Dunfermline Athletic F.C. are the latest in a long line of football clubs suffering from years of financial mismanagement at the hands of the blazerati, who have been masquerading as upstanding custodians of our proud 128-year-old football club.

Our club is now in administration and Pars fans are pulling together to raise enough funds to get us through the remaining weeks of the season.

One of our initiatives is a fundraising evening at East End Park this Saturday, where we will have a number of ex-players and managers appearing. We are also running an auction and raffle and we are appealing to the wider football community to lend us a hand.

You can do this by purchasing a raffle ticket for £5. Payment can be made via Paypal to: [email protected].

We should seriously ALL be buying at least a ticket each - Pars are an institution that needs our support.

The Pars are a financially failed organisation , they are where they are as a result. Never re enforce failure.

So what the feck has that got to do with the loyal fan core ?
