Three quarters of the way through season 2 and East Fife sit top of Division 2, with Forfar biting at our heels.

We are however 11 points clear of 3rd placed QoS and I am confident of Division One football next season.

The Icelandic striker signing has been very successful with 27 goals in 19 games for the club ! :eek:

His last two coming in the Scottish Cup 4th Round where tiny East Fife, at home, beat Celtic 2-0 in what the media described as a fortuitous win.

I saw it rather differently, as while Celtic where indeed the better team, we were hardly outplayed.

The upshot of the poor result was that Zebedee suddenly turned up on the Insecure List.

The second division championship has just been won with a few games to spare and its Division One football for sure next season.

We also managed to get to the semi final of the Scottish Cup, were improbably we were drawn with fellow Division 2 side QoS.

Unfortunately we were a skeleton team by this stage with most of the defence missing through suspension or injury and the midfield not faring too much better.

We went down 2 goals very quickly in front of 1900 people at Hampden, which must be the lowest ever attendance for a semi final

But we rallied somewhat and halfway through the second period the Icelandic goals machine pulled one back.

Still, it didn't seem enough until the last minute one of the young midfielders (the consistent ratings one, rather than the goalscoring one) scored a messy goal to take the game to a replay.

The price was the young midfielder out for 2 months with injury and the Auchinleck right winger out through suspension.

The second replay started abysmally (this time in front of 1700) as we lost our best remaining defender to a red card in the first minute.

QoS scored immediately after and with a team barely recognisable I thought we were done for.

However, on the back foot and with only 5 chances in the match we scored 4, with one and own goal when we needed it the most.

QoS came back at our strestched and exhausted side but with a final score of 4-3 we have reached the Scottish Cup Final, where we will pay Rangers.

Question: Rangers look quinds in to finish 2nd, unless Ayr United :o pip them in the final weeks. Scotland has 2 places for the Champions League, so regardless of the result in the Scottish Cup Final, will I get into the UEFA Cup?

kiss of death !

By the time the cup final came around the suspensions and injuries meant that the defence was basically the reserves and the strikers were both just coming back from injury and not 100%.

The game itself was a siege, although after a dozen shots and a missed penalty Rangers were only 1-0 up.

We got the equaliser from a corner towards the end of the second half when the Icelandic striker went off with a torn harmstring which ended up with midfielders required to play up front and in defence in a totally re-jigged team.

We took the tie to extra time, then got squashed as we went down 4-1.

A paltry 50k was awarded, and the press were keen to tell us how much we had been outplayed.

I wiz robbed!

in a bizarre reflection of life, Euro 2004 was won by Greece, beating Poofland 2-1 in the final with a golden goal.

Poofland, despite being fit, did not take Posh's bitch with them to Portugal

Didn't bother too much with transfers over the summer, with all focus on that ever-problematical left midfield slot.

The 2nd choice keeper was getting too old as well, so two main signings to mention, both from England.

One a goalkeeper, for free, and son of another goalkeeper with an enormous hooter.

And a Sweish left midfielder on loan from Manchester United.

The board are giving me close to 1k a month on salaries now, and I've given the 3 of my best players extended contracts.

cos I messed up... i'd forgotten about the scouting other countries thing while I was away from the boards for the past 1-2 years.

As it is now, nothing is being looked at except in the UK, and sometimes a bit of Europe.

The Swede and Icelander both have connections to English clubs, but the guy from El Salvador is off!

Thank god I didn't sign that Iraqi winger!
