Episode 141 – Glory Days of Gold (The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly over 180 minutes)
We’re back with another episode of Glory Days of Gold, the East Fife and Scottish football podcast recorded across two continents!
We’ve seen it all from East Fife in their last two matches. The good, the bad, and the ugly all played out over 180 minutes of football. A heavy 5-2 loss at Edinburgh last weekend was certainly the ugly side of the team’s season, sucking the hope out of fans and leaving us wondering whether we were even going to get promoted, never mind lifting the Scottish League 2 championship.
We needed to see a response this past weekend against The Spartans, but by half time, another bad display that saw them trail by two seemed to have the wheels not so much fallen off, but melted down and thrown away. Then came the good. The very good. Almost the sublime, as East Fife put in a second half for the ages, playing free-flowing silky soccer, scoring four goals, and coming away with a 4-2 victory and a massive three points.
Michael, Doug, Gordon, and Andrew are back to try and make sense about the last fortnight of action and what lies ahead down the stretch. Just what East Fife from the last two weeks are we going to see in the next five? Has the ship been steadied? If they play like they did in the second half against Spartans, can anyone stop them?
