Big Fifer Posted September 11, 2021 Share Posted September 11, 2021 Think DY's time might be up, but regardless of that this squad really just isn't good enough. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TxRover Posted September 11, 2021 Share Posted September 11, 2021 Jesus H Christ, what the f**k is happening? After that last game it seemed to be looking up, and now DY has lost the team? Regardless, a bad day in Fife overall. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fifer67 Posted September 11, 2021 Share Posted September 11, 2021 Genuinely feel heart sorry for any East Fife fan who has made the long road west today. Our away form can only be described as a complete embarrassment. Losing 3,4,5 goals on the road is the normal these days. No professional football team should be losing 4 goals from set play headers. I have the utmost respect for the people behind the scenes at Bayview but I’m not sure they have it in them to do the righ5 thing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mon_The_Fife Posted September 11, 2021 Share Posted September 11, 2021 I’m not sure that a change of manager would change anything. The writing for this season was on the wall very early on as the squad we have assembled is nowhere near good enough. The fact that we were still scrambling for players at the end of August was a problem.Whether the board haven’t backed Young or he has failed to recruit good players remains to be seen, regardless his relatively high stock is diminishing quickly and he has a hell of a job turning this shambles around.The fact that we’ve conceded 4 set piece goals is laughable and also not surprising sums up my thoughts at the moment. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have been poor at set pieces now for a number of seasons- but this is a new low!Whilst many of us have Believed we have always needed to get a strong centre half- the change in our goalkeeping performances have also greatly contributed to this new low. There is nothing positive at all to take from yesterday. We are certainly in a relegation battle at best this year- a long season ahead….. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stevo Fife Posted September 16, 2021 Share Posted September 16, 2021 Fully expecting to get beat this weekend but if we get another pumping, then Young should do the right thing and move on. Leave it too late and we are heading straight to the basement league. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mon_The_Fife Posted September 16, 2021 Share Posted September 16, 2021 I’ve not had this level of apathy for a very long time and we’ve only played a handful of games. I fully expect another thumping. We can’t defend and can’t score, it’s not a good combination.Young’s jacket must be hanging on by a thread on that shoogly peg, and a change might do us good but the squad is very weak. We have to hope for at worst 8th place this season and somehow have 2 teams that are worse than ourselves. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Smith Posted September 16, 2021 Share Posted September 16, 2021 Darren Youngs comments today were delusional. Blaming everyone apart from himself. Why he dropped Jude Smith and Steele after them playing well is anyone’s guess. it certainly looks like he has lost the fans and the club have to react sooner rather than later before it’s too late. A day in the garden this Saturday beckons as no way am I shelling out decent cash to watch dross. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can understand the apathy/pessimism as we have been there as well, but I remember a time when we played against Stenhousemuir , who being at bottom of the league as they "can't defend/can't score", then proceeded to beat us 5-0 in Airdrie. I know your away form has been very poor for a long time, but football can be a funny old game . Obviously I hope we don't play as badly on Saturday as we did then. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Football can be a funny game but even the most optimistic East Fife fan can’t have much faith in the current manager. As has been said until he accepts responsibility for the shambolic performances then we won’t be making much progress. The same schoolboy errors at the back get made most weeks ,you would think some basic coaching would show defenders how to defend in their box. If the manager doesn’t get a reaction after last weeks humiliation then I’m afraid we’re doomed . 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best wishes I wasn’t panicking a few weeks ago when we were bottom, however after last weeks shocker I’m hoping we can’t sink any lower. However our performances on the road do not fill me with much confidence. Hope you go easy on us as I don’t want that sinking feeling I had last Saturday night. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was certainly surprised by that score when I heard it on Radio on way back from QP, as I could not see Dumbarton scoring 5 ( I know they got 2 against us so no slight intended to the Sons) . If our squad take it easy it will be too close for comfort so I will accept a win no matter how many goals. Methil away is always harder and less successful for us on most recent visits. On the DY situation I have never taken to him . 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
