Lets look on the bright side.
The team 'played smart hockey by taking no
chances on defence, dumping the puck and
fighting ferociously for every inch of
space' (Today's MEN).
Given that, no reason why Storm should't win
the remaining three games - Newcastle (H and A),
Cardiff (Home on 29 Jan, could be interesting!).
So we could end up with 16 points.
Realisticly we are probably fighting with
Sheffield and Bracknell for the forth place.
Their remaining games are:
Sheffield - Cardiff (away)
Ayr (Home)
Lose both and they'll finish on 14 points.
Bracknell - Ayr (away)
Nottingham (home)
Cardiff (away)
Newcastle (home)
Win the home games only and they'll finish
on 15 points.
It's all going to be very close and I don't
know the criteria to be used if teams finish
level on points.
