spud131 Posted July 15, 2021 Share Posted July 15, 2021 Clan have appointed a new head coach, Malcolm Cameron, from Nova Scotia and a ton of experience. Now, we just need players. On paper it looks a very good appointment, top 5 in terms of all time wins in the ECHL. He's hopefully going to have a huge amount of contacts in the game and get us some hidden gems! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spud131 Posted August 5, 2021 Share Posted August 5, 2021 Clan announced several players over the last week or so including the return of Nolan Laporte and Matthieu Roy.The new coach seems to know what he wants and is quickly putting together what looks to be an exciting team. And we've got Fife at home as the first game of the season! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Torpar Posted August 9, 2021 Share Posted August 9, 2021 Not Elite League I know but saw pictures of Murrayfield Racers training at Dundee yesterday, I remember years back it was Dundee Tigers that trained at Murrayfield while they were homeless. I know a lot people of aren't big fans of Murrayfield, it being cold is a big complaint, crazy for an ice rink I know, and the owners are and always have been a bunch of arseholes but I really hope they can reopen soon for the many teams that play there. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robin.Hood Posted September 19, 2021 Share Posted September 19, 2021 How easy is it to get Dundee star tickets? Also is there any tickets to avoid that have a shite view ? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'll get a decent view pretty much anywhere in the arena. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MP_MFC Posted September 19, 2021 Share Posted September 19, 2021 Pretty much that. Always been fine to get them on walk up and the view is excellent from anywhere along the away side so I assume the home side will be just as good. My favourite rink to go to as a visitor. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MP_MFC Posted September 19, 2021 Share Posted September 19, 2021 Whitley Bay or Nottingham for me. Never been to Nottingham, I suppose my only non Scottish rinks to compare to thus far are Altrincham and Milton Keynes and Dundee kind of wins by default as you’re not sat behind a trawler net or frozen to your seat. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whitley Bay, and I've only ever played there, while not as bad as it used to be, is horrible for me. Changing rooms, one time I played there, just had a hole in the ground where the toilet used to be, can't remember ever getting hot water in the showers and the ice surface was always gray and looked dangerously thin. Though I should say the away changing rooms at Braehead weren't great either. I thought when I saw the signings Fife were making in the summer that they would struggle, signing guys from the Swedish 3rd tier and a Saskatchewan men's league wouldn't have filled me with hope if I was a fan, seems like I was right so far 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The rink has great acoustics and the walls at the back of the stands are corrugated metal, so you can create a fair racket banging on them.There is (was?) a great pub close by called The Last Orders which did pints for £1.50 and toasties for 50p. They also had a habit of wandering around offering people free chips.Whitley is also the goldilocks distance for an away trip where by the time you arrive you're tipsy but not so drunk that you don't remember the match. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was abit of uncertainty about the clans future, in particular about the arena after Intu went bust. Clan decided to withdraw from the Cup and were able to start their league season later than other teams. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caro-Kann Posted November 12, 2021 Share Posted November 12, 2021 (edited) I was thinking of taking in the Flyers game against Coventry since I'll be passing through on Saturday. Last hockey game I went to was Dundee v Belfast a couple of years ago. Never been to the Fife Ice Arena before, mostly just went to Capitals home games and occasional visit to Braehead although did go to an away game in Altrinham once when I was also down that way for a Bolton game.
