Any Aces fans intending attending this weekend (assuming the place does open as planned).

Me not, just wondering.

Turn down for bank loan so I will not be able to afford tickets for opening game at the new Alti Ice Rink.

So another ex Alti fan unable to go lol

I,m going Saturday.
Just like old times "bl**dy freezing"

I should be there on Sunday.

Saturday now appears to be sold out but there does seem to be a risk that the rink might not be ready ....

I walked passed it today and I'll eat my hat if that rink hosts a game on saturday

Tambo reporting from outside the Dome
" The nets are now up at on end. 1/3rd of the seats are in on the Oakfield Rd side and the Station side is complete.
There are 20-30 people working and clearing up is in progress.
3/4 of the front wall is now up.
80% of the plexi is in place.
The players benches are in and barriers are now up at the front.
We nearly have a complete front entrance.
The ice now looks like ice!
Ooh! They are flooding again.
Must be slippy the builders who's flooding it has just slipped and gone a**e over tip!
It's looking good!"

Dan's hat is safe. Saturday game postponed. Opener now going to be on Sunday (they say hopefully)
