East Fife FC is delighted to announce our new partnership with RL Catering as our new Corporate Hospitality provider.
Currently operating at Arbroath FC, RL Catering are expanding their operations to cover also East Fife FC. With 18 years of experience in catering, we feel they’ll be a fantastic addition to the MGM Timber Bayview Stadium.
Lee Gillies, Commercial Associate Director said: “I couldn’t be more thrilled with this announcement. It’s important that we thank Iain Rennie at Fab Foods who we’ve worked with for a few seasons and who will continue to run our pie stalls for home matchdays.
“We are always striving for greatness at East Fife FC and Arbroath have had renowned success with their corporate hospitality, so we moved quickly to bring them on board. Louise and her team have been fantastic from the get-go and with some of the sample menus that we’ve seen, fans and businesses alike will be desperate to try it out.
“They’ll begin from our next home game against Bonnyrigg Rose, and we encourage everyone to come along and enjoy the experience. The club are flying high at the moment, and this is another step forward in the right direction for making our match day experience as enjoyable as possible.”
Louise Walker from RL Catering said: “Rod and I were delighted to be approached by the club and are excited to expand our operations within the football hospitality sector. We are looking forward to delivering a memorable matchday experience for all patrons attending Corporate at Bayview.”

East Fife FC are delighted to announce the signing of 21-year-old defender Mamadou Bah until the end of the season.
Prior to relocating to Edinburgh, Bah, as he is known, played for Gambian topflight side Team Rhino and has been capped by The Gambia at Under 20 & Under 23 levels.
He can play anywhere across the back four and has been training with the first team squad for the last 3-4 weeks, impressing the coaching staff with his skill & speed having played in the recent bounce game against Inverkeithing Hillfield Swifts.
Manager Dick Campbell: “From the moment he came into training we could see he had something special & having him here at least until the end of the season is quite a coup for the club.”
Having received international clearance, Bah is available for selection for this weekend’s match against The Spartans.

The Form
The Fifers
East Fife’s are on fantastic form at the moment, having won all of our last six games, accumulating a maximum 18 from a possible 18 in the league.
Firstly, a 5-1 win over The Spartans was comfortable, with Trouten at the double. McManus, Millar and Shepherd all found the back of the net too.
Alan Trouten went on to score the only goal from the spot in a 1-0 victory over tenth placed Forfar Athletic.
Midweek victory over Edinburgh City showed the squad’s character further, with a quick double countering Connor Young’s first half strike, before three goals in the last ten minutes saw the game wrapped up 4-2 in East Fife’s favour.
A commanding second half performance then saw us claim a 3-0 victory over Darren Young’ Clyde side, before our dominant first half display against Stranraer made it five wins in five.
Last week, 15 minutes of pure quality blew Edinburgh City out of the water. Eighty minutes of mediocrity drew null and void, as Nathan Austin, Adam Laaref, Reis Peggie and Alan Trouten all found the back of the net in the dying embers of the contest. Edin Lynch saw red too, in what was a shambolic end to proceedings for the Citizens, who competed well in the majority of the match.
Our Opposition
Elgin City have won two, drawn two and lost two of their last six matches.
Their losses came firstly away to Edinburgh City where they went down 1-0, before they fell 3-0 at home to Premiership side Aberdeen in the Scottish Cup, where the Black and Whites fought hard, but just came up short on the day.
Their first draw came on the 11th of January, where Forfar Athletic held Elgin to a score draw. Their most recent draw came last week on the road once more, as they played out a goalless draw against Darren Young’s ten-man Clyde side.
The wins have been big for Elgin, firstly against the aforementioned Clyde. Dylan Gavin was on hand to bag a hattrick, as they overcame the Bully Wee 4-2. Their second win came against Peterhead in a controlling display against the Blue Toon. Gavin was on the scoresheet once more, so he is a clear attacking threat, alongside new signing Kane Hester, who knows how to cause problems in this division.
