The Amazons - 21st Century Fiction.
Brilliant album with no single weak track! Was not expecting to find my favourite album of 2025 here but I have!
Wouldn't had considered myself to particularly be a fan before, but that has changed!

Good to see a hockey date in my diary again.
30th August #GuildfordFlames face off against #GothiquesdAmien!
The less said about the inevitable #MapleLeafs Stanley Cup Playoffs exit the better. Completely expected!
The new season will be good!

0-0 end 1st
Strong start but no goals for #GuildfordFlames.
Brown hit inside post, Catenacci, Welychka, Tait and Glover all having good chances.
Tedesco probably the pick of players in P1.
#NottinghamPanthers looking OK but would be the happier of the two to go in level.

1-1 end 1st
Flames giving up some good chances to Dundee, McAdam making a huge stop on one breakaway.
Catenacci gets one back late on shorthanded.
Some roughing end of period, Jacome double minor and Kelly, but Hoff and one other involved too

#GuildfordFlames v #BelfastGiants
0-1 end 1st
Flames played a decent period, more of the play and overall chances. But concede on first real Giants attempt.
There's hope if they keep playing well that the single goal defecit can be turned to a lead!
Think Kupsky injured

#GuildfordFlames vs #FifeFlyers tonight
Could be the last time for a bit with Flyers ownership not decided, hopefully not.
It should be a win for Flames against the bottom placed team.
McAdam and Owen start in net. Owen for me still the main man if Flyers cause an upset

#GuildfordFlames v #ManchesterStorm
Hoffman debuts, McAdam starts in net. Manchester coming in off an impressive win over league leaders Belfast. Flames on 3 game win streak.
Retro jerseys on tonight and expecting them to look brilliant, hoping result to better them!

#GuildfordFlames v #SheffieldSteelers.
No Alvaro for Flames, :-(
McAdam starting tonight, played in last 2 wins, looking for a 3rd.
Glover takes Alvaro's spot, think I'd have put Talbot there.
Sheffield start Greenfield, main puzzle Flames need to solve to get the win!

#GuildfordFlames vs #SheffieldSteelers this evening.
Flames going back again on player numbers :-(
Still no Coughler or Jones.
Locke, Welychka or Hook.
Kupsky starts, Greenfield starts (always hard to beat).
Last time was 6-2 and probably best game this season at Spectrum
#FlamesLive #GUIvSHE #EIHL
February 15, 2025 at 5:53 PM
Ready for #GuildfordFlames vs #CardiffDevils
Looks like it's no Crocock tonight (and still no Coughler).
But otherwise it's the most players in ages and essentially a full line-up.
Both Tedesco and Catenacci back from playing for Italy.
Chance for Flames with Cardiff form

So happy for a Sam Talbot goal!
But not liking No Alvaro one bit! In fact I hate having no Alvaro!

Why's Amanda Holden on BBC? Get her back onto ITV or even better just not on TV!

#GuildfordFlames vs #SheffieldSteelers
Another short line up from Flames, never known a season so injury hit!
2.5D and 3F lines, suppose we should be happy we've been able to find mid-season additions to make that!
Sheffield able to have 3D and 4F lines, and with Greenfield in net... One winner?!
January 26, 2025 at 5:06 PM
4-0 end 1st
Big lead for #GuildfordFlames in one sided first 20.
Strang in particular standing out and causing menace to Stars who yank Sabol for Fiske.
Jacome proving tricky for their defence too as has Alvaro and Catenacci.
Shearer not had to do lots yet on debut.
#FlamesLive #GUIvDUN #EIHL
January 18, 2025 at 6:42 PM
#GuildfordFlames approaching something like a full line up. 5D, 12F...with the amount sat in the treatment room still that's a lot of players!
Facing #DundeeStars and Ben O'Connor (still think we miss that attack-mindedness from defence).
James Shearer making Flames debut
#FlamesLive #EIHL #GUIvDUN
January 18, 2025 at 6:00 PM
7-1 final
Ethan Strang adding the 7th.
Flyers goal ruled out (coaches challenge Guildford), goalie interference.
There was a lot of space in the Flyers zone to get more.

6-1 end 2nd
Waller putting home a big rebound, Hook's shot finding a path through to net top of left face-off circle and Catenacci finding loose-ish pick close in on net.
No way back for Fife and 20mins remain.
