'That wind swept plain above the town' was how the local press often referred to Town hall Park, a sports field situated on high ground above the town of Methil, during the early 1900's. It was on that windswept plain that the newly formed East Fife Football Club set up home during the summer of 1903. After re-naming the field Bayview park, the Fifers played their first ever match on 15th August 1903 against Hearts of Midlothian. None of the spectators who lined the ropes that afternoon could possibly have known they were witnessing the birth of a football club destined to have a huge impact on the Scottish game. This book tells the story of East fife's first 100 years, from their foundation in 1903 through to the present day.
