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.

Thought we were excellent today. Opening goal was a tremendous pass from Janczyk, who played the ball through the Forfar defence and Dalziel slotted the ball home after a one on one with the keeper. 5 minutes later Ryan Wallace scored a great header from a corner kick. We could have made it 3 or 4-0 but lost a sloppy goal from a throw in where Byers just had to tap the ball in the net. Felt at that point, before half time, we looked a little shaky and tired in defence and Forfar were getting back into the game but we did well to keep it 2-1 at HT. Second half we were well on top. Never looked like conceding and defensively we were absolutely brilliant. Wallace got his second after a brilliant run, beating 2 or 3 defenders before striking the ball in the top corner. What a goal as well! Shortly after Wallace again made a great run and set up Linn who missed an absolute sitter which would have wrapped up the game for us with plenty of time left. The winning goal came during the last minute of extra time and it was Wallace who picked the ball up and played it wide to Johnstone who then set up Dalziel to score his second smashing the ball into the open goal.
A great, solid performance from everyone today and was great to see Dalziel and Wallace scoring 2 goals each. Man of the match had to go to captain Darren Smith who was absolutely immense as usual. More of the same for the rest of the season! 
Great performance today! God knows how we are going to keep Wallace with the way he is playing, but lets enjoy it while it lasts. His confidence is sky high just now and he is a real joy to watch.
Cant really fault any player today. Bobby isnt quite reaching the highs we know he is capable of, but it will come back in time. Also has there ever been a harder working player than Darren Smith? Immense again.
Good turnout again from the Fife faithful. We out numbered the home support at Brechin and we cant have been that far off doing that today.
Tut tut!
Wasn't at the game today - work :)
Did Ryan have his new boots on today? Absolutely crackin' Irn Bru belters! Well done Ryan Wallace
