Belfast Giants...

So i have to admit...i'm a pretty big Belfast Giants fan!! For ages i haven't been in to any sport what so ever...i used to skate(board) an awful lot but i've pretty much ruined my back in doing so and i became a bit too lazy to keep doing it...so for a few years i haven't been in to much sport at all. Last season (05/06) Lauren took me to one of the games, the game that was the debut for Theo Fleury for the Belfast Giants (i'll ramble about him in another post soon ;-) but give him a look on wikipedia if you want) and ever since i've been hooked. I've been following the league this season more than ever and i have to say...it's a great sport. Unlike football, what attracts me to this, is the lack of sectarianism...i HATE hearing about sectarianism within football!!

From now on on the blog for the last month of this season i plan to give regular updates on the team and how we're doing in the league, who we're playing etc. and i hope to do the same next season as well.

We're 3rd in the league right now after the team have unexpectidly lost interest all together recently and we've hit an all time low for our team, we won so well last year and now this year we've messed up so badly that it's unlikely we'll win the league. Coventry are first in the league, Sheffield second. Belfast are playing right as we speak so lets hope we can win tonight!! and that sheffield lose putting us back up to 2nd place...with some recent changes to the line up i know we can do it...the pressure is increased, but we can still try our best to defend the title.
