Fights, fights and more fights and just watch the casual fans flood back, this dont retaliate Dutes style of hockey just does not generate the excitement of the rough stuff, only have to look at the Fife crowd after "that" Dundee game. Too right! |

You seem to have it covered on your first post, well done  Instead of criticising those that have an opinion, why don't you give yours on club related matters? |

I would disagree completely, I think most topics on here are in general very well reasoned. Yes, not everyone will agree, and there are many opinions, but rather than slate those who do, it would offer a far greater argument, or slant on things, if you ventured your own opinion.

Ken Farrell? Mair like Ken Dodd! Like sparkymark said, feel free to start your own threads and improve the quality of the board if you think it's c***. |

Ken Farrell, glad to see you made it and actually contributed to the debates on this forum.
On all forums you will have an odd person who seems to have little education or complete lack of knowledge of the current topics related to the subject however on this forum many people are very knowlegeable of the sport its designed to serve having followed it for many years spending their hard earned cash along the way and are entitled to their opinion whether it differs from yours or not.
I don't believe its appropriate to come on and appear to be seen as the Oracle of all things wise and true with your first post, perhaps you could enlighten us with your advanced knowledge and put the worlds to right.

I think most criticism relates to frustration at how good the team can be. It may not achieve anything but it shows that some of us can see great potential, only we seem to make it difficult for ourselves. The issue I have is when we were told lessons were learned, then we have a repeat of some of the problems from last season. I guess lessons were learned applies to starting with 9 rather than 5?

Promote the club. I've tired on numerous occasions, the last being the Autumn Cup weekend when I had the interest of a contact I've worked with at a national broadsheet who were interested in covering the games and wanted photos (my contact I'll do them). I emailed the club, no reply, pm'd an official and was told (eventually) it wasn't being organised by the Flyers but was a Fife Ice Arena organised event. Emailed the rink no reply. Sadly, I wont go out of my way to offer help again.

at which point have I said I was the oracle or giving anything.
how can one be seen to give answers on how to improve things when the complete story isn't in front of you? would you like a surgeon standing over you with a knife thinking "what's wrong with him again" not really.
as for knowledge, i just stated I don't know what goes into the running of fife, as this topic is about how fife promotes this club does everyone know what's in the PR model? what the budget to do this is? what's actually in the plans? Who's currently being spoken to? for experience, yes i have experience in the sport. maybe not been going to the flyers as long as many of you but IF your comment was aimed at me with "little Education or complete lack of knowledge" really? for one you know nothing about me and what I know about the sport I've played from club to national level but that doesn't give me more of a right to debate more than anyone else...

Agree with kenfarrell here, no wonder the Flyers shut the official forum down! Too many clowns not knowing what they actually want but are happy to type whatever ridiculous garbage crosses their mind. If your not happy then stop going, simple as! if your a real fan you would back the squad, coaches, directors and all another back room staff and if you have concerns or suggestions etc. then grow a set and talk to these people, email them even but for goodness sake why come on here and moan and do nothing about it! |

Thank you, i was expecting to have a mass mob on my hands.. fife flyers have been around since 1938. I think all club officials have done well so far without the flyers forum input so have faith in them, might not do what everyone likes or expects but flyers are still going... that says something about the people DIRECTLY involved. lay off them a little that's all! |

Here we go again with this "real fan" garbage. All these folk with nothing to say other than to profess how they are some sort of super-fans because they don't have an opinion which comes across as a criticism of the club. At the end of the day, we live in a world of free speech and as customers, we're entitled to air an opinion on the product we are paying for. You may chose to pay your money, ask no questions and just accept what's given to you. Not everyone is the same. |

This does come across as a very sanctimonious post which infers that you are looking down from a great height on lesser individuals, as you later state i know nothing about you because i don't know who you are etc, well i have been involved with the sport a while myself and was probably a little bit of the influence into Flyers entry into the EIHL along with another man who done a lot for the club only for another guy to take the credit. I have personally sponsored Fife Flyers so have put my money where my mouth was and my family have went to games for over 30 years and spent a good few thousand pounds doing it along the way with many others who post on here regularly so i would say we are entitled to speak our minds, my own based on facts and figures of how a Hockey club operates and not talk verbal diarrhea as you describe. |
