Murrayfield Racers v Dundee Tigers: Murrayfield with all the players I loved to hate including "Beachball" Jock Hay and Dundee playing in their Rockets strip with a dodgy tiger on it. Nottingham Panthers v Murrayfield Racers: Features Nottingham's old rink and a ridiculous number of goals. |

Love the graphics at the start, looks like a ZX Spectrum game is loading, not a live hockey match!

Moray Hanson was one the top keepers back then, he wouldn't get start at snl these days. Different style of net minding completely. No wonder there was goals galore

Yes I remember those days well. Murrayfield always had a thin layer if ice and the surface looked grey. Thankfully these days the concrete does not show through. I can't remember how bad the keeping was, having seen those games it is night and day to what we see now. It was great to see some of the old faces that were part of the game. Is there any from the Flyers archives?

Is there any from the Flyers archives? There's this one Colin: which just shows the Whitley goals. There's another which shows Fife goals but I can't find it. I do remember watching it. Has Al Sims, Moria and Perlini in it  |

There is this one Only shows Whitley Bay scoring though. Goaltending in this clip looks awful too. |

Watching our game vs Racers made me have a pang of nostalgia for the much missed old rink. That aside, how horrific was the netminding? I started watching hockey in '94 and even between then and now, the difference in styles is astonishing. The way Hanson and Cox tried to kick out those fierce slapshots early in the game was questionable to say the least.

I remember Bob Bergloff for Dundee slapping one into the crowd, hitting my mate flush in the face as he sat next to me front of section G. Broke his cheekbone. He presented him with a stick next game up at Dundee on the ice. Keep your eye on the puck at all times !

yeah until patty roy came out with the profly butterfly style and made it work and recently the new hybrid system goalie were easy meat to score past i guess unless they were quick and had great reflexes.
