Phillips moves up the ladder
Giants News | Monday 13 July 2009 by Richard BlayneyWell by goodness it’s been a while!
I haven’t gone away you know, as Sinn Fein would put it, but just been busy in the off-season enjoying off-season sports. Why beat a dead dog as they say, and I wasn’t going to write each day about something just for the sake of it while the Giants were making their one-per-fortnight signings. With the British hockey season ending so early in the year (early April), the British off-season seems to last a life-time and with rosters being so small as it is, the signings come few and far between. The Giants naturally try to spread out the signings in order to keep in the media throughout the summer, it wouldn’t be a good advertising move to announce the entire line-up a week after the old season ended and then hear nothing until the end of the year.
