Oli Anderson previews today’s Paul Hampshire Memorial Match against Dunbar United

Following on from what was a tough test against SPFL Premiership opposition in Falkirk on Tuesday night, where the Fifers fell 4-2, East Fife are back in action today. We travel to New Countess Park for a slightly earlier kick off of 2:30pm to play in the Paul Hampshire Memorial Match against Dunbar United.

Paul played for both East Fife and Dunbar, making over 50 appearances in a two-year spell with the Methil Milan from 2005-2007. From there, Hampshire would move on to the Seasiders.

Gregor Nicol was the standout in Tuesday night’s defeat, setting up Alan Trouten for the first goal, and scoring the second on his own. Plaudits must also be given to Matty Rollo in goal, who made a handful of very strong stops over the course of the contest.

The last time these two sides met, it was an afternoon to forget for the Fifers, as the East of Scotland outfit claimed a 1-0 victory to progress in the Scottish Cup. A Dean Whitson penalty was all that separated the sides on the day, but the result only added to East Fife’s recent poor form in Scotland’s prime cup competition.

PreSeason DU

Oli Anderson previews tonight’s match against Falkirk

The Fifers look forward to their first contest of the season this evening as they welcome newly promoted Premiership side Falkirk to the MGM Timber Bayview Stadium in a friendly fixture. Undoubtably, it is a fantastic opportunity to get sharpness back into the players ahead of the fast-approaching Premier Sports Cup Group Stages, which kick off in less than a fortnight’s time.

Although this is our first action of the season, Falkirk have already had minutes under their belt, though in their most recent encounter, it did not go to plan as they were defeated by Michael McIndoe’s Edinburgh City side 3-2, even trailing by three goals to nil after a slow start. Following the defeat, assistant manager Paul Smith spoke with Falkirk TV:

“It was a wakeup call defensively today; we gave away three very poor goals in the first half and we became restless. We were very poor in both boxes today. I was very happy with the progress we had seen in preseason up until today, we are disappointed to let our standards drop.”
