Just started this to see if anybody was interested in commenting on next game?
Need a reaction after last week. Beat them last time out.
Any chance of a repeat?

We're well capable of beating Arbroath if we play to our best but our home form has to improve!! I was at Arbroath last time & we played well, hoping for a repeat!! 😊

We'll get humped cause naysmith will be playin for a draw lol

Away win. No doubt about it. Merry Christmas everyone.

Haven't been back to Bayview this season. Not missed it in the slightest.
Become an utter joke of a club and unsurprising to see the current state of affairs.

Fucking crooks and charlatans the lot of them.

Clueless Naysmith 0-4 Arbroath

Hmmm the rest of us stay away fans,that
makes 2 of you.

Do you know dozens of fans that stay away
I think not.

Do not class yourselves as the majority cause
your not.

Never heard of a stay away supporter before
but carry on if it makes you feel better.
For myself I think I'll keep on supporting my
club through thick and thin and show I want
a club in my area.

No sorry mate you don't know me and a
statement like calling me stupid is exactly
the sort of thing gof is getting peeed off about.

As soon as a debate starts on this forum if
certain people dont like what you post they
resort to childish name calling just like you
done right there.

iam a supporter always was always will be
what you guys post about not going back,well
thats up to you but I have gone for many many
years as did my dad before me it's in the blood
iam loyal to my club not stupid to it.

Me Realist - Well said mate. I'm with you on this one. Real supporters stick by their team through thick and thin. Won't stop going.

Arbroath red hot favourites but, who knows for certain?
Mr Angry.....feel your pain. No doubt....and no disrespect. Everyone has a different breaking point. You will come back and you know it. Not sure when though?

BTW...Merry Christmas to you lot!

Too many ex-players against a on and off east fife team. Players at arbroath like McManus, linn, Mcbride, stoney and the goalie Morrison we had a few years back if he's still with them will hoping to come to bayview and score against a poor east fife team and we still can't beat Elgin or Annan but we will just have to wait what east fife side turns up and if we have enough players fit.
I had a look at last week's line up it appeared that we had fewer subs than Clyde and subs were youngsters apart from Kev Smith & McAleer(which is bizzare why McAleer doesn't get a game?) I think we need strengthen next month don't we? Good luck to the team on saturday though.

Same to you all, Have a merry xmas to all
east fife supporters.

Lets be honest we have no chance, zero chance, nada chance. Why? because we are devoid of creativity, passion, tenacity and lets be honest pride in wearing the famous black and gold. My message to all players turn up, play for the jersey or take a hike in the new year! Merry Xmas

A win for the Fife see you all on Saturday.ye ha Merry CChristmas to all.xx

Hopefully the fans will get right behind the team against Arbroath tomorrow, hoping for a Victory again!!

Eveyone get to the back of the stand and get the vocal suppor on the go, Mon the fife

You can't blame supporters for not going! The football has been brutal and far from value for money. I'm going today, only my 2nd home game of the season. Surely we can't be as bad as reports would suggest. I just hope we put in a decent performance and make me want to come back more often. Good luck to team today, we will need it.

For crying out loud, please, please refrain from the "I'm a better EF fan than you..." comments. Every EF fan has the right to decide whether or not to turn up to a game.

Will there be a pitch inspection today? I can't see nothing on official website.

No pitch inspection on twitter!!

I thought that all the bickering and bitching was going to stop,that's why a lot of fans don't bother coming on here,I don't bother coming on here very often now .game is on after an early inspection.

the reel diehards are the ultras we go to most games an sing
sumtimes we bang oor drum and jump up and down

we are the reel diehards mate weeve been going to the games for a whol seeson and that makes us reel diehard fans..
i smoke so im hard to

weeeeee are the ultras so dont messssssssss

He`s only stating what he and a lot of others think about the current state of affairs. Its called an opinion and that is his. One of the benefits of living in a democracy.

As for the name calling i hardly think "crooks and charlatans" amounts to libel and i doubt the courts would be interested. You must lead a very sheltered life Mr E.Fifefan.

By all means feel free to carry on though if it makes you feel better

ps
I`m not going today either. Its way too cold and we`ll get thrashed.
Plus the telly is looking quite good.
Feel free to have a go though.

Pretty simple really... they never missed a game for years ..... going each week and many years of torture but these guys have finally died as supporters now was hard work but it's done now..... Loads o them pal . Like I say I can name more guys who don't go than those who do . Open your eyes at bayview look around nae cunt is there .....What was the figure for season tickets sold this season ? We gave 200 to the bairns eh ? Would I be right in saying that the attendance at home is actually lower than season tickets issued ?

