Pish!

On behalf of all Berwick fans we would like to congratulate Berwick Mad on making it through to the final of Young Journalist of the Year.

Awful performance from us and in the end we were fortune to get a point. Shire will take points from most teams in this league as they look like a decent team. It's easy to see why they beat Stenny 5-0.

To be fair to Montrose they have a decent squad but i would be worried about all the nonsense that goes on behind the scenes.

Berwick played really well in the first half but their forwards looked off form and the only real threat they had was Palizcka, a player who seems to terrorise Shire every time he plays us. They would have been disappointed to go in at the interval only one goal ahead, but the biggest blow was the enforced substitution in the first half.
That altered the shape of the team and gave Shire more space to operate in midfield. Paul Stewart stepped up his game in the second half as did one or two others, although we needed Jordan Smith's own goal to give us the belief we could take something from the game.
If Berwick's forwards can get some self-belief they swill be a very good team. They seem better off without the Stenhousemuir Five.

Meeeeeeooooooooowwwwwww. That's very catty indeed. Sounds like your victory over EF has gone to ya head mate. Why are you making your boasts, put your money where your mouth is, with Robertson in charge you'll certainly win feck all we might not win anything this year but we'll finish a damn sight higher than you and on about half the money your throwing around too.

This is without dout the worst third division in years, everybody thinks the shire have improved but really how bad are the rest. I've watched most teams now and I'm not wearing blinkers, the standard is not much better than a dozen Junior teams I could mention. Elgin are without question shocking they look disorganised but may come good as the players are not the worse. Berwick 's thin squad is nowwere near the quality of last season. Its maybe worth a post to see what others think of the standard and their team this year.
I bet the ones that are doing ok will say yes we are looking good the manager is good the players are decent and the rest will say the opposite.

Also like someone to name five players in the division that you'd turn up every week to watch knowing they will entertain you.

At least Gretna brought some flair

Total shite

if the guy pays his money and watches the games he is entitled to his opinion.

as i have posted before, a lot of the fans on here think there teams are better than they really are although the performances of some third division sides in the cup suggests the standard of scottish football is deterorating on the whole.

I think your way off the mark stating the standard is not much better than the juniors because what I've seen of junior football this season, the standard is rapidly declining. I watched Bathgate Thistle a few weeks ago and they were woeful. All big money grabbers humbled by lowly Armadale. The standard over in the West isn't much better either.

You make a few valid points but lack of money is playing a big part in this subject. I know we trimmed our wage structure and perhaps a few more clubs could take a leaf out of our book.

As regards Gretna bringing some flare to the third division, that point is correct and so they should when they were playing one player almost as much in a week as what some clubs were paying their entire squad.

[gary m'cutcheon forever]

Fair play to the Shire, they were very worthy of there 1 point and possibly have a case for not getting all 3. Berwick will have to regroup even though 7 points have come in from the last 3 games its been far from convincing. Dumbarton were woeful, QP and the Shire were more value for money than the Black and Gold. East Fife will certainly give Berwick a test in terms of there future credentials.

Don't you BOUGHT some flair. Not that I would include Steve Tosh in that category. Buying flair's easy. Gretna can even afford to have it fitted

As for Div 3, don't see any basis for that. It's never been great. On the other hand, as recent cup games (eg wins by Div 3 teams) and the progress of Cowden suggest, it's not that different from Div 2 either.

[NELLY]

Shire bust ma coupon for £135 Fcuking gutted.
Well done any way to shire.It was not so long ago that Cowden fans were getting pelters from stenny and berwick fans e.g last season's 1-1 draw.Oh how times have changed.
