I AM LIVING IN BRISBANE, AUSTRALIA. I FOLLOWED THE PANTHERS FOR THE 94/95,95/96
SEASON THEN WENT ON MY TRAVELS. MY PARENTS SEND ME THE IHNR AND MY RELO'S SEND THE
EVENING POST CLIPPINGS ON A REGULAR BASIS.
I HAVE BEEN FOLLOWING THERE GREAT EFFORT DURING LAST SEASON AND READ WITH HORROR THAT
THEY HAD THE DEBTS AND NEEDED A BUYER. IT WOULD OF BEEN A DOWN RIGHT WASTE IF THEY
WERE DISBANDED, ALL THE LOCAL TALENT WOULD EITHER HAVE TO MOVE OR FIND OTHER CLUBS.
IT WOULD SEEM STRANGE TO SEE SIMON OR ASHLEY IN ANY COLOUR THAN THE PANTHERS.
I MISS THE GAMES, THE EXCITMENTON A SATURDAY NIGHT. ICE HOCKEY IS A MINOR,MINOR SPORT
HERE BUT BEING ABLE TO PLAY HERE IS GREAT. THE SEASON IS THE SAME AS HOME BUT ON A GOOD
NIGHT WE MAY GET 5-10 SUPPORTERS!!!!!. STILL IT IS GOOD ICE AND ONE HELL OF A GAME.
I AM GLAD WE WILL SEE THE BOYS IN THIS YEARS SEASON AND I FOR ONE WILL BE RIGHT BEHIND
THEM AS THEY DEFEND THE B&H AND RUN FOR THE CHAMPS.
KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK.
CHEERS,SHAUN
P.S. I HAVE A HOME GAME SHIRT WITH '13'. THEY ALL WANT ONE AS WELL. I WILL HOPEFULLY
GET THE AWAY GAME SHIRT THIS YEAR AND FLY THE FLAG FROM AFAR.
