Having perused the scottish league tables at the weekend, I was concerned to note that whilst Forfar are pleasingly adrift at the bottom of Division Two, East Fife are annoyingly sitting pretty at the top of Division Three, meaning that these two bitter rivals could pass each other like ships in the night at the end of the season, thus preventing the possibility of That Scoreline for another year. They've been in separate divisions for several seasons now, which obviously reduces the chances of it happening.
The reverse score happened once, in the 1963/4 season in the old Scottish Second Division, the final score being... Forfar 5, East Fife 4.
My brother and I went up to Scotland in a hirecar a few years ago, stayed a couple of nights in Edinburgh, and cruised up the Fife coast on the Saturday, taking in the game and a couple of meat pies. (It was 1-0 since you ask). It snowed on the way back.
