I also noticed the under 20s are also have a friendly away to Kirkcaldy & dysart fc at Penman park according to their website on mon 21st June, with the under 20s not played for a year would be also good to see them play together. Be interesting to take note of those who were drafted in squad as a sub along with Newton through last season see how the rest of them do ahead of their league this term etc..
like Rbon stated I would imagine if fans aren’t back in June then streams will still be provided for both teams within the football club competitively or least highlights.

If Kevin Smith is club captain and presumably does not play every game, who will be team captain.?
Chris Higgins is perfect if smith not playing but then your looking around at Ross Davidson etc...

Just now, 7 Eleven said:
Am I reading this differently? This statement doesn’t state that Collins has been released, just put on the transfer list. Does that mean if he cannot find another club he will remain with the EF for his final year of his contract or has he actually been released?
Probably has been placed on the transfer list given the fact he tried it out at stenny and they never signed him on a permanent contract. But it’s probably good for both parties in that sense, hopefully he can find a club at his level.
good luck to the lad, it just hasn’t worked out.

Probably for the best for both parties that TC left to gain regular games elsewhere he didn’t have the best season with us and didn’t do much at stenny other than impact sub. Means that we have a space to bring someone else in as a striker if needed or onloan like Jack.

Is the Steele deal a 1 or 2 year deal ?
by sounds of things it’s probably a 12 month contract unlike the deals given to Collins, McGuigan, McManus etc.
I actually thought he played well out of the loanees we had when he came in for the final 4/5 games towards season ends according to transfermarkt he can play left back, centre back other words he’s very versatile among the back line. Thought he was outstanding at home v Dumbarton looked good on the ball and scored in that match though we’ve played him at right back and at centre back when Murdoch, Higgins and Watson was missing through suspensions/injuries likewise with cammy Dow he’s only 19 years of age still room for potential with this laddy and very surprised he’s been released by saints but I would like us to sign a more experienced pro for both the defence in regarding bringing another centre back and left back in.
Think we’re probably two or three players away from assembling a side for the forthcoming season but.

I thought he was starting to look okay at L1 level nearer the end of the season. does concern me that i don't think he'll be a prolific goalscorer at this level though. Which is something we missed once Hamilton went back to Livingston.
Yeah we lacked goals at airdrie, Clyde, Dumbarton when we saw him though his best game was when he came on against Forfar and scored. I’m hoping to prove wrong and giving the guy a full season with pre-season training may help him having came from Shire.
though I’ll still have him ahead of Collins but my front two would be MM and Waldo with Kev from the bench, I know TC has another year left I was hoping with the BSC mob taken over at Stenny he would go there permanently but like at Ef he struggled to make impact there though if he’s staying I’m happy give both guys a chance but not my starter unless we have or carry injuries, suspension etc.
with the squad wise I’m hoping we can bring in a goalie, certainly a left back (probably going back to having GN was the last one and Penrice!), centre back for Watson!, would like see Steele back onloan just that he was giving game time and still young and versatility in defence for that reason and maybe a midfielder or two but with Jack Healy upto three appearance like see another newton type there and cammy Dow I was impressed with at forfar not so much at sauchie before his loan spell at Phil McGuire team has helped it since there’s no u20s, decent crosser aswell on cammy. But I’m looking forward to new season maybe a full season with fans of course we’ll fingers crossed!

We’re also forgetting Aiden McLaughlin who signed as a first team squad player just back in September, think his deal was only for a year but he hasn’t been mentioned as one of the released players!!!
Think he still qualifies for the u20s squad.

I’m gutted Brett left out those two like many have said, but to have none manager feels the freshness to bring in new players over the summer ie goalies then I’m for it.
I’m sure like 7 11 has said we won’t be playing without one so not end of the world. Though I have to admit Brett was my favourite goalie since Willie McCulloch/Jim Butter was at the club.

looks like Jordan hart is away going by tweets also. I would have kept Janny sad to see him go I’m sure both will find a club.
As for the poty that was amazing put together by the media team, fabulous stuff I have to say.

Quite happy with Young staying. I see some chat about Kevin Smith should have been our manager by someone on Facebook. Based on what? Zero coaching or managerial experience, he may very well become a good manager if he wants to but now is not the time for a rookie manager to come in.
I would certainly take Mercer back, a solid right back if we lose Murdoch. He didn’t do well at Falkirk, but that club is a shambles so difficult for anyone to go there and have a good season.
Absolutely agree with this post MTF, I also quite pleased that we have stick to Young for another season or two given how this season was stopped start due to the pandemic and were still not out the woods yet with Glasgow in tier 3 still.
It would be mental to give Kevin the job as young is building something here and we have still to reach our goal which is play offs or more in his footballing managerial career. I know young has had three seasons to get us there and we have been 6th/7th or short than the goal set I still think he has more to give like he got Albion Rovers to their highest position and we have still to reach ours me thinks.As for players returning quite like the idea if Murdo was to move on which I hope not as murdo’s been solid to see Mercer come in I would also like see another two strikers along with a midfield since we’ve got short of bell and Agnew- either in the mind of millar or McManus strikes my mind from Stranraer since they fell short of archiving promotion this year and hoping we sort our left side problems this year. As for goalie do we need two top goalies? I certainly wouldn’t loose sleep if one went and the other stayed and I really hope Brett stays out them two.
Though be interesting see what happens after tonight’s awards see who’s left and who’s going, let’s hope the covid is all gone once the euros arrive so we can have a full crack at league 1 behind supporters at bayview again I’m certainly missing bayview it’s been a year or so I’m buzzing for the new season.0 -

