Pars fans can still give Cowden money without having to visit Cowdenbeath - bank details below..

Dunfermline Athletic's nearest rivals have created an opportunity for Pars fans to assist their club by supporting another. Cowdenbeath have agreed that for every Dunfermline Athletic fan who pays to go to their home match against Livingston on Tuesday 9th April, they will reduce the outstanding amount due to them.
Dunfermline Athletic FC are due Cowdenbeath FC £4200. Clarification is being sought and DAFC fans will be advised which turnstiles to use if they decide to go along to this game. Cowdenbeath must be thanked for this opportunity to reduce the debt due to them. We only need a few hundred fans to go and that would clear the debt - but if we get more fans at that game than needed to clear the debt then DAFC have been promised the excess back.
Note: Dunfermline Athletic do not have a game that night since their fixture against Falkirk was brought forward to Wednesday 27th March at East End Park, kick off 7.45pm
If fans would like to contribute rather than going to the game, they can make payments by BACS system to Cowdenbeath's account no. is 00257927 with sort code 80-08-09 quoting "PARS" in the reference box to identify such transactions.

It always gets to me this sort of debt, remember all the shit when the Rovers would not give the pars tickets to sell, Its not their money to spend, its not a Debt or loan, some one somewhere has decided to steal Cowdenbeaths money for their own good, it is theft. Its like some old dear nicking the christmas club money and getting jailed for it. Leaving the family (pars fans) to square it up. To me this is a criminal offence that should be investigated by the police straight away, its very different from running up corporate debt. Masterton should be jailed preferably with a 6ft 8in lady boy called Nigella.

The following is the latest message from Cowdenbeath with Dunfermline fans to use the Chapel Street turnstiles.

Administration of Dunfermline Athletic FC
The club will rank as an unsecured creditor in the administration of Dunfermline Athletic FC for the sum of £4121. The administrator Bryan Jackson of BDO has now asked us to submit our claim. We are pleased to report that Dunfermline fans have sent in funds of around £600 to our club in order to help their club honour this debt. One fan indeed sent us a cheque for £500. Cowdenbeath FC much appreciates the actions of these Pars fans. In addition, with the assistance of our good friends at Dunfermline Jim Leishman and Kenny Arnott, if all goes to plan we will host some Pars fans at the match v Livingston with any gate money received via this initiative going towards meeting the outstanding debt. Jim and Kenny have both provided help to Cowdenbeath in the past.
To be clear, the process is that Cowdenbeath FC will rank for the full sum due to the Administrator. The monies raised via these other avenues will be set off as security pro tem pending resolution of the claim. We anticipate that we will then only receive so many pence in the pound towards the outstanding debt due to CFC from the Administration process. Once that has concluded, we can apply these other funds to defray at least some of the loss. In a case where we actually were fully paid via the Administrator or ended up with more funds in total (unlikely as it may be) than are due to us then we would make arrangements to repay the Dunfermline supporters by some suitable means.
Dunfermline fans should enter via the Chapel Street turnstiles so they can be separately accounted for.
We of course are also due at East End Park shortly for what is Fife’s oldest derby fixture. Let’s see a strong Cowden support. Doubtless there will be a bit of banter but we have been fast friends and deadly rivals now for 128 years. Fans may sometimes sing that they hate the Pars but hey that’s just fitba. Fifers, especially those of us from mining stock here in Cowdenbeath, set great store in neeborliness.

We'll be in a relegation battle with Cowden soon.

cowden are a proper football club though, the less can be said for their opponents.
