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.

No-one since Billy McPhee in 1970-71 season has scored as many goals as Ryan has. Some achievement when you consider the passing of 40 years worth of goalscoring talent at Bayview. Hope he goes on to score a few more and stays at Bayview for our assault on Division 1 next season. Respect to Ryan and thanks to a certain Arbroath based fan for pointing this out.
He gets a few with his head as well (arf, arf). 
The kid knows where the back of the goal is, there's no doubt about that.
I reckon Robertson deserves huge credit for getting him back onto the straight and narrow as well.
Hopefully he stays a Fifer next year, but I'd imagine a few full-time clubs have taken note. 
I see what you did there KotS

What about terracing in the shape of Ryan Wallace?
The First 2 Finance Sports Direct @ Bayview Ryan Wallace End has a certain ring to it.
Best strikers in those 40 years?
King Billy was really a midfielder so doesn't really count.
Out and out strikers then (in no particular order) - Durie, Deuchar, Hunter, Scott, Sludden, McManus, Wallace. There are no doubt others but my favoured two up front would be Durie and Hunter (or maybe Deuchs, then again possibly Scotty, or ok Ryan Wallace but only if he stays next season!).

Wrong. McPhee played left wing in 1970-71 in a 4-2-4 formation under Pat Quinn.

Left wing so not an out and out striker then??

Certainly not in midfield. Old Timer is correct, McPhee played in the forward line when he first came to Bayview, wearing the number 11 shirt. Only in the last year with East Fife he wore the number 6 shirt. Even under Frank Christie in 1974-75 he was played wide left in the forward line .
Dundee , looking at Ryan .
