We're back with another episode of Glory Days of Gold, the East Fife and Scottish football podcast recorded across two continents, and for this episode across three countries - Scotland, Spain, and Canada!Things are looking bleak down Bayview way. East Fife are languishing down the bottom of Scottish League 2, they're out of all the cups, the players look clueless and out of ideas at times in matches, a growing section of supporters want manager Greig McDonald out, and the Board are being questioned by the fanbase about how the club is being run in all aspects off the pitch.Was the weekend win over Clyde going to be a false dawn that just papered over the cracks or that much awaited turning point to the season?

Things need to change and they need to change fast.Is a new manager the answer? New players, new tactics, new blood in the boardroom? Is the attempted fan over by the East Fife Supporters Society going to help or hamper any turnaround? Where is the development pathway for our young talent to come through?Michael, Doug, Gordon, and Aaron are back to chat about all of that and more in the latest episode, and there's a LOT to talk about and get off our chests.

They announced one signing and seem to have another on the way to replace Julian Araujo. But what does that mean for this weekend? And why isn't the sky falling? Hosts Josh Guesman and Kevin Baxter discuss all the Galaxy news that has happened in the last seven days. And they want to start to get you ready for the Rose Bowl. They'll start with the official word on Julian Araujo going to Barcelona and why some players get it when it comes to the fans. Will we ever see Araujo again? Probably. Josh and Kevin will discuss the jersey release and the unveiling event in downtown LA. Was the location right? And what did they get wrong about an event that should have been a way to connect with fans? Josh will update you on rumors and explain why Tyler Boyd may play his way into a more significant contract. Finally, the sky isn't falling, and the Galaxy will have a good enough roster. But what does that mean for this weekend? We've got a bunch to get to as your 2023 season is about to kick off. Thanks for joining us!
