Ref strike denying your fix of live sport? Then come to Sunday night Hockey!

This Sunday night, your Edinburgh Capitals face up to new local rivals the Braehead Clan. Face off is at 6pm, Murrayfield Ice Rink.

Come and experience the fastest team sport in the world with collisions and tackles that makes football look like a girls game - and the occasional fight!

I've been a couple of times to Murrayfield but often forget it's on. I'm pretty sure more folk would turn up if they knew exactly when the games would be played as they change every week.

The Capitals don't do themselves any favours by not advertising their games either. When I've mentioned in the past to friends where I've been most folk don't even know there's still a professional outfit here.

You make good points, but Sunday 6pm is almost always a home game. Sometimes I just turn up at Murrayfield at 6pm having not even checked the fixture list knowing there will be game on.

If I was the Caps I'd definitely use it as a marketing strategy - Every Sunday, 6pm. So easy to remember it's not real!

Anyone who's interested, the Caps beat the Clan 8-3.

Good to know.

When I was young the Racers as they were then gave away free tickets to schools and sponsors. We nearly always managed to get a set and the crowds seemed far bigger than they are now.

I'll try and pop over next week.

The next two weeks are unusual in that both our weekend games are at home.
