With the continued postponement of the Lowland Development League, East Fife can announce that a further two members of our Under 20s squad had gone on loan.

Jamie Allan has joined East of Scotland Premier Division side Dundonald Bluebell. Midfielder Jamie made his first team debut against Montrose in September 2019 and was captain of the Under 20s side last season where he also picked up the East Fife Supporters Club Under 20s Player of the Year Award. Dundonald were scheduled to play Penicuick Athletic yesterday but the match was postponed due to a waterlogged pitch. Dundonald’s next match is against Queen’s Park in the Scottish Cup on the 28th of December. The match is scheduled to be played at New Central Park, Kelty and will be shown live on BBC Scotland.

Forward Rory Cosgrove has joined East of Scotland Premier Division side Broxburn Athletic. Rory made his first team debut as a 16-year-old when he started in our challenge Cup match against Stirling Albion in August 2019. Broxburn were scheduled to face Musselburgh Athletic in the league yesterday but this match was also postponed. Next up for Broxburn Athletic is an away trip to face Nairn County in the Scottish Cup on Boxing Day.

Darren Young: “The main objective was to get the guys game time. It’s good for these guys to get them playing. The ones that have been around the first team haven’t looked out of place and have done well. A youth set-up is something that hasn’t been here for a few years at the club, but it gives you that opportunity to have a step-up from the Community Football Club as well. It’s a pathway that we wanted to create and hopefully it’s starting to beat fruits already”.

We are delighted to announce that Liam Newton has penned a contract extension until the summer of 2022.

18-year-old Liam was promoted to the first team in the summer after impressing for the Under 20s side last season. He made his debut against Cowdenbeath in the Betfred Cup in October before scoring his first goal against Raith Rovers in the same competition a few days later.

Speaking ahead of yesterday’s match against Peterhead, Manager Darren Young said: “Liam has come in and done very well so this is a testament to how he’s played. We spoke to him during the week to get everything agreed and signed so it’s great for the club and Liam himself.”
