Match Reports are brought to you in association with A2B Airport Transfers After the agony came the ecstasy as Smith Recycling Milton Keynes Lightning celebrated a hard won 4-3 win over Raiders at Romford’s Sapphire Leisure Centre on Sunday. They did it despite being desperately short benched – icing just eight recognised forwards as James Griffin joined the list of the injured which numbered Russ Cowley, Grant McPherson and Jordan Lawday plus the suspended Harry Ferguson. Milton Keynes Thunder’s Logan Prince was also given a start. The morale boosting victory was all the more sweet as it came [...]

A2B Airport Transfers Match Report: Peterborough 4 – 0 MKL
Match Reports are brought to you in association with A2B Airport Transfers Old rivals Peterborough Phantoms claimed first bragging rights as Smith Recycling Milton Keynes Lightning went down 4-0 at Bretton on Sunday. In truth, it was a good reaction from the MKL boys after struggling at home the night before. Hard work was in evidence and some good organisation was clear particularly on the PK where Peterborough were 0 for 8. Despite the result, these are clear signs of things to be built on. Indeed it took until over half way through the game for Phantoms to [...]

Squad Development It's clear to everyone that the start [...]

Match Reports are brought to you in association with A2B Airport Transfers Telford Tigers’ experienced and well-oiled roster proved too much for Smith Recycling Milton Keynes Lightning as the hosts went down 5-2 at Planet Ice on Saturday. Lightning were still missing players – including captain Russ Cowley – which meant coach Lewis Clifford had to reshuffle the lines again with Brodie Jesson accompanying Tomas Kana and Cale Tanaka on the first line. Most of the Telford squad have been together for many years and while Lightning held them at bay in the first period the visitors’ cohesion [...]
