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.

AFTN Bingo

Close-season boredom and all that...

Can I have a point every time someone posts the phrase "... should be challenging for the league or at least make the play-offs" during the run-up to next season.

What other phrases would be worth a few points over the Summer?

"Paul McManus scores for fun"

"New Bayview has a poor atmosphere"

The latter really gets on my tits as it's fans that create an atmosphere not stadiums.

Re: AFTN Bingo

The Euro Championships will also provide the predictable

"I don't mind England but it's the commentators I can't stand"

"When will they mention 1966?"

"......1966......"

"England expects"

"We need an experienced manager"

"The stripes on our new home top are 2.5mm too wide"

Re: AFTN Bingo

"We won't win anything until the players are wearing white shorts"

"Get behind the players"

"You're not a real fan"

"these pies are shite"

"We should be walking this League with the players we've got"

Re: AFTN Bingo

"Must be a Raith/Cowden/Dunfermline supporter", as soon as anyone expresses an opinion different to their own.

"No doubt the usual suspects will be on his back before he's even kicked a ball, let's give the lad a chance", by folk attempting to pre-empt others moaning about a new signing.

Once the season is underway:

"That's a game we would have lost/drawn last season", after nicking a draw/win where we've played poorly.

"On another day we'd have scored *insert large number here*", after a frustrating game in front of goal.

Re: AFTN Bingo

"That performance was just a bad day at the office."

"Why can't we take a corner kick ?"

Re: AFTN Bingo

Heard it from a very reliable source who cannot be named under any circumstances that Kenny Deuchar will be signing for us. Fact. Of course, the glass half empty brigade may not agree.
Some R*ith fans will continue to omit letters in E*st F*fe. Brutal.
PS - when do the new strips go on sale?

Why do I have to hear the news about Kenny Deuchar on AFTN rather than the official website ?
