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.

Fancy Dress Express Train to Montrose 29/04

Only Right minded true East Fife fans need apply, any so called supporters with attitude look elsewhere!

The Fancy Dress BURGER Express Scotrail Special will run on 29/04/06 times to be confirmed but 11.10 from Edinburgh most likely.Upgrade to First Class essential in order that we maintain the standards we have become accustomed to.

Let me know who is up for it. Fancy dress a must, no more Scooby Doos though, 3 is more than enough!
Chicken Fajitas welcome as well as ordinary Chickens!

£10 return should cover it.

Re: Fancy Dress Express Train to Montrose 29/04

Im curious, whats the jackanory with first class, how come you get it at a reasonable price?

Re: Fancy Dress Express Train to Montrose 29/04

I think I might maintain my street cred, by going second class from Arbroath, whilst suripticiously (sp) flicking the vickies at you from behind my can of McEwans Export.
I may, or may not be, dressed as a chicken...

"Only Right minded true East Fife fans need apply, any so called supporters with attitude look elsewhere!"

Oh how nice of you to praise your fellow comrades in such a away!

Re: Fancy Dress Express Train to Montrose 29/04

My sarcasm may be lost on those who don't know me Martin.

Ways and means Stewart.

We'll all be in fancy dress Angus, would be a shame to miss the opportunity to pull the chicken out again!

Re: Fancy Dress Express Train to Montrose 29/04

I don't know if i'm right minded but I'll go anyway!

Re: Fancy Dress Express Train to Montrose 29/04

'pull the chicken out again'????? now that would be fowl

Re: Fancy Dress Express Train to Montrose 29/04

I'm up for it.

Re: Fancy Dress Express Train to Montrose 29/04

Oh dear, what to wear, what to wear.

Re: Fancy Dress Express Train to Montrose 29/04

What!! You mean that you lot haven't been in fancy dress all season? Jees oh!!! Pity I can't be there to see the real thing!

Re: Fancy Dress Express Train to Montrose 29/04

Anyone have any idea what they are going as yet?

Re: Fancy Dress Express Train to Montrose 29/04

I am going as a Chairman

Re: Fancy Dress Express Train to Montrose 29/04

I heard that Eugene was going dressed as Padington bear but couldn't find a marmalade sandwich

Re: Fancy Dress Express Train to Montrose 29/04

Wish I knew the standard costume for a right minded person was! Saying that, if I was right minded or right thinking whatever he said - I would know. Damn.

Re: Fancy Dress Express Train to Montrose 29/04

I refuse to take orders from that woman

Re: Fancy Dress Express Train to Montrose 29/04

Is Derrick going on the train as a clown or would that not be regarded as fancy dress?

I suppose going as a Chairman is a fanciful idea seen as he is masquerading as one at the moment.

Re: Fancy Dress Express Train to Montrose 29/04

"I heard that Eugene was going dressed as Padington bear but couldn't find a marmalade sandwich "

Not quite true. I did find a marmalade sandwich but ate it cos there were no pies.

Re: Fancy Dress Express Train to Montrose 29/04

12 tkts booked. So far confirmed are Myself and That woman, Colin Montgomerie, Letter writer to row Z, Window_banger,Plod,Papa G, Baby G.

4 more needed. Veggie, Stu the Blue,Colin and Olympian are you guys up for it?

Re: Fancy Dress Express Train to Montrose 29/04

Seemingly, Veggie would rather spend the day with the English.....

Re: Fancy Dress Express Train to Montrose 29/04

He probably got a bit scared when he saw the state of you lot last Saturday. I obviously do not include myself in that statement!!

Re: Fancy Dress Express Train to Montrose 29/04

Stewart,

Put me and Colin down for the train!!

Just need to talk Colin into going as the pink panther now.

Re: Fancy Dress Express Train to Montrose 29/04

Was anyone in a state last Saturday ? I don't really remember !!

Unfortunately the rumours are true, I'll be in middle engerlund next week and won't be back in time. Hopefully there'll be photos, or even better, video footage...

Re: Fancy Dress Express Train to Montrose 29/04

Outfit ordered

Re: Fancy Dress Express Train to Montrose 29/04

mines it ordered too!!



:D

Re: Fancy Dress Express Train to Montrose 29/04

That's the hospitality booked for us all now. They look forward to welcoming us and have no objections to the fancy dress turn out!

Be on your best behaviour now!

Mike Flett - I've got the contact details if you want to book your bus load. There is space left for 25.

Re: Fancy Dress Express Train to Montrose 29/04

Costume arrived today, now just need the beer and we're sorted!

Re: Fancy Dress Express Train to Montrose 29/04

Ladyfan - the correct costume for a right-minded person would seem to involve a swastika armband and a very small moustache. Whether or not it would suit you is another matter!

Re: Fancy Dress Express Train to Montrose 29/04

I tawt I taw a puddy tat.

Can you tell what it is yet?

Re: Fancy Dress Express Train to Montrose 29/04

Onlooker - I think Papa G has that costume covered

Re: Fancy Dress Express Train to Montrose 29/04

hahahahahhahahahaha!!! fantastic mike!

Re: Fancy Dress Express Train to Montrose 29/04

Kryptonite, lois lane, the daily planet, a farm, obscene dress sense, jet black hair, ability to fly, abilty to shoot fire bolts from his eyes, see right through people, SUPER speed.


Any guesses?

Re: Fancy Dress Express Train to Montrose 29/04

Gordon Gilbert?

Re: Fancy Dress Express Train to Montrose 29/04

Close.....


Its Jimmy nairn

Re: Fancy Dress Express Train to Montrose 29/04

Is it a janitors outfit? You might not be allowed in with a brush!

Re: Fancy Dress Express Train to Montrose 29/04

Best take the brush to clean up after Derrick when he sees you all there. That's if he turns up!!

Re: Fancy Dress Express Train to Montrose 29/04

Surely he wouldn't miss Baikies first game in charge and the last game of the season! It would be a shame to have been a bigger East Fife supporter than us only to let himself down in the last few weeks.

Re: Fancy Dress Express Train to Montrose 29/04

EH EH EH EH CALM DOWN!!!!! CALM DOWN!!! ARE YOU TELLING ME TO CALM DOWN!!!!

Re: Fancy Dress Express Train to Montrose 29/04

Re: Fancy Dress Express Train to Montrose 29/04

I wonder how long it will take Vander to find out that this thread runs into two pages?

Re: Fancy Dress Express Train to Montrose 29/04

About a minute northern boy.

I'm afraid I got the looks in the family and ma sis got the BRIANS, which is a bit worrying.

Re: Fancy Dress Express Train to Montrose 29/04
