Dismal weekend for Telford Tigers
Monday 5th January 2009, 10:00AM GMT.

Telford Tigers V Wightlink Raiders.
GM Telford Tigers suffered a dismal weekend as a cancellation and a defeat ended hopes of a four-point haul.
The Tigers’ team bus broke down on the M1 on the way to Romford on Saturday forcing a postponement.
Then 24 hours later the Shropshire side’s misery was compounded with a 5-6 home defeat against struggling Wightlink Raiders, despite the visitors starting the first period with just 11 players due to travel problems of their own.
