Away From The Numbers

All good things come to an end. Or so they say. AFTN has been around since 1989, first as a fanzine and then making the jump to a website and forum in 2003. We've been through the many ups and down at East Fife in those 12 years but policing the forum has become a giant pain in the ass in recent years. As such, we made the decision not to renew it when it expired.

The forum is no more and will remain as a locked archive until it is eventually deleted by the host. We're looking in to try to save some of the content as an archive.

This is not the end of AFTN though. The site will continue and will be revamped and return in its full glory for the start of the 2016/17 season. Maybe even sooner. There will be a comment sections and possibly even a new, registered forum. Check our Twitter (@aftnwebsite) for all the latest info and we'll also post in on the EFFC memories Facebook page.

Until then, have a last browse here, thanks for all your support over the years, and 'Mon the Fife.

Volunteers

Why does EFFC constantly shit on the volunteers who give up their time and money to support the club and then turn around and say that they need volunteers (Sid Columbine at the Supporters Club meeting).

I spoke to a volunteer today who said he has been badly let down by the club and he wiil no longer do any voluntary work for the club.

Re: Volunteers

Because the board are useless fucks and want the fans to provide all the money, get sponsors, come up with ideas, do all the manual labour, pay the highest gate in the league. USELESS.

Re: Volunteers

what was the Raith score today? I forgot to check

Re: Volunteers

Im an East Fife fan you muppet. Are you on the board? Whats your opinion?

Re: Volunteers

C.D Your choice of words are concerning and insulting. Been drinking?

The old Bayview terracing was built with the help of fans. All clubs have volunteers. We all want a community club, volunteering lets fans mix with other fans and staff at the club, meet the players, etc and feel part of the club. Not to mention the feel good factor that helping brings. Ok, sometimes one or two personality clashes will happen, just like any other business. If treated badly by anyone, make a complaint and if not happy, withdraw the services. If you think so badly of the board, what are you doing about it? Have you asked to meet anyone and give your grieviences? Eugene is only too happy to assist in any issues you might have instead of spouting off on here.

Apart from the rude insult, I have no problem with this post. It's true.
What I would add to clarify is that it's not just all about directors passing on their responsibilites to the fans, it's also because the directors are incapable of running the club themselves. If EFFC was being formed today, hardly one of these people would be involved.
