it kinda does as that means us and clan are financing the others a bit , taking about 900-1000 with us to there rinks and they don't return the favour so there taking our money but won't come to our rink nae wonder they can afford 11 imports

Wait a minute so fife an Braehead taking a crowd to Dundee and Edinburgh 4 times a year funds they're 11 imports. No. Regardless of who comes to the rink over the season flyers will average far more than Dundee,Edinburgh and hull. Id bet my house flyers could easily afford 11, but they want to make money, that's the bottom line.

The Dundee support is poor even at home never mind away, I think the last game at fife we had the best support I have seen, and if there had been anymore fans there would have been no place to sit anyway. We all know Kirkcaldy is a big hockey town, and you support the flyers in numbers close to home, I wish more people would travel away, but we all know its going to be the same fans week in week out.

I totally agree, and it makes me laugh to think that there are people above who refuse to go to away games cos they think its funding the 11 imports. True hockey fans eh! Think you should look closer to home on your import situation.

Yeah I agree Casper (good to see a non fife supporter talk sense on an opposing teams forum)
Was great to see the Barn packed against you guys reminds me of the great battles we had with Dundee in the BNL.

Cheers Flyer. Yeah was probably the best crowd and atmosphere I have seen since the good ol days. Pity our hockey didn't match up lol. Lets hope this weekend we will get the same and the hockey is better also. I for 1 will be at both games. Good luck to both teams.

Yeah I can't wait for Sunday missing Saturday but Im hoping we can get something at home and then get a big crowd on the road for Sunday. If we lose both games I think realistically our best chance is to finish 8th this year. Biggest weekend of the season possibly for both clubs.

Fifes biggest game was the home loss to Braehead which has made these games doubly important, it all boils down to the Owner at KIA if the Wards were having the crowds Fife had they would be up in the top5 no question and with 11 quality players, they have shown more commitment by far and all the critisism levelled at Mr Muir is self inflicted in my opinion.

Self Inflicted, and totally justified.

Dundee's new import watched the game at KIA tonight , apparently Kraus is being cut, and no he is not a Flyers calibre player.
