Incredible game to go out on & the post game send off was very special, so thankful for the opportunity Iโve had to call the game that I love for all these years. Thank you for all the lovely messages, Iโll get back to you, but now itโs ๐บ time. Much love & happy new year!

Throughout this terrible tragedy, the Nottingham Panthers, EIHL and all member clubs have handled the moment with the utmost professionalism, careful thought & class, it cannot be faulted, only applauded.
Hearing crazy stuff from officials in the EIHL from this past weekend. Fans; you pay your money, have an opinion, shout about it at the game, discuss it online, or in the bar after, but NEVER slide into the refโs DMs & NEVER bring an officialsโ family into it. Have some respect!
Looking forward to a busy weekend filming some hockey matches. Got my camera packed. Hopefully I stay out of the way of those agressive skaters... ๐ฅ๐คฆ๐ปโโ๏ธ
The absolute state of social media, the tabloid press and social commentators. You build them up, you knock them down, you pile in on them, then you pay tributes to them. Absolute vultures.
Absolutely heartbreaking ๐ my thoughts with Adamโs family, friends, teammates, and everyone who was there, both on & off the ice last night. Support & love to you all.
The Nottingham Panthers are truly devastated to announce that Adam Johnson has tragically passed away following a freak accident at the game in Sheffield last night.
Also, if you โlikedโ my last tweet, but up until a few weeks ago spent your weekend tweeting me about what a prick I was, kindly go stick said โlikeโ up your ass ๐๐ผ
If you didnโt understand the instructions, youโre an idiot.
If you still donโt understand, youโre a total moron.
If you choose not to comply, youโre utterly selfish.
If you need an instructional video to understand, I struggle to understand how you navigate life.

I heard the guys made the (correct) call in Belfast tonight from a laptop ALREADY IN THE PENALTY BENCH. Amateur. Always have a secondary MacBook ready to be dramatically brought down from the booth, everyone knows that. Total boss move. ๐ป

This is incredible on every level. From the great strength and hold up play by Jono, to the finish by Benny, and all called with perfect pure emotion from Murph. Love everything about it! ๐

Some (quite a lot) of the replies to this beggar belief. If your reply is โyeah but the officiating is rubbishโ you are a moron & missing the point. The quality of officiating, or a player, or a coach, is a separate issue to the one of human-beings being subjected to abuse.

stand together to make it clear any abuse of officials, players and staff will not be tolerated.
In recent months, there have been cases of abuse at all levels of the game and this is totally unacceptable.
Great start to the 2018/19 Referee Conference with over 230

Iโd also like to table a motion of no confidence in the most weak, impotent, pathetic opposition in memory. The government and the opposition should both hang their heads in shame at this utter shambles.

Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn has tabled a motion of no confidence in the Government following its defeat in the House of Commons over Theresa May's Brexit deal which will be debated in the Commons tomorrow

Looks like heโll fit right in.

Sad to hear of Garyโs passing. Heโd sometimes wait post game to blast off at the refsโฆ But heโd always be there to tell a funny anecdote before a game, help organise tickets, or wish a safe journey home. He cared about Panthers, hockey & hockey people. Thoughts with his family.
The Nottingham Panthers are today saddened to hear of the passing of Gary Moran.
After a short battle with illness Gary passed away early this morning & the thoughts of everyone at the organisation are with his family & friends at this incredibly tough time.
