  1. Met a fellow season ticket holder in Morrisons today and he asked me how he could transfer East Fife tv from his phone to his tv. I wasn’t sure as he has a Huawei phone which I am not familiar with. He also said that a number of fellow season ticket holders do not have access to the technology required to watch the upcoming games covered by the season tickets which look increasingly unlikely to have crowds allowed.
    This got me thinking of how to rectify this and make the Club some much needed cash at this financially challenging time. Could the club open the bars in the stadium on match day and have everyone socially distanced the same as pubs. The blinds could be closed upstairs so fans can’t see the pitch. The game could then be streamed to the TVs in the lounge. This would allow season ticket holders who have no access to the required technology to see the game and it would also allow sales at the bar to help increase revenue for the Club. Would this infringe any rules ? It may also be possible to tie in with a couple of local pubs who may be able to do the same.
    Really feel for those who have put their money into the Club but will be unable to see the games - no fault of theirs or the Club who are doing a great job in these difficult times but this is maybe an idea which benefits both parties.


    I understand that Hibs corporate season ticket holders can attend the suite at Easter Road to watch streams of the away games. This is maybe something that the club could look at not only for home games but to bring in revenue every week. Sell spaces for the away games to all, and home games could be reserved for season ticket holders for free. Assuming as long as no more than 2no households per table then it’s in compliance. Sounds simple but I’m sure there are numerous hoops to jump through.
  2. Hello from a rainy Spain.
    My understanding is that Fifers for the Community are responsible for hiring out the pitch on a commercial basis and consequently are entitled to receive all hire charges-they are after all responsible for ensuring that there are funds available to replace the all - weather pitch. The club benefits by leasing the area of ground within the perimeter tp FFTC for which it receives a rental.
    I might be wrong however.


    Interesting point for your first ever post, welcome to the board!!!
    Fifers for the Community don't own the ground or the concession stands or the hospitality or the bars or the sale and preparation of tickets in fact I'm sure that "Matchdays" are pretty much sacrosanct for the Club!!!







    But I'm prepared to be corrected!!!


    Thanks for the replies. So we lose out on the minimal fee for the rental of the pitch, but we get the benefit of the finances as listed by KK. Good deal, bring on the cash.
