Following this morning’s announcement, we can confirm that Darren Young was, with permission from the club, interviewed for the vacant managerial position at Ayr United. However, we are happy to report that it’s business as usual at East Fife with everyone focusing on this weekend's match against Raith Rovers.

We would like to put on record our thanks to our friends at Somerset Park for the way they have conducted their business &, as such, felt it was only right to delay any announcement until after they had finalised their appointment.
