We were contacted recently by friends & family of life-long East Fife supporter Ralph (Jack) Malcolm. Jack spent most of his working life as bus driver and often had the job of driving the East Fife team bus. At one stage of his career, whilst working in London, he even travelled home at weekends to attend matches!
Unfortunately, Jack had to give up his season ticket a few years ago due to ill health and we were happy to provide him with a signed shirt and were delighted when his son-in-law Colin got in touch with a photo showing Jack (now aged 92) with his signed strip.
We’re delighted to confirm the winning design for our 2020/21 home strip as chosen by you. The winner of the prize draw & claiming the personalised & limited edition first strip produced is Blair Maxwell. Thank you to everyone who voted!
