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.

GoF

It was the usual relegation battle that has struck again. Yet another poor appointment that hasn't worked out has struck again. Well done the board asking him to resign though.

AFTN threads in the past thought Willie was deluded!!. Nothing to do with AFTN,Willie has walked before being pushed. Its been a mess since start of the season and wrong appointment.At least Willie and the board have recognised it quickly and not waited until January. Please lets not give the job to Naismith lets go for experience.

In print form it took AFTN 6 years to bring down a dud manager, with the power of the internet it now takes less than 6 months. Let us be thankful

Re: AFTN Strikes Again

I spoke to WA today and he said that he had been doing all he could to turn things around but in a moment of weakness had read AFTN. When he realised that probably 5% of a home crowd (2.5% if you take away posters with multiple names and posters who don't actually go to games)were baying for his blood on AFTN he wilted under the pressure. He genuinely felt that he could have continued if it hadn't been for the pressure exerted by "the voice of the fans". He also said that when he arrived at Bayview there had been a mass protest by AFTN posters but they were half a mile away,wearing masks and disguising their voices.

However WA's resignation has saved us from last season's posters who were never coming back but did come back but were starting to never come back once more. In a few weeks they will be able to come back again and start planning for the next time they wont be coming back.
Next season a few of them will be due a never coming back testimonial which will be a complete flop because most of those attending will leave and never come back.

I actually got a bit confused and now I don't know who is back, come back, coming back, not coming back unless, not coming back, never coming back..... had enough........that's it.......I didn't go today..... ...... On the other hand, when counting them up, allowing for some multiple name posters, it still only adds up to around the 10 mark, which means that it was actually less than 2.5% that forced Willie to resign! These keyboards are indeed very, very powerful!

I refer you to another post I made, but with a couple of wee changes -

What a pathetic post, why bother posting such drivel? It does not really matter who is who because in most cases we don't know who is who. The comments are what matter and as you are obviously somewhat limited in the intellect department, you then go calling everybody Jocky as some sort of witty statement and pure conjecture! Even funnier, is the fact that you actually believe it!

Anyway, who IS Jocky??
