Football: Crawford gets East Fife post

FORMER Scotland striker Stevie Crawford has been appointed caretaker manager of East Fife following the resignation of Dave Baikie.

The club announced on their official website that the 35-year-old former Hibs, Aberdeen and Dunfermline frontman would take charge "until further notice".

Baikie left the club in sixth place in the Irn-Bru Second Division after an eight-game run with a solitary victory all but ended their play-off hopes.
