I'm neither up or down about daly being back. He is happy being a back up which is ok. But as a club planning we want to have a young guy pushing for the first spot. It's a shame that we lost Marr as that's the kind of guy we want as back up.

Leaving fans in the dark EVERY YEAR is the Flyers Way and it stinks, drip feeding written as though to teenyboppers stinks,the coaching stinks,to be honest there is not a lot going for the faithfull followers of FIFE FLYERS yet the Wards, Scott Neil and other owners would give their eye teeth to have fans like FIA's finest, it's disgusting how the organization treats their fans and a total revamp from the top down would not go wrong. Blair Daly will be a 10 year Flyer this season and had the coaching been of the right caliber he would be a starting goalie now freeing up a space for an import outfield player, lesser clubs have managed that feat. Even the Happy Clappers seem to have disappeared from these pages now, perhaps they have finally smelt the coffee and seen the system for what it is.

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 if I remember correctly, last season when we anounced signings, it was week about import and Brit, given that last week it was Dingle, it was likely to be a Brit today not sure if it's the fact the Stanley Cup is still on, or other reasons, but my enthusiasm for next season is almost non existant. Theres also a sense of dread building, I think in not anouncing signings, fans come to the conclusion that either: a) we are struggling to get players, or b) they are disenfranchised with the club, who have signed players but keep fans in the dark you'd really think after losing two of our top players (depending on your view of Nickerson and Lukacevic) the club would be in a rush to anounce a couple of blockbuster replacements to appease the fans and show us the direction the club is going, instead we have..........

Joke all you want. Your getting it lol.
No guys in all seriousness I think it's been proven at both Clan and Flyers that guys like Fitzy and Nickerson put bums on seats. Now I do know that Clan are going down the physical route now with signings and I guess that I'm saying that you'd better get tooled up lolol.
All ghe best in finding the right guy.

I think what Clan do isn't really as important as you think but in any case we need toughness there's no doubt about it. I'm not sure I'd be over the moon if we signed a guy like Gillies to be honest and think it's a strange one for Clan too- has massive potential to backfire. The 2 goons you had last year might have cost you the league because they just couldn't do it in a way that benefited the team all the time- it was all about ego and in Frank's case thuggery with a bit of cowardice thrown in.

If it's true Gillies is playing in Braehead next season, who can send me a link to get a clan season ticket?

I've always thought some of the 'Clan love' on here was a bit cringey at times but I suppose this is just upping it a wee bit.

I don't believe for a minute the "clan love" as you put it exists. I do believe that people do appreciate the highly professional off ice performance from a club so soon in existence, compared to the flyers who still seem mired in their amateur outlook and performance.

I think there's as much admiration for their on ice stuff. Yeah they're professional too but I'd rather poke my own eyes out wi needles than sit in amongst the Purple Army, or fawn over Neil Black and his obnoxious off springs. Not saying we do, but they've no class whatsoever and not an outfit I'm jealous off to be honest and I think I've made my feelings clear regarding the way the Flyers operate recently.

Better get used to it. Once they actually start winning things regularly I'm sure there will be an exodus from Fife to the west coast. There's a certain type of Fife mentality that can't help themselves. The convoy of buses leaving Fife on a Saturday to go watch scummy, west coast football teams is testament to that.

That makes the way TM treats Flyers fans all the worse. He has a very loyal, sizeable, knowledgable fan base, which he treats with utter contempt. The Flyers support deserves a Clan like off ice level of professionalism, not the debacle we currently have.
