Directors in the Raiders headquarters today negotiated a change in name of the franchise.

Its believed the top dogs are seriously considering changing the name of the club to better reflect their identity and heritage, after all, the team originate from the Emerald Isle, and "Zephyr Raiders" doesn't exactly reflect this.

Alot of the Raiders fans are happy that a new name will coincide more with their country of origin, but a small band of supporters got wind of the ongoing talks and staged a vocal protest outside the Zephyr Arena.
5 arrests were made after a small group stormed the front entrance to the arena, but thankfully, no-one was hurt.

Its also believed, having recently sported new kit a few games from the end of last season, that a new deal is being put in place for another new kit, in case the name change goes ahead.

In other news, Raiders head coach, Emerald, is believed to have verbally taken up an offer to become Irelands National Team Captain. This will allow Ireland to create their own leagues and furthermore, their own National Team.
However, its likely that the Irish teams will have to compete in the World Leagues until at the very least, next season.

And in the recent draft of youngsters aiming to make the grade with the Raiders, Dylan Munroe was hand picked by Emerald.
"This kid has a lot of potential and showed some silky moves out there on the ice. His defensive qualities and toughness for someone so young is exemplary."
The attributes seem to back up Emeralds words, as an OR of 247 shows. Whether or not Munroe makes any competitive appearances for the Raiders in the new season is a different matter altogether.
