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.

Unfortunately you don't seem to have any yourself, by having a cheap jibe at the board!
Sigh!

You should be in your bed.
It is true though,not really a cheap jibe but a fair one,What about those season ticket holders they are not getting anything and they travel to some away games as well,and they have the same costs or more as non-season ticket holders have.here we go
I also saw the board with nice new jackets so they are getting something as well,but not those poor season ticket holders who paid for them most probally.
nice for the club to keep the prices down due to a mid-week game i think the club has looked at our lack of people attending the game on a tuesday night in the past few weeks when we had games called off, hopefully with the prices down we can get a good crowd through the gate and put bums on seats

Disgusted from Denbeath
This is a bloody outrage!!! Surely common sense should prevail and all current season ticket holders should be compensated with a free pie.
Wait a minute. I'm a season ticket holder who doesn't eat pies!
And they say you can't please all the people all the time.
A season ticket works out a tenner a game anyway. If you get the early offer it's £8.89 a game.
I've got a season ticket and I'm all for the Club lowering prices - lower them further even....
17s youth squad are pretty much all going to the game tonight i hear

Well,dropping the prices didn`t really swell the coffers in fact we probably made a loss.
Three main reasons why people dont go as much or stopped going completely...
1)Money is tight - Yes
2)More atmosphere on the moon than Bayview. This still applies with a full house btw. - Rubbish!
Atmosphere is down to the fans, so you are criticising yourself. And... saying it also applies to a full house tells me you haven't been in Bayview when there has been a full house!
3)The team aren't great are they? Anyone who witnessed the 6-0 thumping by Dumbarton would be put off coming back for a long long time. - Rubbish!
Football teams can get the odd drubbing, but their supporters don't necessarily desert them. I didn't and a few hundred other supporters didn't, because we still go!
Bayview is a good place to come if you fancy picking up points. Just ask Cowdenbeath. They cant wait for Saturday! Easy away win. -
Want a wager on the result on Saturday then? I'm sure you will give me very good odds?
Still, it`s a nice pitch. - Correct!

Rubbish! Think back to the lino visit(s) a couple of years back. You could hardly hear them with near 2000 in the stadium. The one stand acoustics just dont work.

Rubbish. Dumbarton thumping was just the tip of the iceberg. Too many times this season the team have looked out of sorts, uninterested, second to every ball and lethargic.
And i still go btw. Just not as often as i'd like.
Last night we looked no better.

Eh... check out the prices mate! -
From EF website-
East Fife to win the match are 13/8 and there are more markets available.
If I bet 20 quid on this match, it will be to get more than evens back, if it is the odds available at the bookies! Are you sure you never go to bookies? Tell the truth, yer a bookie, aren't ye??
Or, how about if East Fife win, you give £20 to Cazza for the POTY raffle, but if Cowdenbeath win, I give £30? Feel free to up the amount you would have to pay and I'll match it plus £10.
What I won't do, is let you benefit personally from your 'own' team's loss, if that indeed is what happens!
Opinion
Give my winnings to Cazza to go towards the youth set up and not POY dance. That shower ain't worth celebrating.
Eh.... what winnings are you talking about neebs? Are you accepting the bet, now you know the result?
Sigh!

On the contrary, you need to read the posts more carefully, my friend. Besides, irrespective of the score, money would be going Cazza's way for the POTY raffle from me, which by the way, is not for the players as you seem to think!
Can you describe to us all. what you believe a supporter of a football club is?
