That’s my club 👏 Being told you have a blood clot in your eye causing permanent damage is devastating, confusing and isolating. I m lucky that my eye responded well to treatment but good to know if that changes the service is available.

[Alan March Sport ltd @AlanMarchSport]

A massive well done to the @BelfastGiants who have become the @officialEIHL champions!!

This season the Giants became the first @officialEIHL to use the AMS Audio Description commentary service and with some amazing feedback:

“The service makes a real difference, ‘puck’ placement is important!”

John is a season ticket holder who uses our service every game. He has been a season ticket holder for 25 years, but due to a clot 3 years ago, he now only has 15% vision

“It’s absolutely, bloody brilliant, it’s a game changer. The service this season has been superb, and the important thing for us, they don’t do any of the stats guff, they just tell me where the puck is and that’s what I need!”

He went on to discusses the services of other clubs, who use in house/webcast commentary. “Sometimes it’s a waste of time going as I have to keep looking at the screens which is counter productive!”

John would like it to be mandatory at all clubs but the lack of it at the other teams, prevents him from attending away games.

Another lovely touch was our trainer @JonoBullard was at this weekends game and caught up with all the commentators he trained in 2025. Seems he did a great job with them and the team have had an amazing first season to get on the mic 🎤

If you are interested in the number 1 service for blind and low vision fans at your venue

@AlanMarchSport @BelfastGiants @officialEIHL Fantastic service! Lost some of my vision permanently last year to a clot and while I can see the puck it is difficult to watch the game at times - particularly with the brightness of the arena lights bouncing off the ice.

The new @Apple update is absolutely awful for a visually impaired person. The last few days I ve been thinking my macular edema is back but all along it’s just this Liquid Glass over engineered BS removing my independence

[Sue Mac @Sleepysuz14]

@hockey_laura I really enjoy your commentary, very fair and unbiased

[Sue Mac @Sleepysuz14]

That would be a No! Hiding behind terms and conditions that aren’t exactly fool proof in this instance. Might need to read them more carefully @Mcr_Storm

[Sue Mac @Sleepysuz14]

@Mcr_Storm Will there be refunds available for fans who can not make the rescheduled date?

[Sue Mac @Sleepysuz14]

The joys of sport. Finally landed in Manchester! Belfast airport was crazy and Manchester not much better. No @BelfastGiants tonight, fingers crossed for @Everton tomorrow 🤞 as those world renowned philosophers Bwitched said “C’est La Vie” and “Blame It On the Weatherman”

[Sue Mac @Sleepysuz14]

@RobertM30730259 @Mcr_Storm Lots of flights delayed and cancelled here at Belfast. Issues with air traffic control meant flights for other destinations landed at Belfast leading to further delays

[Sue Mac @Sleepysuz14]

@Mcr_Storm Will there be refunds available for fans who can not make the rescheduled date?

[Elite Ice Hockey League | #EIHL @officialEIHL]

The Elite League would like to place on record our dismay and disappointment at the portrayal of our female fanbase in the recent Financial Times article.

We’re very proud to have an incredibly diverse fanbase watching our great sport and they play a vibrant part in our incredible hockey community.

Attendances across the Elite League continue to rise year on year and we are incredibly grateful for the enthusiastic and dedicated support our fans give every week across all four nations.

@pilotngb Not offended little chunky monkey over here! Now I can blame my medical conditions or use them as excuses for not exercising but the reality is I don’t walk and I love donuts and ice cream

[Sue Mac @Sleepysuz14]

@hockey_laura We have always enjoyed our visits to Fife for away games, hoping this is something that can continue for years to come.

[Frances Ryan @DrFrancesRyan]

At the heart of every attack on disability benefits is the myth disabled people “get perks”: a free car, loads of cash, a life off work. It misrepresents the reality of disability, whilst exploiting low wages and high living costs to make the public envy people in daily pain.

[Erin Ekins (she/her) @QueerlyAutistic]

The majority of non-disabled people in this country do not know the first thing about how disability or disability benefits work.

They have been fed a conveyer belt of lies, skewed truths and politically spun agendas for their entire lives.

[Sue Mac @Sleepysuz14]

First of the season for us @BelfastGiants away trip. LFG

[Laura Elliott @TinyWriterLaura]

if @UKLabour want to save money on disability benefits they could stop the DWP from re-assessing people with lifelong/genetic/degenerative conditions every 3 - 5 years & reinstate the lifetime award, instead of wasting money/bureaucracy on hounding disabled people for a pittance

[Sue Mac @Sleepysuz14]

Still no response to the DM sent. This is of no surprise by a company whose employees ignore passengers with special assistance

[easyJet @easyJet]

@Sleepysuz14 Hi Sue, thank you for reaching out to us. Can you please DM us your booking reference, email address and the bookers full name. Thanks, Lulama. 🌹

[Sue Mac @Sleepysuz14]

@easyJet DM sent although I hold out no hope since it takes your company days to respond to emails.

[Sue Mac @Sleepysuz14]

@easyJet still waiting on a response from your team 7 days later (despite telling me it would be 48 hours) regarding a special assistance passenger your staff left stranded at the airport with no support for the SECOND time. Your disability policy is worthless

[Sue Mac @Sleepysuz14]

@catemeehan If your plane was supposed to be the 1905 Liverpool to Belfast it hasnt left yet and is scheduled to leave at 2250
