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.

Next season's kit

The new kit for next season looks pretty cool with the all yellow with black trims, looks like another kit inspired by our kits from years ago.

Re: Next season's kit

I was lucky enough (or maybe just pissed!) but I got my hands on the prototype top in the auction last night at the player of the year so and I can confirm that it is indeed smart as fek! Lol

Re: Next season's kit

Just to clarify, we will be playing in our traditional colours of Black and Gold next season. Yellow will not feature.

Re: Next season's kit

Is that actually East Fife's kit for next season or is this some kind of joke?

Re: Next season's kit

That is horrible. Why do we need to change anyway, we've got a perfectly good one right now and we've only got that at the start of this season.

Re: Next season's kit

Just to reiterate...

That IS fucking horrible!!!

We finally get the stripes back after years of waiting and a decent "brand" as well and they're chucked after a season, no happy!!!

It's just a generic "yellow" strip, if it wasn't for the badge, it could be a Livingston or even an Alloa Kit!!!

Shite!!!

It is our kit, the M&H logo will be replaced.

Re: Next season's kit

I actually don't mind the kit, it's something different to normal and does look like it will be a good kit to wear as apposed to the rubbish DOE kit that we had that was thick and heavy.
Then the under armour fiasco last year completely rules out us using them again as a supplier.

Do think there should be some sort of stripes though however it's not essential I would say.

Re: Next season's kit

That's bogging - and yellow. Why is it yellow? Why is it so difficult?

Re: Next season's kit

I like the under armour brand best kit makers we've had in donks, our tops can be easily washed weekly if your me unlike tops before where logo's start getting ruin and top's get destory after a few washes. Also be shame to loose M&H sponsor if they are replaced no had a decent sponsor since the season we wore cogen energy pity company's only take 12months with us and we have to change every season don't mind trying something new but the club could of came up with a few options on the new kit so it's a win, win on what everyone likes and dislike and club can keep their paying customers happy and club happy in making a profit in the club shop just an idea for the future lads. Whatever it is we all support the team no matter what.

Re: Next season's kit

OK yeah. Good luck convincing East Fife fans to cough up approximately £35-45 on that monstrosity of a "kit". I probably wouldn't spend more than a tenner on it. Where are the stripes and why, OH WHY is it yellow?! Who are the people left in charge of the kit design? Do they know anything about East Fife?

Re: Next season's kit

If they have to pick an off the shelf shirt from Joma why not pick this one:

No chance in the world would you be shelling out £40 on that.

Surely a wind up! Yellow goalie/training top perhaps.

then I can cope with that.

Looks more like the second one.

Note in both cases that you can buy that shirt for £8.63. Including VAT

ETA - want this as an away kit though.

Re: Next season's kit

So. That kit. It was a joke yeah? I mean, surely no one would deliberately order the wrong colour when the right one is also available?

Guys?

Re: Next season's kit

I hate everything about the proposed new home kit. It's absolutely rotten. Whoever chose it clearly isn't an EF fan. I really do like that white kit though and would love for it to be the away kit for next season.

Re: Next season's kit

I see that the new Livingston kit has been released and its the same as ours. Maybe Rankine got a discount for bulk buying.

Knew it was Wankine's fault, Hope we won't draw with livi in any cup this season.

Re: Next season's kit

With the draw for the sponsor's for this year's top we have to wait after the 11th July before our Joma yellow kit is out I take it do we have any sponsor's interested. I like see the white top as that shown above that dumbarton had and wore with yellow and black strip across time to see a change of away kit I think. Was this the reason we didn't get the under armour tops to the same time last summer behind other clubs released had to play friendly in last season's kits and announced still think the club should have shown a few kits to the fans either at the AGM meeting and on club website as a poll vote to pick out to be our tops in the future and have a vote a say in the club how it's run and supported keep its customers and club happy relationship. Kit suppliers have advance to get us ready for pre-season and season before July and ask for sponsors before in future that's the only downside but anything else am looking forward to saturday.

Are you Nick The Trialist for the English Grammer team???? Could I make head nor tail of what you were trying to say in your post. Is there an explanatory leaflet to follow???

Re: Next season's kit

New kit sponsors has been drawn today as 0zone Cleaning Services, Alex Barclay and Mr. Mechanic as east fife's kit sponsors. I hope to see our kit soon and looks like we are having a new away kit as mainly purple coulor but with black and white hoop across the shoulder I haven't got a picture to show but herd that's what it'll be.

Just a change same will go for the purple kit, I see the sponsor draw is only for the home top according to the east fife website will they be sponsors for the away kit that's new tae? Like the home sponsor logo though wouldn't mind having the same for away kit.

Re: Next season's kit

http://www.thefootballnation.co.uk/joma-copa-football-shirt/

^ this is what we'll miss for the home top maybe for next season unless we change kit supplier once again, pretty much think the violent not purple with white and black trim at the top will be seller once they arrive and 0-zone sponsors get added, I noticed you can get these on here for 11 quid bargain.

Defo purple kit for me, stick yer livi style kit up yer hole.

Re: Next season's kit

I keep checking this section hoping to read that the kits are in. I called down this morning to ask for an update and the fella told me that they are waiting to hear from them anyday about the kits but doesn't seeing it being this week.

Looks more like gold to me. I don't mind the odd season of not having stripes but we could have got something a bit more creative. From 1970 until the early 80's we didn't wear stripes at all and that early 70's kit is now seen as a bit iconic. Mind you the orange horrors that followed it certainly were anything but iconic!

Re: Next season's kit

Just called and was told they are hoping the kid will be available for sale this weekend but still waiting for confirmation.

Re: Next season's kit

Was told replia kit will be cheaper this season , and hope fans will buy more ? Lets wait and see

Re: Next season's kit

OK, I'll admit, it looks a lot better in real life than it appeared in the original picture.

But I think black socks would be better, unless the white ones are the away ones and we had to wear them to avoid a clash with Falkirk.

Re: Next season's kit

as we're still in mid-january, was wondered what our next kits will be as we seem to have different kits each seasons. Mind you i wouldn't mind keeping the purple liked away top or have what dumbarton have with a white top with black and gold trim lines across the front as shown above though and ask Joma/sportswear for our colours with black and gold strips but ill wait until nearer the summer.

Re: Next season's kit

How about a black and gold striped top, white shorts, black socks with gold and white at the top.

It's a bit radical but worth a punt I'd say.
