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.

Re: East Stirlingshire v East Fife

If we have Liam smith back at right back next week I reckon we should start Ross brown and Lewis Barr in centre midfield. Ross is by far the best cm and attacking minded with Lewis keen to get stuck in. Lewis must be wondering what he has to do to get a start he has been the best player the last two games only playing about 15 mins in both of them it.

Re: East Stirlingshire v East Fife

Liam Smith supposed to be out for 7-10 days then away with under 19's if fit, hopefully Jules back for Arbroath game then Ross Brown back to midfield where he's best. Yes time Lewis Barr was given a start as too many others in midfield didnt turn up last week in first half, lost anither goal & game over, we' re lucky to still be in 4th place but glad!! C'mon lads a Win against Arbroath will give us all a lift again!!

Re: East Stirlingshire v East Fife

Brilliant for Liam Smith to be selected for Scotland u19s for the elite qualifiers of the Euros where they will płay Austria, Croatia and Italy. Hopefully Fraser Mullen will be fit and can play at right back releasing Brown into midfield, agree with comments re Barr, give him a start and see how it goes, need more from Dickson and Riordan, not just about goals need work harder without the ball ! Fash should be desperate to do well after queens game, his form up intil then was very good.

Re: East Stirlingshire v East Fife

Is Fash just banned for one game???

I agree DJ mullen would fit better at right back putting Brown in his natural position in midfield and if Julen's not fit like to see Page and Campbell at CB with Gary at left back hopefully Fash isn't out for these two games against the North east's clubs visting Bayview his goals and work rate has been on fire up until he got two yellow cards in a poor game at Hampden.

Re: East Stirlingshire v East Fife

Hopefully Mullen will be back & put at RB but I think Naysmith will put him in midfield leaving Brown at RB. Hopefully I'm wrong and Brown will be back to midfield, just a feeling looking at past games. I do think Brown is a much better midfielder than Mullen with his passing etc.

Re: East Stirlingshire v East Fife

We should beware cos was it not Arbroath at home last time when we were short and Brown and Barr were out of position in defence???????

Re: East Stirlingshire v East Fife

That Kevin Nesbit quite a good player scored the winner up at Elgin for shire tonight and against us on saturday if only we had someone like him on offer at east fife i would be delighted. Now puts the shire on level on points with us it seems like we are distance ourself from the top three teams and have a hard run-in if you look at who we have to face with teams around us from 4th to 9th.

Re: East Stirlingshire v East Fife

Kevin Nisbet is on loan from Partick Thistle. Maybe next season...

Re: East Stirlingshire v East Fife

What if both us and EastStirling caught up with Arbroath. How good would that be?

Re: East Stirlingshire v East Fife

We need to win games and beat arbroath if we are to catch them but i don't think we will with our form and no one wants fourth place. Certainly need to beat Annan, Twice against Berwick and Elgin to remain where we are in the play-offs.
Remember they beat us heavy here in december so dont get your hopes up of catching arbroath.

Whit?

Our form is as good as any team in the league in 2015
Every Fife fan I know would be delighted with fourth place
We don't need to face Elgin City twice as we've already played them three times
