Dunfermline Close the Gap - But Saints Can Cling On via The Scottish Football Blog May 1st, 2007 at 01:15

St Mirren 0 – 1 Dunfermline (McManus) Time for me to eat my hat then? Having written Dunfermline off, they’re doing their best to prove me wrong. This crucial victory, in a classic “six pointer,” has moved them to within a point of St Mirren and their current momentum suggests that they might kick off next season’s European campaign in the SPL. But, and there’s always a but, I...

Another SFA Cock-Up via The Scottish Football Blog May 2nd, 2007 at 00:39

SFA Chief in striptease shock It’s a prophecy I am not proud of.

But, although Stephen Kenny still believes, the chances of the Pars pulling of a great escape look increasingly unlikely. When does a drought become a famine? Nine league matches without a goal would...

Kenny and Dunfermline Step into the Unknown via The Scottish Football Blog November 22nd, 2006 at 04:14

When Dunfermline take on form side Aberdeen on Saturday new boss Stephen Kenny will take the reigns for the first time. It says much for the way that the travails of Rangers and Hearts have dictated the media agenda that Kenny’s appointment has been, to say the least, overshadowed. Jim Jefferies has already complained this season that ‘other teams’ – like Jefferies’ Kilmarnock and Kenny’s Pars...