Heard that the players will be at Bayview on Saturday for an end of season get together/ farewell.
Hopefully the first part of the jigsaw ,ie managerial,will be resolved.DY has already stated that he will be speaking to some players and has identified new players for next season.This would seem to indicate that he is staying.
Both the Falkirk and Alloa jobs are up for grabs and he may consider that he could be in the running,especially Alloa,where he was team captain.
The last thing the BOD would want is to offer him a contract only for him to immediately move elsewhere.A bit like Barry Smith moving to Raith mid close season.
Personally I hope he does stay.
Thank for the update Sammy.
Yeah I had the feeling the manager may also look at other jobs potentially with Alloa coming back down but really hope he can stay on as Ef manager.
With the season now finished be interesting to see who goes or stays.0 -
The team selection backfired for us big time to tonight though we have won once away all season so hopefully have a reaction at forfar given it’s now every Saturday. Only positive was McKinnon was exceptional in midfield the only one in my 3-2-1 hopeful it’s in either Lee, Michaels or Dougs rating at the weekend as tonight result a lot worser than the previous two games with a chance of being third with this game in hand but I’m praying Airdrie, Mighty Mo or Thistle slip up in landed a po though need pick up points ourselfs crucially as Clyde and Dumbarton are catching up and fighting for their lives, all to play for with four remaining before the spilt even at that if a team who does worse in top four spilt loses and the best team in bottom spilts wins the leagues much change in terms of placing too so let’s go again saturday.

We were due to play Dumbarton on Sat 17th but as we are in the next round of the cup the only available date for Clyde to play them is Thur 15th.
Ano mental clubs don’t have a say, it what pleases the top bosses tbf first time around for postponement matches in a short season and clubs have to follow suit but surely if Clyde, ef or Dumbarton has a free midweek instead this two midweek games in two days then surely they can sit down and work a better option for clubs and players fitness then they should ask for it to put forward for a later date but it’ll be too hard in SPFL case to do and see that option given Scottish cup and 22 game league one and two to finish for may.

congratulations to Morton in the next round, good game to watch and Morton won in extra time when we were tired and we had no strikers on the park after 90mins was laughable to see Morton miss about 10+ shots before one of the Morton players scored a goal all season to win the tie on a different day without the fixture pile up things would have been different both teams look confirmable for a draw. in efs eyes losing a equaliser to a penalty in a box in 90mins full of bodies we were unlock by not seeing it out in the end, but footballs a funny old game.
Overall happy this game out the way given we have to go again in two days time, hopefully we meet again real soon

Surely we can now have a bit of common sense from the SPFL and move our game on Thuraday back a few day's to the Tuesday to the play Sat/Tues for the next two weeks to ease the pressure on part time players bodies and minds

Hopefully still got room for a defender aswell
I would of liked to have kept fash for the season ends aswell as add Spence & brown. Still think Dunlop is good as cover hence we only signed miller because there’s no left sided player in the squad.

Going be one those tight affair games as always against Cove!
hopefully we play better than the first game up @ Balmoral Stadium and young newton had to carry our midfield as we had Denholm & Dunsmore sent off.

2 hours ago, Its not only a game said:
Feel we will go on one of our runs( a good one!). Thought we were excellent yesterday- through out the team.Yeah feels like we need go on a wee winning run again if there’s any chance of finishing (I keep saying this on here, I sound like a broken record amongst the e.fife support) ABOVE FIFTH! but we are due a winning run though.
big games will be the ones coming up Cove @ home and away to Montrose two days later where these teams are tight considering we were poor at Balmoral stadium. But yesterday was our first away win of the campaign even though first game back from leagues suspension and the easiest away game I’ve watched us play which was great and the whole team played well and game game time to players such as Swanson, Dunsmore etc.. see 2/3 loanees given action towards the end. All in all great to see may it continue.

Is it likely we'll hold onto Fash until the end of the season, should the lowland/highland leagues become null/voided?
You would think so given they aren’t starting anytime soon but we also have Sean brown a bit unknown to (us) supporters and we know fash is capable of doing it no respect to kelty and the ambition to get in SPFL as are other teams in their shoes are. But I’m really excited with the recruitment and we are lucky to watch him in the four games he’s required to play for (us).

Add a Scottish Cup tie v Dunfermline/Morton on 3 April to those dates.
We will have three home games that week with Clyde on 1st, Cup game on Saturday and Thistle on Tuesday then after the 6th its a back to back away game in that week. That will be interesting, lots of games to get through but like Kk said above it’ll be the same for most teams plus we have got those two games in hand which I think is the reason we are playing Clyde and Dumbarton (Thursday’s) from before the campaign was suspended.
I think whoever we get Pars/Morton will be exciting definitely winninable given we were drawn at home with the depth the squad is.
