I remember going away with Hearts to an East Fife game at the old Bayfield around 1980 and it was a mental place to visit. The locals from Methil were looking to teach us Edinburgh boys that we weren't dealing with yokels, and the police were only arresting Hearts boys. I was amazed to see a couple of cops wearing East Fife scarfs with their uniforms. Not a place for the faint hearted!
It was a Scottish cup quarter final replay in 1977, the most violent crowd I have ever been in, constant fighting in the covered enclosure people getting taken away by police and on stretchers throughout the game.
I love the lad standing outside the stadium slagging off the locals. Does he realise that he's standing in a deserted waste ground in the early hours drinking lager with just his mate?
great respect to the boy doing the big trip up north, we all know how mind numbing and soul destroying the "trip tae sainsburies" is. Never mind the horse riding, sack that, lets get the gestapo power stations up on the go !!
As an income to Methil-Buckhaven 12 years ago things are changing. The power station’s been demolished, a community campaign has succeeded in getting the railway back ( in 2023), the FIfe Energy Park and parts of the dock area have new significant business (eg Harland & Wolf) and regeneration plans ( with funding) for the River Leven have all lifted the mood. Methil- Buckhaven is still the most deprived community in FIfe and previously neglected for decades of decline. East FIfe are doing ok in the 3rd tier. Commentary could have mentioned their two Scottish League Cup as well as Scottish Cup wins - some history.
This guy is a proper football fan.
The disdain in the women's voice when she says 'cowdenbeath '🤣

Yeah, he doesn't seem the brightest. He's literally a stain within a toilet bowl
