East Fife have been impressive in these two games. New signings have improved the squad but still need another striker. Not going to get through a season with just Austin and Shepherd. i suspect EF will be due a development compensation fee for Walls which will be a stumbling block for most teams that might have been interested in him.

His last spell at Bayview was pretty uninspiring. Scored plenty goals at Inverkeithing Hillfield Swifts, and suspect that is his level now

If it is any consolation, I think the play off winner is coming from the other tie. Surprised Stirling have slumped this season given their runaway success last year

You are correct CJ, I knew I was working away in early 1990, but as if was a fourth round tie was back by the February. Horrible weather and result

That was 1991

It was a strange appointment at the time. The Crwford era was a disappointment and a fresh start was needed.. Gary Naysmith was desperate for the East Fife job, but we went for Greg. Last season we were spinning to the bottom of the league until Scot Agnew joined in January, and then a few decent results ended with us finishing a distant fourth. Agnew moved on and results and performances have not been good enough. The only saving grace this season is that Clyde have been so poor. Hopefully common sense prevails and the Campbell brothers are appointed and backed to turn the club around.

I saw DC and Leishman at a football comedy night in Dunfermline a couple of weeks ago. He is enjoying life. I don’t think he is ready to retire. The previous problem with dispersing with Greig, may have been that there was no obvious replacement. That is no longer the case, and change should be happening now before we miss out.

Crawford was the wrong appointment. Macdonald was the wrong appointment. If McCall can turn Clyde around we are on serious trouble. The Campbell brothers would be a great appointment at this time.

Watching the stream, entertaining enough game on a very heavy pitch. Good camera work, with replays, commentary excellent

Barry Ferguson incoming?

I would be very surprised if Annan don’t win this tie. From the games I have seen, they are a far better team than Clyde

He has left Raith

They switch the lights off for Friday night televised games

There is no doubt that East Fife have got their pricing badly wrong. They inflated season ticket prices and backtracked to include admission to two friendlies v Lowland Leaigue teams. This then required them to set walk up rates at a ridiculous price to try and make season ticket prices appear reasonable. That said, turn out from both home and Bonnyrigg fans was healthy for first league match at Bayview, although both sets of supporters made their feelings known about the pricing. I think the pricing will really start to bite if the team fails to complete at the upper end of the table and fans drift away with no likelihood that they will ever return. I would not blame any fan for giving Bayview a miss during current economic climate

Fair play, I did the same for Alloa games last season and didn’t bother with the stream because of the ridiculous pricing. Don’t think there will be many PAYG home fans in attendance either. At least the office staff will not be too busy selling tickets to them pesky punters, which is what the social media feed is requesting
