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.

Rix sacked

Just heard on radio. SFA does not need to make a decision now.

Brown off the hook again! Slippery as he is.

Re: Rix sacked

SFA must be breathing a huge sigh of relief now.

Re: Rix sacked

how would it go down if he applied for the Fife job!!

Re: Rix sacked

If we had a respected, competent chairman we could have gone for Jim Duffy, who has also been released...

Re: Rix sacked

On another note, Heart of Midlothian FC are now in copetition with us for the title:
Joke Club of Scottish Football!

Re: Rix sacked

romanov gives in to browns pressure

Re: Rix sacked

Could be closer to the truth than you think. Maybe why the decision by SFA was postponed?

Re: Rix sacked

Don't be so sure that J Derrick is off the hook!

My normally reliable sources tell me that Rovers have taken the opportunity to approach Rix to take over as Director of Football next season.

If the latest Romanov reject accepts the challenge Graham and oor Deek could soon be next door neighbours in the football world... could be interesting!!

Re: Rix sacked

Heart of Midlothian Football Club today announced that they have sacked all
their fans.

The Hearts support, who joined the club in 1874, were dismissed by owner
Vladimir Romanov after a series of poor results.
A statement issued on behalf of Mr Romanov, who from the end of the season
will be known as Club President, said: "We have been disappointed with the
performance of the fans. Results were not what they should have been.
The way in which some events were discussed by the paying support was
disappointing to us.
It was been made clear that the only statement that is appropriate for the
supporters to make is the mindless chanting of the words: 'I believe'.
Genuflection to the club President is also appropriate."
Mr Romanov, who from the end of next season will be known as Tsar of All
The Russias and Empress of India, added:
"I'd like to thank the Hearts support for all its hard work.
“It gave 100%, but ultimately it did not work out.
“Vladimir Romanov and the club's management felt that something had to be
done quickly.
“We owed it to our own ridiculous delusions."
He then outlined ambitious plans for the club to win the Champion's League,
lift the World Cup and put a man on Mars by 2007 - probably Stephen
Pressley.
In the interim, the support will be replaced by "caretaker fans" - cloned
members of the Romanov family who have been trained to burl scarves and ask
no questions.
A spokesman for the Hearts Supports Support Group, Mr A N Gunt-Romanov,
said: "I believe."
Disgruntled Hearts fans gathering outside Tynecastle were offered an
attractive array of one, two and three-bedroom luxury apartments from
£100,000.
