I think he'd be the first to admit he didn't have the best season last time around, which is saying something when you consider he still racked up 63 points! Another guy that puts a shift in when on the ice, exactly the kind of player Fife need.

Think he was severely hampered by injury and probably suffered from the high standards he set the year before when he was one of the top players in the league IMO.

Could they have not just announced that yesterday when it was confirmed instead of getting everyone's hopes up it was an import? Glad to have Blair back though. Good quality of back up.

I really feel we're being taken for mugs. Putting aside the question of early signings - and there must be something in that because even Edinburgh have their roster half filled - there has been considerable fan discontent on here and other social media about how the off season has been going.
The club surely, even in their worst moments of amateurism, can't claim to be unaware of that. Then to go with the big build up for this announcement, which certainly gave the impression that it was a big signing, just makes the situation worse. No disrespect to Blair by the way - a completely capable back up and probably one if the best in the league. Just look at the comments on FB - how many clubs announce signings and get such a negative response from fans? And those fans are completely right. It feels like the club are just taking the proverbial.
Loads of stuff coming out from the club about renewing season tickets. They're never shy to say "give us yer money" but the clubs PR is simply broken.

happy blair is back but all the stuff from the club yesterday was a disgrace, the tone of all the season ticket stuff yesterday came across as almost threatening to me, pay up now. surely with all the discontent the club must realise the fans are not happy, i notice they are deleting negative comments on facebook too, i am keeping my options open my season ticket direct debit will be held till the last minute if i even hand it in

Don't give the directors the guaranteed income. Make them work for it. They've taken the **** out of us for far too long and it's time that we fought back. I'm picking and choosing my games. 3 years as a season ticket holder and i've had enough. The contempt shown towards the fans is disgusting. Why do you think they keep pushing the season tickets on social media? Sales are down. They're worried they won't get their usual summer cash. On attendance alone we're top 6. Our ice fees will be significantly reduced as will housing compared to Braehead/Belfast/Cardiff. This club should be competing for silverware.

The only way to stop how were treated as fans is by not buying season tickets until we hear from the owners what sort of team they're looking for, if there will be upgrades and until we see some new faces, it'll soon change if they don't get their early season ticket sales, whoever is in charge of Facebook and Twitter needs their p45 along with the DJ of course. Braehead are a 6/7 year old team and have left us completely behind in all aspects now

Agree, if we do end up buying it will be by credit card on 31 July. Lot of people saying "be patient and ignore what other teams are doing" but how can being the only team taking so long to sign be the correct approach. Think about it. If you were a good player would you not want to know by now where you were playing next season? Sure there are about 12 weeks until the season starts but hopefully they won't be arriving the day it starts. Players should be arriving in 10 weeks which is not long to get all the paper work and plans sorted.These guys are effectively moving home for seven months. Looks to me like we don't have a plan, and/or we can't sign the players we want. As a family we are firstly hockey fans and secondly Flyers fans and it has become very difficult supporting Flyers given how TM treats the fans. He does not give a flying ****. If he treated Flyers fans half as well as those of Dundee, Edinburgh and Braehead that would be a big improvement. We are strongly considering going somewhere else to watch our hockey next season. Dundee signing Clarkson was massive for them, adding to some other good signings. Braehead look very good, and whilst behind Those two Edinburgh are miles ahead of Flyers. What a rubbish organisation!

id like to think flyers had a fair chunk of the team signed by now and just feeding us one or two a week but im really not so sure after today.u would think to get the slow season ticket sales kickstarted it wouldve been a shiny new import and maybe a daly chucked in too
