What a player he was. Scored the 3rd in a 3-1 win against QoS as well. Baird and Tadé had us 2-0 inside 10mins. He wasn't good, if we're being polite. I remember during the 2-2 game at EEP that season the Dunfermline fans regaling him with a continuous chat of 'Jamie Mole is fucking shite, fucking shite, fucking shite" and noting how simple but effective that was. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye that's one of the few games it's happened, absolutely torrential rain on a hard pitch with it being summer the puddles just wouldn't f**k off, some laugh. I'm sure that must be about 6, maybe 7 years ago. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wardy Posted February 3, 2021 Share Posted February 3, 2021 Pretty sure Mole scored at Starks against East Fife. Think it was a game we hammered them? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DAFC. Posted February 3, 2021 Share Posted February 3, 2021 I walked in to that game about 5 minutes late. Didn't know what was going on. I wasn't in Dunfermline during the monsoon so you can imagine my confusion. Rovers fans were foaming at the mouth at the entrance to the club shop and office after it was called off. Was delicious to hear their cries of "Cheats" as I sauntered back to get pished at the pub. We beat them in the replay, with one of the worst Dunfermline teams in history. Hilarious. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WSDR 88 Posted February 3, 2021 Share Posted February 3, 2021 It would seem as though there’s not any planned pitch inspection and it’s game on... which I’m pleasantly surprised with. A few school night beer [emoji482] My team for tonight JMac Tumilty Davo Frankie KMacSpencer KingArmstrong Kennedy GullanDuku Timmy didn’t do anything wrong on Saturday, so I’ve literally just tossed 10p for who’s name is going on haha! So either one will be fine. It’s probably not the 4-0-6 lineup that most were looking for... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CallumPar Posted February 3, 2021 Share Posted February 3, 2021 The only former players who signed for the Pars that I don’t like are those who I had little time for during their time at Stark’s because of their attitude. Cardle and McManus being the obvious two. Out of interest, what was wrong with their attitudes? I’m genuinely curious, as one thing that I thought everyone agreed on regarding these 2 was the fact that they have given 100% in every game, regardless of who they were playing for. This is honestly the first time I’ve noticed anyone questioning/criticising either of these players for their attitude.I’m aware McManus didn’t score that many goals for you, but in the games against us, I always thought he was his usual self, doing a lot of running and annoying defenders. That’s one of the main reasons I was pleased we signed him in 2017. Likewise, I thought Cardle did well in his short stint with you and Raith fans were happy with him. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CALDERON Posted February 3, 2021 Share Posted February 3, 2021 Don't really know what to expect tonight. With the signings we have made, and the 6 points from 9 vs Dundee and Hearts - the view of "happy to stay in the league" doesn't really wash now. There is an expectation to push for a playoff spot this season now. Will be interesting to see how that dynamic works. Dunfermline are a good side and derby games are impossible to call. We tend to vary from fantastic to dreadful, and haven't won 2 games in a row since the start of the season. However, we have options to change up our style as well as the personnel now. I'd take a draw to keep us 2nd. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just though Mcmanus was a bit shit to be honest. Don't remember his attitude being particularly bad, I just thought he was pish. Cardle was fine. A.N Other Championship winger who is great one week and anonymous the next. Seemed a decent lad and enjoyed his time here. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