Amazing the amount of 'fans' coming on this site stating they won't be going and won't be back, haven't been at a game etc, etc, yet speaking like they have watched every game and know everything about East Fife?? Strange lot if you ask me! Just trolls obviously (and experts in law).

At the end of the day it doesn't matter to me how many games others attend. We all have East Fife at heart and want to see our local team compete. I certainly wouldn't hold it against anyone for not attending just like I wouldn't laugh at people who go to every game. Mon the Fife.

already arbroath 1-0 up

Equaliser 1-1 McShane from the spot. Good to say Naysmith has brought in Kevin Smith, Austin & McAleer to the team but bit confused at how Moyes is been dropped for either Brown or Barr playing centre back, though if it works i wont mind, C'mon fife

Half time its all square at 1-1, second half to come...come on Fife, win today will put us a point ahead of Ann'in or draw would be great. Come on Fife!

Fife 4-1 Down after 65 mins

Fife down to 10 men

looks like just another season of hope and glory. we don't deserve to be in the play-offs and we'll be lucky to stay away from the trap door if Elgin keep up their form at the bottom roll on transfer window please

5-1 down now

There is every chance we will finish bottom now.

Naysmith has to go NOW to try and salvage something from this train wreck of a season but I dare say the incompetents that have overseen the East Fife decline will do nothing as usual.

Sad, sad, sad.

I'm pretty sure the Eagle can call a taxi for Naysmith and never be manager at our club again.

Final score 5-1, pretty humiliating show out there today and its now three loses since we scored any points on the table which was a home win to Montrose and we have slipped down to 6th in the league, a well another season in league 2 to sort ourself's out. Blows to R.Campbell means he'll be banned & S.Smith (I hope he is ok) will be missing next game if they are we are down to the bare bones. worry times, roll on the fitbaw market.
also to note we have failed to beat Elgin, Annan, Clyde part from Berwick & Montrose is worrying if we'll escape being bottom and relegated theres still 4/5 months left but at the end of the day this club should be better than this lot and well played arbroath today though they deserved to beat us. also i don't think who we will bring in if Naysmith goes as we seemed to do better with a older much experience man in the dugout to bring east fife success just look at Dave Baikie i know he's gone and his level is now juniors but we have went onto managers younger and new to manager's hot seat at bayview that just didn't cut it to go on to manage east fife but my choice would be Billy Reid formerly of Hamilton or John McGlynn formerly of Livingston & our nearest rivals am sure Rankine (if he still part of EF) and board will now look at our recent performances and understand time to change, fresh approach needed at the moment we are going nowhere and squad is too small for injuries and suspensions that are happening.

What an absolute horror show. It was extremely painful to watch that second half. How could Arbroath score from our free kick level with Arbroath box. That summed the day up.

I was nervous right away to see Ross Brown and Lewis Barr in defence. They are decent midfielders!!!! Mullen not a midfielder, he can't pass the ball, firsts few passes went to opposition.

McAleer bound to be rusty by not getting much game time. Fash is a good amateur player only????? There is just no guessing who is going to be playing where these days.

To crown everything, McBride playing central defence strolled throughout the game, and once when put under pressure brought the player down and was booked.

Taken to the cleaners today

The difference today was arbroath front 2 very sharp in front of goal . Like the ginger boy and with playing with shagger up top both will score goals. Our team is a joke and over run in midfield. Fleming couldn't catch a cold,and over weight walker doesn't work hard enough. Only player who I thought was ok was ross brown

No point coming on saying I wont be back had enough etc etc. We had a decent support there today and I am sure they will be horrified what they had to watch. First point Ross Campbell let everyone down today his team, his manager, and the supporters, crazy crazy tackle. 2nd point exactly the same as last week, we folded like a pack of cards. No fight or character when things go against us. Now you cant coach that, you either fight your corner or let the opposition walk over you. Point 3 it doesn't matter whose to blame we are where we are, and its hard to see how its going to change short term. I feel sorry for Gary Naysmith as individual errors are being made on a catastrophic scale. First 3 goals were school boy errors. However having said all that the buck stops with the manager, I think that today might be enough for him as his body language said it all.

Remember when not so long ago certain people said Shagger was finished!!! Whats that, 16 goals or so this season already!!!
Would love to have him upfront cos lets be honest fash isn't good enough at this level.
Naismith should be telling him to watch the other forwards to see their movement and hunger!

