| Questions and Answers: Any questions about East Fife's past? Want to know if your favourite team has ever played East Fife and, if so, what the score was? Mail Your Queries Here There was a question in the Queen’s Park v East Fife programme on 9 February 2002 regarding a match between East Fife and the British Army on 30 January 1956. It stated that the army side won 2-1 and that they had three "Busby Babes" in their side. Can you supply further details? – Mike Gill On 30 January 1956 a crowd of 3,600 watched a British Army side beat East Fife 2-1 at Bayview. The Fifers' goal came from Jackie Stewart, with Edwards and Ormond netting for the Army. The three Manchester United players in the Army side were Bill Foulkes, Eddie Coleman and the great Duncan Edwards. Tommy Wright had to take over in the East Fife goal after Steedman was injured. The teams were - East Fife : Steedman (Fox), Adie, S.Stewart, Christie, Finlay, McLennan, J.Stewart, Wright, Plumb (Wilson), Bonthrone, Matthew. British Army I read that 'Pasha Paterson' was one of the members of the 1927 Cup Final team. My son's nickname is also 'Pasha', which was given to him by his Turkish mother. 'Pasha' is an old Ottoman Turkish military rank equivalent to 'General'. Is it possible that East Fife's 'Pasha' was given his nicknameby a family member or East Fife supporters who fought in the Crimean War? I would love to see a picture of 'Pasha' Paterson so that I can show my son what his 75-years-ago namesake looked like! - | |
