Does anyone think we need a GM ?
Most of us think the organisation is disjointed and has been for a while
The good thing about social media and streaming Flyers away games and YouTube highlights gives you an insight to what other Clubs are doing.
Right now we are a club that needs this person to pull it all together
Someone that needs rope and not have the ownership meddling once the strategy and targets have been agreed for the season.
Flyers badly need this help right now
Or things will get beyond saving

I have felt that for a couple of seasons. Would have a head coach and a playing assistant coach with a General Manager that runs the Flyers on a day to day basis.

How can we make our voices and apathy known. I’m Football you see ownership protests, tennis balls on the pitch that sort of thing. The owners must take responsibility for the farce that this club is quickly becoming.
Website, Social Media, Game Night, Community Programme are all worse than ever. Now Covid may affect some of the community stuff so that’s somewhat excusable but as for the rest it is appalling. The Flyers are being left to die a slow death.
If you know we are a gate based club it doesn’t take a rocket scientist to know what brought people to the rink. Teams with Nicker were the best supported not only because of the fights but because of the fan interactions the beard shave for charity etc.
It’s time the owners took responsibility for the decline in Match night experience. Our website is not indicative of a professional sport team again that is completely unacceptable.
It is infuriating to watch from the outside with no information and no sign of change. The future of the flyers looks bleak.

I suggested this very point many years ago, the situation is many times worse now but nothing will change, you are dealing with dinosaurs and a team of yes men.
It's obvious to a blind man the simple alterations that could turn this club around, a GM with power would clear out 90% of the dross from the coach downwards but getting TM to give someone that power is unthinkable.
The old saying ..... cannae see the wood for the trees is very applicable.

But he isn’t just picking up a wage each month. The guy lives here and has done for more than 20 years. He has settled and bringing up his daughter here. Does that impact on how things are done yeah probably but let’s not slate him as not caring. In a lot off ways he cares to much and isn’t cut throat enough, changing out imports being an example. But that has a positive side he is loyal and that does mean something to players. Is change needed yeah off course the club is in dire straits but it’s not because Dutes doesn’t care. |

Very well said and kindly put, however, if he had any self respect he’d step aside and that would mean finding another job, so maybe it is the easy option

Give up and walk away…..that’s just not hockey people’s mentality. |

No other club in the EIHL would have kept Todd in a job, the results over the last ten years have not lied, he finished last in year one when he stated unbelievably that he underestimated the league (not one fan did that)would have been last the previous season (uncompleted but not in doubt) and currently LAST yet again.
The whole experience at KIA is dire, fans are deserting, match night presentation, live broadcast etc etc etc the list goes on.
How long is this going to continue, or more importantly HOW can it continue ?