Your right and it's his 17th no way is he finished his movement is still class and his link up play for 3 rd goal was brilliant. We need a clear out and some players look like they don't want to be here . No fight and passion = no points

What's the chances of a refund? That was truly shocking.

Ask Alan walker what he thinks of shagger . He has put a message up on Twitter and to me looks a total tool. What give him the right to slate an ex player after getting beat 5-1 after game. He should be on Twitter saying sorry to us fans before shouting his gums about Paul McManus .

FFS. Just read it.

I take it League Two doesn't have a Twitter policy for players from reading the whole conversation!

https://twitter.com/allanwalker86/status/548916326404997123

The boy has shown his true colours I hope the club fine him . Shocking sportsmanship and was our worst player the day . If he gave half the energy Paul McManus does he would be some player .

Thing is does he really think he could take shagger ? I've seen shagger go for it few years back and trust me he wouldn't want to go there.

Find it quite funny how he said that shagger is the worst player he's seen!! Think there are plenty of fifers who would tell him he's one of the worst players to put the strip on!!! All he's gonna do is fire up shagger more for next time they play against each other! #muppet

Agree first half EF were ok, then the sending off changed things, midfield were poor, lewis barr & ross brown played out of position although thought Brown was ok today. Dont understand MCaleer getting taken off, he done ok today too. 2 strikers very poor today, must do better. Kinda feel sorry for Naysmith, he,s trying but certain players just not good enough at this level.

Gryphon(Paul's dad),

McManus is shite and past it. This is the worst bottom tier there ever has been, Paul has scored a few and somehow you think the Fife miss him????

Nah. Ryan Wallace and Liam Buchanan are players we miss.

Aye a few players only good enough for Junior level, feel sorry for the young players, a few senior players let us down today!!

Allan Walker I hope you read this. Your comments are an embarrassment to yourself and the club. Instead of slagging off an EF legend you should have issued an apology to the supporters for witnessing that performance yday. You couldn't even lace Paul's boots. What a muppet! Anyone who says Shagger's past it is clueless, his performance yday proves that. We are a team full of amateurs and juniors with a pub league manager. Good luck for the rest o the season.

No its no Pauls dad, just a fellow supporter that can see a better player than the shite that we have!!

Did any one else notice that when McAleer was taken off, Stoney and his team mates had the whole stand side to themselves. Poor Ross Brown had wave after wave of opponents coming at him. At least McAleer was cutting this off up to he was subbed. How many Arbroath attacks were initiated up their left wing??????

How many players are bound to be sickened by it all. Stevie Campbell-who am I playing alongside this week. Ewan Moyes-am I going to get a game this even though I am the only centre half at the club. Ross Brown-thought I was a midfielder not a full back. Lewis Barr-what I am now a centre half. Mullen/Smith-are we full backs or midfielders. McAleer-what do I have to do to get a full game and some match practice. McShane-when am I going to get even a half chance created for me. Fash-what do I need to do to get dropped, what am I doing at this level.

Is there any cash to bring any new players or loan players in January. Has the new Spanish boy got any pals who are looking for a game.

Keep thinking every week things can't get any worse but they do. See you all next home game.

Sacking Naysmith would be a good start. Man is a laughing stock.
Can this club sink any lower?



Probably and likely under the current comedy act thats running it.

Recent results:- East Fife 1 Arbroath 5. Today:- Arbroath 2. Montrose 2

Freak results or are we that bad?????????????

Aye, crossed over to the other side and go see Hearts these days.
Beats watching that shite we get served up week after week.

Mon the Jam Tarts

no matter how bad east fife are just now,i would never change my team ,never never never. cmon the fife

I am with you Rab. So painful most of the time but could never just start supporting any other team!!!!

Mon the Jambo's😆

So if The Jambos don't produce the goods do you then change to Celtic then Chelsea then Real Madrid then................

Fair weather fan, changes team oftener than his Y's

East Fife or no one for me. It just wouldn't be the same trying to support another team.

In football little changes. At the time Claude Cecil Garfield is speaking of the club was in one of its periodic financial crises - and bottom of the league - and with its major shareholder in the slammer for offences which had everyone in the club, and in football generally, aghast. He had to be bought out or he would have been declared an "unfit person" by the SFA. Those of you who were involved at that time will remember the steps taken to mobilise enough votes to get him off the Board. To leave him as the major shareholder would have finished the club. So getting his shares bought both got shot of him and kept the club going. Sorting out the financial problem and getting a winning team on the field took a bit of time but was achieved then and will be again.

Happy New Year to all my friends at the club.
