LANCASHIRE Hawks face a head-to-head with a former skipper this weekend-twice over.

A double date against Fife Fliers in the National Ice Hockey League, sees Hawks confront ex-goal ace John Haig, brother of Lancashire defenceman Bobby, and a player in top form right now.

Hawks stand just one place off the bottom of the National League table, having lost 10 of their 11 fixtures to date.

They make the trek to Scotland tomorrow before entertaining the Fliers at the Arena on Sunday night (face-off 6pm).
