Amazingly, around a third of the East of Scotland League season has come and gone already. It seemed like only yesterday that many of us were mooching around on a Saturday afternoon missing our football fix. A look at how Fife sides are faring is now up

Five boys from Markinch in Fife went to a football match on this day in 1971. They never came home. Peter Easton 13, Mason Philip 14, Bryan Todd 14, Ronald Paton 14 & Douglas Morrison 15. Remembering them and the other 61 who never returned from watching the game we love #ibrox

Shippy Ultras. There may only be 6 of them, but they had a drum AND a loudhailer, which I suspect could be heard as far away as Methil. Great support of your team today guys 👏

Today's blast from the past. Queue to get into Stark's Park in March 1956 for a Scottish Cup tie v Partick Thistle. Crowd was 18,264 with Raith winning 2-1. Rovers lost in a semi-final replay against Hearts. Those two games at Easter Road attracted 58,448 and 54,233. Astonishing

What an utterly disgraceful series of events, which ultimately cost a town its football club. Now those involved are patting each other on the backs as they've decided to go ahead with it after all. Too late for Rosyth FC, but who cares when it all comes down to making 💰💰

Big win for Dunfermline, putting them 8pts clear of Falkirk. Pedestrian first half by the Pars with the Bairns much slicker. Different team 2nd half, came out the traps, couple of close efforts, then 2 goals in 8 mins killed it. Tod the 🌟. Great to see East End full again

Huge pat on the back to Raith Rovers for taking this match on and for putting out a 1st team squad against their EoSFL neighbours. Kirkcaldy's average gate last season was 79, so to see 570 come along is just amazing and will hugely benefit the club. Well done to all involved 👏
