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

sorry but that was crap yesterday to watch it's getting poor ever game something has to change or get wrose


Using "if" almost destroys any argument but if we had taken a few of the chances created last night and won 3-1 it would have been seen as a comfortable away win in a tough SC tie. We lost last night because we didn't take our chances not because we were crap.
Against Annan we didn't lose because we were crap. We played against ten men the correct way,created many chances,but lost because we didn't take thesechances.

That said,questions need to be asked as to why we are in this position. Starting with East Stirlingshire and excepting Berwick we have played quite a lot of games where we have only had one or two attempts on goal during the whole match and it has been glaringly obvious we needed support for Fash,even more so now that he has hit a dry spell.
That problem was not fixed so inevitably we had a situation last night where we were behind and needed to beef up our attack but our only forward was on the field.
The solution was to bring on a defender who hasn't played in months and move a central defender up to support Fash. Campbell was fine in defence but nothing changed in terms of our goal scoring ability.

There may be many reasons why we have failed to fix the problem but over the season and last night in particular it has cost us dear.

Good to read a measured assessment of the current state of affairs at my old club. Fancy the manager's job?
