    Sharks in the Water

    "Baby, there's a shark in the water
    There's something underneath my bed"...
    V.V Brown: "Shark In the Water"

    Interestingly, the rumours floating round about Belfast's potential financial problems, as mentioned in yesterday's post, have taken on a life of their own. After yesterday's rumours of "cost-cutting" appeared to be substantiated by those far closer to the Giants on this Kingdom Of the Giants thread (you need to be registered to view, but the basic gist of it is that several posters have come out appearing to confirm that cuts have been made within the Giants office recently), the Breakaway has now heard whispers from several areas that one organisation within British hockey has not received money it was promised by the Giants last season, despite waiting for several months.

    Now, I should point out that, being a mere fan, with no connection to the Giants organisation, and thus no access to either the Giants' accounts or the league's dealings, I'm not sure of the veracity of this, and am presenting it as nothing more than a rumour....however, once again this information has come from a reliable source within the parties concerned.

    Make of it what you will...
