RiG Posted August 12, 2020 Share Posted August 12, 2020 So getting to a match at (New) Bayview is one of the final few grounds I have left to tick off the list. I've no faith that we'll be back inside grounds even in a couple of months but it looks like a well placed step ladder may allow you to view the game from behind one of the goals? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah it is. Some renaming of certain areas of the ground since we last played you guys (over 20 years ago!) and of course we've had the stands up behind the goals since then. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gordon EF Posted August 12, 2020 Share Posted August 12, 2020 It'll be good to see wee Robbo again. He'll always be an East Fife legend for that game up in Aberdeen. I'll always remember having my head in my hands on the way up when he came on the radio giving it "we're playing 4-4-2 and we're going to have a go at them". 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LiamA Posted August 12, 2020 Share Posted August 12, 2020 We won at Inverness the first tie we played there without having a single shot on target! Paul Cherry scored our goal with a fantastic diving header 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Getting Inverness in the League Cup now means that there is only Two Clubs we haven’t played this Century!!! We last played ICT in Season 1998-99, it just means we now have only Celtic and Hibs left to drag into the 2000’s having last played them in Seasons 1983-84 and 1989-90 respectively!!! Maybe we’ll get lucky in the next round of this Cup or in Scottish this Season!!! When did you play Cove? I had a quick look online but could not see anything. Obviously, you will play them this season but could not find a previous meeting. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LauraEFFC Posted August 12, 2020 Share Posted August 12, 2020 Full Article from the club website In August 2017 Fifers For The Community (FFTC) assumed responsibility for the maintenance and management of the 3G pitch and introduction of community use at Bayview. Our first winter immediately highlighted that use of the floodlights increased ten-fold and after the lease was the major overhead cost for the Charity. The heavy electricity bills combined with the cost and limited availability of replacement bulbs was a major issue which FFTC and East Fife Football Club (EFFC) decided to address.Six months ago both parties started to examine the options available and opened discussions with Zero Waste Scotland (ZWS). ZWS launched the project by carrying out an energy assessment to establish the benefit of installing LED floodlights at Bayview. The potential cost reduction was significant so with the support of ZWS the project was put out to competitive tender and a preferred supplier selected.From there we started the process of identifying possible sources of funding and we were delighted to secure a heavily discounted, long term and low interest loan from the Energy Saving Trust. This alone left us with a difficult decision considering the past and future financial constraints caused by COVID-19.It was at this stage that a white knight arrived. EFFC and FFTC have previously received enormous support from the Scottish Football Partnership (SFP) and once again they supported all groups involved at Bayview. Following an application by EFFC the SFP awarded a significant grant which turned this into a financially viable project.Installation of the new LED floodlighting will begin on 22nd August of this year and will exceed SFA Bronze Level standard. Repayment of the loan will be made by FFTC from savings made on electricity usage during community use ensuring there is no financial burden to EFFC. The floodlights will become part of the fabric of Bayview Stadium and as such EFFC will be responsible for maintenance of the system which carries a lengthy warranty.This has been a tremendous combined effort between FFTC and EFFC who would like to thank Zero Waste Scotland, the Energy Saving Trust and the Scottish Football Partnership for their support throughout. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
