Confusion Reigns (and Good News)

The folk at Clan Towers must have read my last post lol.
Suddenly two bits of news are issued in the same day! Sadly it felt like we had been given the "here's the bad news but never fear some good news to stop you moaning" strategy.
The Davis Cup tournament has taken precedence over the opening fixtures of the Braehead in early September. So the first home game is now on September 24th v Dundee Stars. For me, this is simply a frustration, for others it's a complete and utter mess. Why? Because they work shifts, have taken the time to rearrange same in plenty of time and now their plans are very much awry. Not good PR Braehead Clan!
The confusion mentioned in the header surrounds the wording on the website regards the changes and whether the early September away games are still on. My own opinion is that the away game with Stars on September 11th should not be affected. After all, why should it? We'll see when we eventually get clarification from the club.
The Good News, and it Is Good News, is that the club have signed a five year contract with the Braehead Arena management! It shows some forward thinking and confidence in the future of the club and we should all be embracing this. The future is bright, the future is Purple!
Still no news of a new coach although the rumour is that Stingrays D man Drew Bannister has declined the coach position and Danny Stewart and Rhett Gordon are back as the front runners.
