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.

Language?

What used to be an enjoyable read with the different points of view posted in it- this forum, has now become a chore. C'mon people, please try a wee bit harder to be understood and at the same time, try and write something sensible instead of the drivel that seems to have become the norm?

Re: Language?

Drivel??? On this forum????

Re: Language?

Not your posts I hasten to add Igor. Be honest though and look at some of the posts and they just are not worthy of this forum.

Re: Language?

Have to agree that a lot of the posts on here are drivel and do not make much sense,that is after trying to fathom what they mean.

Re: Language?

I put it down to the poor standard of English teachers nowadays.

Re: Language?

We need more arid pedants.

Re: Language?

I know I'm going to take some stick for this but here goes.

If you want to have decent debate on this forum then bring back Derrick Brown. He was the one man that could bring out the best of debate from the fans.

Okay so I accept that it was because everyone hated him, but grudgingly you have to admit he did create debate.

Re: Language?

A couple of years ago, was at an East Fife v unwashed derby ar Bayview, the one we got 2 sent off in and lost 3 something. Anyway, all the usual suspects around me were kicking off, language was a bit 'robust' shall we say. There was this wee boy, about 5 I think, with his Dad and Grandad. He kept looking round round at everybody up the back of the stand every time a decision went against us. I remember the grandad turning round to the dad and saying 'aye the laddie will be getting an education the day..'! I could imagine him going to his mum later that day and asking what a 'fucking cheating, dirty, bastarding cunt' was lol! He's probably on here now...
