    Not over reacting on this result, I agree that management will know by now who they are keeping but what worries me is the management team going to get the backing from the board to fund the new squad?

    And why would that be a worry. Think they have backed previous managers within reason of budget

    Really surprised we didn't add more to the squad before Saturday's loan deadline we are badly lacking creativity and a goal threat

    I am not sure we need more players added. We have a good pool of players and plenty young guys coming through. If there was a better game plan and a better motivational manager I'm sure it would come good

    On Saturday I would not have dropped Page,Walls or Newton.Try dropping your slow uncreative players.The midfield is to slow as are the front two.At the end of last season the manager should have identified where we could improve and made the necessary changes and that has not happened.Still needing new (younger) blood in midfield.

    You must be joking about Shepherd being slow.?

    I see it’s being reported that Stirling Albion were  very unlucky to lose to a very good Aberdeen team last night.

    We all enjoyed us , managed by Darren, beating the likes of Dundee Utd and Hearts a few seasons ago.

    Stirling sit joint top of League 1 and we are joint bottom of league 2.

    Time tends to make things clearer and reveal all. I suspect like many EF fans,Darren Young was not the problem- the Directors have made a huge mistake here-if so  who was specifically accountable for this really bad decision  ( The Chairman?).

    How can we be confident that similar bad decisions will not be made ( have been made) in the future?

    Maybe I am being unfair but it’s a question that should be aired.

    My recollection it was the pressure from fans that  got Darren sacked.

    Plus we had at least 2 central defenders on trial yesterday, 1 ex Hearts and 1 ex Cowdenbeath. 

    PS hope it is not necessary but MC Manus has in the past played Centre half.

    Personally would not be averse to Taylor Steven returning.

    Taylor Steven,.......no thanks

    For the purpose of clarity, how many coaching sessions have you observed?

    For clarity of purpose  60+ years of watching playing and coaching football. And you experience is??? If your that ignorant you can't see the comments are about improving players I suppose you will be excellent at Football manager

    Just because the chairman’s on holiday doesn’t mean we can’t appoint a new manager 

    Totally  agree ffs it's a 24 hour communication  society that's even reached Methil.  Waiting on a bloody chairman returning from holiday is more about arrogance than wanting what's best for supporters and club.  Supporters paying the dearest prices division deserve more

  8. Glad he is going. His first tenure at the club ended in a disappointing result. So was never convinced he could improve on that this time. I am afraid he is leaving us with a team of promising loan signings but little experience.  Hopefully we will look for an experienced manager now. Much as I liked Greg McDonald as a player don't think he is the answer. Nor is Gary I'm afraid. However gets the job will have a task to get some experience in to support the young players

    Considering recent events maybe we should start referring to Love and Wallace as the Kray Twins.

    What a shame you included Love  alongside Wallace. I thought Love played well for Dumbarton.  But I suppose Wallace has that capability to bring players and clubs into his parasitic lifestyle He is a legend in his own head who will never change.

    Reckon it had to be for dissent. I didn't see anything else. I did't even see the red card come out and had no idea if it was for a Stranraer or East Fife player initially.

    I was right  behind where linesman was standing  and heard him speaking to ref. He said punch on East Fife player by Stranraer  20 red card red card

    Hows sam denham doing?. Lovely kid and in my opinion good footballer who could potentially go back up levels.

    Playing very well. I'm off the opinion  both Sam and Aaron  Steele our centre backs both have the capability to play at higher levels. They are getting their chance at East Fife to develop and they are taking it

    The £200,000, if that's the money from James Anderson was to be help clubs meet the costs from covid testing & other associated costs through the pandemic, at a time when clubs were at risk of going to the wall due to no gate money, not to be used for player transfers, strengthening the squad etc. What happens with any surplus, I don't know. Does he get it back?

    Our board was much lauded at the time for having the foresight of business interuption insurance, (one of only 2 clubs iirc which had this) which should've protected us from the costs of the pandemic, has this been paid yet?

    Why would we be paying an insurance company £200,000?

    The two clubs who had the insurance. Dundee got small amount.  East Fife with slightly different policy got nothing from business interruption insurance

    Surprisingly the £200k covid insurance money hasn’t been spent on strengthening the squad. The yearly balance sheets will make interesting reading as to where this has gone.

    Gone to the insurance company. Was clearly stated at Q&A session we received zilch
