I'm not sure letting a load of people in for free would be considered to be 'paying off'. Out of interest, do we know to what extent Lions are giving away free tickets these days? Apart from the £1 tickets at Wembley a few weeks back I'm not aware of any large-scale giveaways recently, but I'm probably not in right circles to be seeing them. They haven’t Like you said they gave tickets away because of the shambles of the Wembley game, other than that they’re doing the cheap top tier tickets, and then selling the rest at a sensible, sustainable price |

Well don't know what to say really.
Except if the current regime keeps up perhaps we could apply to win the guiness World record for the most new players in a season.
Does anyone even know where Duke Sheton is?

Good end to the 3rd for Eagles, given themselves a small chance of a win
Nix been pretty stupid on every possession down the stretch though

Incredible. Were +15 with Beefy French on the court and -20 with Defoe and -21 with Everett! And French hasn't even scored |

Got to give a bit of credit to Cohn for showing some bottle at least

Yep Cohn deserves a bit of credit, not sure any many others really do I don't think it's lack of effort They want to do well and compete They just aren't good enough (They've just lost to Cheshire at home with Cheshire missing their best player) And Cheshire giving loads of turnovers we well Who can they beat? |

Eagles beaten pretty badly because the Phoenix team turned the ball over way too much in the second half. Evans / Anderson / Teague all stepped up.

Best I've seen Cohn. Anderson D on Hamlet superb, took his game away. But two teams who aren't great. The turnovers were ridiculous.

Just got back from the game and have mixed feelings.
That first quarter is the worst I've seen ever seen an Eagles team play. Usually you see a team who've just been blown out come out the next game all guns blazing, especially at home. Eagles did exactly the opposite of that and left Cheshire for a layup line and I counted at least 7 open threes. Just absolutely woeful. I was just sat there in disbelief.
Second quarter was only slightly better (maybe aided by Cheshire taking their foot off the gas) and I was surprised to see us only 13 points down. Cheshire should've put the game to bed really before half time, as the Eagles weren't that much better in the second quarter.
I thought they might have come out after half time all guns blazing, but they did exactly the opposite of that as they let Cheshire breeze back up to a 20 point lead. Steutel called a time a time out and absolutely lit the team up for the entire time out. No instructions, just rage. He just eviscerated them, it was kinda impressive how mad he was to be fair! It seemed to work as it lit a fire under some of the players and Eagles made a bit of a comeback. In the end they left themselves with too much to do, but at least some of the players showed a bit of bottle. Not sure if it was audible on the Sky coverage, as I know the commentators are just to the left of the Eagles bench. It really was the biggest telling off I've seen a team get, and I've seen plenty from Fab and Rob P!
So, I'm somehow sitting down tonight slightly encouraged by what I saw in the final quarter and a half. I'm hoping it's a bit of a 'shit or get off the pot' moment for some of our players and they begin to see who is going to be useful going forward. There are a couple who just don't look up for it at all.
Because I'm a glutton for punishment I'm gonna watch the game back on television before I go to bed, to see how accurate my analysis is!
Oh and finally, well done Phoenix. A win on the road without your best player is a great result. Also lovely to see some Phoenix fans make the journey up. They're always very nice and polite, thanks for making the journey up! I always enjoy games with away fans that bit more.
