We're back with another episode of Glory Days of Gold, the East Fife and Scottish football podcast recorded across two continents, although only one this episode!
East Fife came away with a hugely important win over league leaders Peterhead on Saturday. A win that sees them move to within one point of top spot. Surely there's nothing going to stop their promotion push now?!
Doug, Gordon, and Aaron are back to pick over the bones of that match, the team's recent form, the standout performances across the board, and look at the lie of the land in Scottish League 2.
And the Pirie takeover of the show is now complete - theme song, sponsor read, and now hosting. What a family! Just make sure you listen right to the end of this one.

We're back with another episode of Glory Days of Gold, the East Fife and Scottish football podcast recorded across two continents.
East Fife have been flying the last two matches. Two victories, nine goals scored, no goals conceded from open play, and most importantly, playing as a team with everyone contributing. Michael, Gordon, Doug, and Aaron are back to look at the last two games and what it means for the season to come. Too early for the parade planning? Is a league and cup double on the cards? Are we an injury or two away from it being a whole different story?
We delve into all of that, look at the excellent depth we've seen the past few games, the outstanding form of Fash, and a lot more. Plus there's still time to look ahead to Scotland kicking off the new Nations League campaign and we chat with Ryan Gauld about his first senior call-up to the national team.

Episode 130 - Glory Days of Gold (Slow and Steady)

We're back with another episode of Glory Days of Gold, the East Fife and Scottish football podcast recorded across two continents.
The new Scottish season is well and truly up and running and after perhaps getting a little bit carried away with not conceding a goal in preseason friendlies and the first three League Cup matches, conceding nine over two games against St Johnstone and Elgin brought everyone back down to earth with a bump! But it's good to temper expectations and it's been a slow and steady start to East Fife's league campaign. Nothing too fancy, nothing too exciting, but getting the results with three wins in eight days and sitting in a good position in the tabe a few games in with some key tests to come to end the month.
Michael, Gordon, and Andrew are back to look at the season so far, the key performers for East Fife to date, and what help might be needed to take the next step we need to finally get back out of League 2. Plus we cast our eyes over the rest of the division and try and figure out who we should be keeping a careful eye on in what is shaping up to be a very tight season with a lot of parity amongst the top teams.

East Fife are back with a bang and so is the podcast! Undefeated in preseason without giving up a goal and a 3-0 win over Championship side Morton in the League Cup, and fans are optimistically looking ahead to what may lie in store for the black and gold in the 2024/25 season.
Michael, Lee, Gordon, and Aaron do just that to, look at Dick Campbell's offseason additions, and what we saw in that cup win at the weekend. Plus we look back at Scotland's woeful Euros and ask, what's next?

We're back with another episode of Glory Days of Gold, the East Fife and Scottish football podcast recorded across two continents.
What a week it's been since the last podcast! East Fife put in a poor performance in a 1-0 loss at Elgin City, a display that led to manager Greig McDonald walking away from the job after just over 15 months in charge. 24 hours later his replacement was announced - lower league managerial legend Dick Campbell.
Campbell's appointment has filled the Fife fanbase with enthusiasm, excitement, and real hope for the future, buoyed by recent news that the proposed fan takeover of the club has taken a major step forward. Is this the turning point in the club's long and illustrious history that we've waited for and feared may never come? However everything plays out, there's a definite feelgood factor today amongst the black and gold faithful.
Michael, Lee, Gordon, and Andrew are back to chat about a dramatic few days down Bayview way.

East Fife's unbeaten start to the new year came to a crashing halt with an insipid 3-0 loss to Spartans on Tuesday night, leaving them hoping for a midtable finish at best with three months of the season still to play.
Michael, Doug, Aaron, and Andrew are back to chat about the match and our thoughts on the current state of the club, and future strategies, as the next two years feel massive for the direction the club takes.
