket.

I think a home and away final is better than a one off at a neutral venue as that is what makes the play offs so special.
