| 1. Author: DJAS Date: Mon 7th Jul 2025. 13:22 A new partnership with Thomas Franks to further enhance hospitality and our fan experience. Dunfermline Athletic is proud to announce an exciting new strategic partnership with leading hospitality specialists Thomas Franks. This collaboration marks a significant step forward in the club’s ambition to transform the matchday experience for supporters, guests, and the wider community. Working closely with the experienced team at Thomas Franks, the club will deliver enhanced hospitality offerings across the Purvis Suite, matchday lounges, and kiosks at KDM Group East End Park. Beyond matchdays, this partnership will see the launch of a comprehensive non-matchday events offering, including weddings, conferences, parties, and large-scale community events. A newly designed events calendar and bespoke hospitality brochures will be released in due course, showcasing the full range of premium options available at the stadium as we look forward to the 2025/26 Season. Speaking about the collaboration, Glen Banks, Director of Thomas Franks Sports & Leisure, shared his enthusiasm: “We are thrilled to embark on this exciting journey with Dunfermline Athletic FC. Our shared commitment to quality and fresh, locally sourced ingredients will undoubtedly result in an enhanced experience for match day fans, conference guests, and eventgoers alike. These are exciting times at Dunfermline Athletic, and we are proud to be a partner of the club as part of this next chapter. With strong leadership in John Fleming and the Thomas Franks Scotland team, we’re confident in delivering something truly special.” This partnership reflects the club’s continuing commitment off the field to deliver high-quality experiences, creating new opportunities for fans, businesses, and the local community to engage with the club and its facilities on match and non-match days. More details, including hospitality, event brochures, and a full event schedule, will be released shortly. Predictor league winner 2012/2013 Reply |

| 4. Author: Raymie the Legend Date: Mon 7th Jul 2025. 13:53 Not sure if this has been done, but would have been a good idea to poll the fans to see what they would like? From there, they could perhaps address the top ten wishes ? It`s bloody tough being a legend Ron Atkinson - 1983 Reply |
| 5. Author: DJAS Date: Mon 7th Jul 2025. 13:56 Raymie the Legend, Mon 7 Jul 13:53 They did send an email to everyone at end of season for thoughts on different things. Not quite a poll but they were looking for feedback. Predictor league winner 2012/2013 Reply |
| 6. Author: da_no_1 Date: Mon 7th Jul 2025. 14:02 Raymie the Legend, Mon 7 Jul 13:53 I`m sure I`ve completed at least a couple surveys about everything to do with match day over the last couple of years. "Some days will stay a 1000 years, some pass like the flash of a spark" Reply |

| 8. Author: alwaysaPar Date: Mon 7th Jul 2025. 14:16 Im surprised the guy has enough time with doing catering, I would have thought managing Spurs would be a pretty full on job...... . 😉 Reply |

| 10. Author: wee eck Date: Mon 7th Jul 2025. 14:20 Does that mean the link-up with Stephen`s has ended? Reply |

| 12. Author: Berry Date: Mon 7th Jul 2025. 14:39 wee eck, Mon 7 Jul 14:20 I read it differently and was more about the hospitality packages we offer rather than our actual in stadium catering which is covered by Stephen’s. I’m hoping I’m wrong though. Reply |

| 14. Author: wee eck Date: Mon 7th Jul 2025. 14:44 That`s how I read it too, PP, but was surprised it didn`t mention Stephen`s specifically. Reply |
| 15. Author: Berry Date: Mon 7th Jul 2025. 14:46 Nice one, I must’ve misread it - fingers crossed then. Reply |
| 16. Author: Buster_Brown Date: Mon 7th Jul 2025. 15:31 wee eck, Mon 7 Jul 14:20 As others have said, I don’t think so, it reads like it’s just the hospitality areas. That said, I’m sure most of us are fans of Stephen’s in general, but they really need to up their game inside the stadium. The difference in quality between EEP and their local shops is night and day. Reply |
| 17. Author: bongos2003 Date: Mon 7th Jul 2025. 15:38 Find out who does the catering at Kelty Hearts. The steak pies and sausage rolls on Saturday were excellent. Reply |
| 18. Author: Raymie the Legend Date: Mon 7th Jul 2025. 15:38 Well, if that’s the case, get your pies/bridies in town. They won’t be any colder by half time? It`s bloody tough being a legend Ron Atkinson - 1983 Reply |
| 19. Author: Athletico Date: Mon 7th Jul 2025. 15:45 Just had a look around their website, impressive clientele list. They already have jobs for the Pars: Stadia Head Chef: https://careers.thomasfranks.com/pbank/owa/pbk24w12.main?p=cejjnzocgigegn3o907kaztyawiznaodekljfdn Bar and Concession Manager: https://careers.thomasfranks.com/pbank/owa/pbk24w12.main?p=cejinzocgigegn3o907kaztyawiznaodekljfcn Reply |
| 20. Author: kozmasrightfoot Date: Mon 7th Jul 2025. 15:53 I remember years ago, someone snuck me a miniature steak pie from hospitality, it was 2 bites of culinary joy, a beefy orgasm in the mouth (dont be crass boys). I dont know who was in charge of hospitality catering back then, but it sure as shït wasn`t Stephens the minging* bakers. *Their cakes and rolls are good, but meat products are substandard to certain other bakers. If Kelty Hearts can offer up a decent meaty product, we have no excuse not to ditch Stephens when their contract expires. Pars fan. Magpies fan. Mens tennis fan. Alternative rock fan. Not a fan of much else. Reply |
