Full Version: The "things You'll Miss Most About Berwick" Thread
Giving you late Christmas presents 
The away days, assuming we stay up 
Assuming Berwick go down and not Ayr, we'll no doubt follow them in the play-offs, so in terms of the actual board I don't mind because the Berwick fans are all spot on.
a win

If Bewick do go down ... I'll miss seeing all the ex-Alloa players..
A ROOF!
Been there once and there was no roof anywhere in the ground!
Rained all the way down and all the way back, but stayed dry for the game!!!!
The other so called Berwick home game that year was played at Tynecastle.
Quiet day out, Killie won 4-0 i think.

lOLZERS, ROFLCOPTER,
Never been there in your life bawjaws, stop trying for some faux lower league credibility. Everyone knows it's Rusty Park and Ibrox in a fortnightly rotation.

divvent nah where youve been???
Their fans going aff their heids when you call them English b*****ds or sing Flower Of Scotland. Funny as f**k, and is 100% guaranteed. Also, the nice view, ala New Bayview, with the shitty looking power station as a backdrop. Also, the quagmire you get to walk in round to the ducket.
The Newcastle plod hilariously OTT with their TV Vans, SWAT teams and Helicopter ( the only Helicopter Berwick fans have seen). The Bird shit on the seats in the segregated area. The Stewards who can't even let you out for a pee without asking the plod's permission. Oh and Kilt (great bloke though).
I'll miss a team to finish below Ayr.
In fact, no I won't.

Alan Bowes days.
Re Tynecastle Berwick were 3-0 up at half time! Kenny Wharton (ex Newcastle) started for us. We then missed penalty in 2nd half before Killie got 2 late goals and we hung on to win 3-2.
Not QUITE the 4-0 victory you recall then.
You did hump us at Shielfield though - Tommy Burns scoring if memory serves me correctly.
1989 I think?
Ill miss Raith's 'deformed' fans, the one wi the fucked up teeth on boxing day was amazing.

It was the game at shielfield i was talking about, the roof of the terracing and the main stand had been removed for safety reasons and i'm sure it was 4-0.
Stood in the tynecastle enclosure for that forgettable 3-2 game!!!!

Dark days at Shielfield which made the score at Tynecastle all the more remarkable. That was a mad game, Killie had about 5 cleared off line in 2nd half
The 4-1 game at Shielfield was the only game played in the entire Scottish League that day, I remember it got massive press coverage as the papers didn't have anything else to report on.

Given your claim to support Annan Athletic (in your profile), what playoffs will your team play in?

That used to be you, but you got three this season. That 100% guarantee just sadly isn't there anymore. I am sure the last result at Victoria Park was only an anomaly. You can have a consolation prize of second place in the Guaranteed points league. You should take it, it is the only second place you'll see this season.

Plus we get to visit such uber-stadions as Cliftonhill, Firs Park and the Stadio Olimpico de la Borough Briggs. Stuff your silky Second Division soccer. I want crap football

I was at the Berwick vs Alloa play off match a while back, very confusing with the England flag on scarves and the "I'm sure you'll all be supporting our boys at the World Cup" half time announcement.

You can buy the same scarves with the Scotland flag too.
Berwick's always a good day out. We got Fat Les and similar tunes on the PA when we visited in the past couple of years. That'll be the banter. Isn't one of the posters here the PA boy?

That would be correct.
And a big boy he is too, our very own Vodkamonster.
