Rather than try score points please tell me what the negative of an advert being on the telly has for any ice hockey team in Scotland? Ronnie- not a single poster has said there is anything negative from a Clan perspective. Clan made the advert to promote themselves which is good for them. One or two of us are just reminding you that they didn't make the advert to promote hockey in general. I honestly can't see what the problem is here. There is a Fife link because they chose to use Bobby's dashing good looks before they punted him but thats it. Eh, aye, this. Also, if it was seen in Kirkcaldy why on earth did Clan not just pay for it to be shown in the west of Scotland?! What a waste of cash.

Sorry to post three times but:
If you watch the actual ad you'll see that advert deliberately avoids showing the front of Dundee's jersey! If this is about advertising Scottish hockey as a whole, why do that?

Of course it's a Clan advert BUT it is shown on Scottish TV and might well influence other folk from other areas who may already know they havea team nearby but have never been to see them or who may just think they like the look of that, wonder if I do have a team nearby.
What's hard to understand about that?

I've seen it, I think it's a great advert for the Clan and they should be applauded for doing it. Will in help other Scottish teams, in my opinion not one bit. The argument being used is a bit like saying 'I've just seen an advert for Asda on the TV, better go and shop at tescos'!

I think we're going round in circles. It's not difficult to understand, but the point of the advert is to advertise Braehead Clan only. Cause y'know, it's their cash, and they have every right to do so.
As I said earlier, it's not doing any harm to any other team. I just don't think it'll help any other team either.
I hope I'm wrong.

Thank you, a balanced view. It raises awareness all over Scotland and I see nothing bad in that, shame some folk do!

Cheers Not sure if you're asking me, or the other guy there? I never said any of it was bad, merely told the other guy not get too worked up about other people's views.

There is no 'bad' in any of the comments. p.s. in relation to one of your previous comment- I'm not a moderator on any other hockey forum

I was referring more to the fact there is, and always will be, someone to make a negative comment about everything, even if what they're saying is baseless. Any comments that annoy me on forums, I just don't read further posts from that user, or, where possible, hide any future posts they put on there using the configuration

The Flyers have produced a poster for this weekend's home double header. If we post it all over Scotland it will raise the profile of hockey in general. Then we just wait for the thank-yous to roll in from the other Scottish teams.

If I put one up in the Sky call centre at Dunfermline then we raise the profile nationally as there are many people from all over the country in Dunfermline every day for work before travelling back south/west.
