Season review

May

5 May 2017: After finishing fifth at the end of the 2016–17 season, manager Allan Johnston opted to offer new deals to the majority of the playing squad. Three first team players who were not offered new deals were Lewis Spence, Euan Spark, and Ben Richards-Everton,[14] the last of which had struggled with injury during the 2016–17 season. Additionally, the club decided that they would not enter a youth side into the 2017–18 SPFL Development League[15] with four youth players being subsequently released.[14] Cammy Gill, Stuart Morrison, Scott Lochhead, Brandon Luke and Callum Smith were all promoted to the first-team.
8 May 2017: In the club's end of season address chairman Ross McArthur outlined the club's intentions of reaching a Scottish Premiership play-off place for the 2017–18 season, with a slightly smaller squad of players than in the previous season. Additionally, it was announced that work was due to begin on relaying East End Park's pitch after it was criticised for its condition towards the end of the previous season.[15]
17 May 2017: The side completed their first signing of the 2017 summer transfer window, bringing in French defender Jean-Yves Mvoto on a one-year deal.[16][17] Mvoto, who played most of his career in England, had previously played for Fife rivals Raith Rovers during the previous season.
31 May 2017: After the club's previous announcement on player releases, four further first-team players decided to leave East End Park following the end of their contracts. David Hutton, who made just 14 appearances over two season left to sign for recently promoted Scottish League One side Arbroath,[18] whilst club captain Callum Fordyce signed for Championship rivals Queen of the South.[19] Michael Moffat[20][21] and Andy Geggan[22][23] both signed for Ayr United, with both players having previously played with the Somerset Park side before playing for Dunfermline. At the time of his departure, Geggan was the longest serving Dunfermline player, having made almost 200 appearances, and was the final member of the squad who went through administration with the Pars in 2013.[23]

June

23 June 2017: The fixtures for the coming SPFL season were released, with the Pars facing off against Scottish League One champions Livingston at Almondvale Stadium.[24] The side's first home match was against recently relegated Inverness Caledonian Thistle, with the third fixture lining Dunfermline up against fierce rivals Falkirk at East End Park.[24]
26 June 2017: To celebrate the 50 year anniversary of the club's 1968 Scottish Cup victory, the club launched their replica home kit for the 2017–18 in commemoration of the event.[25]
