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.

Terry Lawrence

I was walking down Kdy High Street today with my East Fife TShirt on and this old bloke stopped me and shook ma hand. He said he played for the fife in the 50s' and played along side Charlie Fleming, Henry Morris etc. His name was Terry Lawrence.. a really nice guy.. he told me a load of old footballing tales and then left. Does anyone have any info on this guy..

Re: Terry Lawrence

Don't remember a Terry Lawrence.

Re: Terry Lawrence

mmm he seemed genuine but he was under the influence! Tried a google search myself but found nothing.. that why I asked the question here...

Re: Terry Lawrence

Toj

No record of a Lawrence making a first-team appearance for The Fife in the fifties. There was a Bobby Leishman and Billy Luke.
This doesn't mean that he wasn't on our books at one stage during that period. I can check this out. I have this information on disc somewhere...

Re: Terry Lawrence

AngusFifer... if you have a spare 5 mins sometime... have a wee check in your archives... I am just curious...cheers

Re: Terry Lawrence

sorry, he's called your bluff

Re: Terry Lawrence

Not again Toj.I thought you would have learned your lesson about guys like that after the incident with the youth club bloke!

Re: Terry Lawrence

Was it you or him under the influence Toj!! ps.. can you get me a programme for this weeks home game and I'll square you up in August. Cheers!!

Re: Terry Lawrence

Nae bother pingpong... consider it done...

I am getting the feeling I was had by this guy.. maybe I was still blootered from the Saturday night...

Re: Terry Lawrence

Ah mind oh him.

Re: Terry Lawrence

Was he no lead singer with the specials in the 1980s

Re: Terry Lawrence

Nah, that was Terry Hall. Terry Lawrence was Juice Terry in Irvine Welsh's books. Aw no, that wis Terry Lawson, I think.

Just who is this Terry Lawrence.

Re: Terry Lawrence

I remember Terry Lawrence. I spotted him down Kirkcaldy today. Under the influence again but looking great for his years. He hasnt changed much from his playing days. Took a quick snap with my camera to see if jiggles a few memories! Looks a bit like Bobb Nudd!

Re: Terry Lawrence

Terry is a neighbour of mine. On meeting him in the street today, I took the opportunity to let him know that he was now a celebrity. "Correct!" was his reply and he went on to relate tales of Charlie Fleming & Co. Seems to know his stuff.

Hmmm, still not sure, though.

Re: Terry Lawrence

Toj

Sorry. Since the 2nd World War East Fife have never had a player with the 2nd name of Lawrence on their books. No record of a Terry Lawrence signing for any Scottish Senior team either during that time.
Perhaps he played for Bayview Youth team?

Re: Terry Lawrence

Thanks Angus... as I feared.. Going by the repsonses posted I better be prepared for some serious p**s taking on Sat!

Re: Terry Lawrence

Hey Toj, altogether now...."theres only one Terry Lawrence..."
See you in Sids.
