Wasn't there obviously, But wtf happened!!!!!!

This has been coming for a while though.

You got humped because you are shite. End of story

Im afraid Berwick Rangers are going down.

So what in the name of flying peterhead poop happened?>

Obviously not there either but can guess the what the excuses will be - lots of injuries, players playing out of position, young lads with no experience playing, Peterhead fired up for new manager (though hasn't exactly hapened for us).

But they can stick them.

In my opinion Renwick is simply not good enough - there has been very little since he joined to get excited about apart from Diack returning to scoring form.

So the real question is do we give him to the end of season to see if he can show us how things are going to improve or do we get rid of him and the Scab now?

Thank you for your valuable and incisive contribution.
Smelly f**k.

Looks like you've made your mind up already.
Heard someones after Diack as well, 1st Division.

Yes I guess I have. I want to give the guy a chance and I was delighted to get a new manager rather than one of the old faces but it just does not look like it's working.

Sack him now and if necessary give the reigns to Little and Wood till the end of the season whilst we look for someone else.

Now now no need too get personal


Berwick hired an inexperienced manager while down at the bottom of the league already. How on Earth he was expected to turn things round is beyond me. Berwick simply dont have the strength in depth or the ability to successfully maintain their position as a club in the 2nd division.


Hows that for incisive??



Or maybe the referee was biased

Good post, he doesn't seem capable of firing players up, i know alot of our players are not good enough for this division and we do have alot of injuries, all the same 9 - 2 is a disgrace. I wasn't there either obviously and don't know the facts but any team that lets in 5 goals in 29 mins needs some new ideas so maybe Renwick needs to go now. The cheapest option doesn't seem to be working.

I bet he was

Rumour going around today that he's going to sign a pre-contract deal with Brechin and will join us in the Summer.

Why didn't you put that up in the first place Instead of taking great joy in our misery. Some of us have still got season tickets you know.

1st Division
Are you lot planning a miracle run then.

We were coming back into it, but their seventh was offside, and that killed us off...

...nah, seriousyl, I've no idea, wasn't there, and would probably be having nightmares if I was there.

It's frustrating, we've shown signs of improvement in small patches recently, but we're playing the walking wounded, and unless we can sign a dozen fit players by the end of the month, I'm afraid we'll be dusting down the timetables for buses to Montrose and the Shire next season

I apologise for being happy a team I dont like got humped! Of course if Cowden lost 9-2 no Berwick fans would gloat


I feel sorry for you having a season ticket though


I am sure Renwick will be a good manager next season in the 3rd division.

I really hope not. I've defended the guy through his thin periods. He may be lazy at times. Play to him though and give him the ball where he wants it and he is a superb striker. You know what you get with him and it is worth adapting your game to get the best from him.

Without his goals we would still have been stumbling around the third, instead of having a season away, with the big balloon leading the forward line.

what has happened to berwick. last season you guys were the only team that i was impressed with in the third div. even when you guys came up here a couple of months ago i noticed that by moving up u have took a step back.

It said in the Record today that he has signed it already with Brechin.

Who says he signing for a 1st division club?

By all accounts he's already signed a pre-contract agreement with us.

I'm off to get pissed and watch Bolton piss on King Kev's chips

We have a horrendous injury list,that is no ones fault.Sack the manager ,i really don't know if that's the answer.Saying that,it is hard to defend him after conceding 9 goals,irrespective of what side we had out.
Gemmill returned today and lasted all of 9 minutes,so it probably means a spell on the sidelines for him till full recovery is made.McGroaty resurfaced today ,he probably fancied a little run out before his departure to Stenny.Manson appeared as a substitute last week,don't think he came on, and, was absent today.
Raith next week in what is an arguably a tougher fixture ,so if we don't concede 9 can it be reguarded as an improvement?That arguement remains if we don't score two.
Can it get any worse?

Diack has signed for Brechin pre- contract

I thought my pal was taking the piss when he told me the score! Berwick must be shite!

oh wow!

Haha, crazy score...

We were the top joint scorers away from home in the 2nd division today,kinda knocks that arguement on the head.

The team today was Flockhart, McLean, McGroaty,Henderson, Smith, Murdoch, Fairbairn, McLeish, Diack, Gemmill and Greenhill. Horne replaced McLean after 52 and a Shuffler said Stevenson for Gemmill after 9.


Now that may not have been what we expected our first team to be even three months ago but there's a fair amount of experience there and three new signings the manager clearly believes are good enough or he would not have bought them.


This has a terrible effect on crowds as well, which effects the money coming in, which effects the players you can sign. It's a classic vicious circle of despair.

Diack going is just the final nail in the coffin

He has to go and make it quick.

im in shock!!!
that was a humping of the highest order there can be no excuses.it could and should have been double figures
im off out to get pished

We have Berwick at home next week, so surely it'll be a 0-0 draw.

I was extremely pissed off watching my team get humped today and I made a round trip today of around 2 miles. 9-10 hours of travelling to see your team lose 9 goals? Can't imagine what the Berwick fans who were at the game must be thinking.

sounds like a boring game then

na thats terrible. i agree a 10 hour round trip so see your team get beat 9-2

After 30 minutes i got a call saying it should be 10 or 11 already.During the 2 minute phone call Peterhead created another 2 chances to score.

Well said, though they're a fairly phlegmatic bunch who will no doubt be drowning their sorrows on the way home.

What was the final Coldstream score?

See what happens when you don't have a drunken bum in charge? Even McAllister scored a goal.

Seriously, the Peterhead players were up for it from the off and with the restraints of the long ball - hoof it up the park and hope for the best gone, the team were back to their old passing game getting the ball wide and getting crosses into the box. Berwick were unlucky in that they happened to be the opposition today. Credit to them as they continued to try and play football and didn't resort to any physical tactics apart from the guy who got sent off and who looked out of his depth and a bit of a carthorse. Maybe they weren't physical enough as their manager was screaming at them to "f***ing tackle them".

However I did lose count of the number of times the ball got into the opposition box and it could have been a lot more than nine. The players had a point to prove today and they were first to every ball. An SFL goal scoring record for us following on from the eight we put past Forfar last season. Hopefully we can build a bit of momentum from this win and maybe reach fourth place. A result like this will not do anything for Berwick's confidence and they will struggle to stay up. Diack took his two goals well and looked a quality finisher.

Boring game all round then?

damn you raithfortheleague

you beat me to it

It must of been the County legend Neale Coopers influence oviously.

I assume with that comment he isn't impressing much?

lol berwick are shite lol

Well done Berwick, it takes a good team to score two goals at Balmoor

made my day that

Also heard the story about Diack signing pre-contract for Brechin.

How could a team possibly be that bad?

Swanson looks great btw. Got a really bad injury late on today and looks like he'll be out for a while.

Glad you like Danny - hope he's not too seriously injured. I wasn't convinced he would make the grade but full credit for Levein for throwing him in, bound to do his confidence the power of good and he is a real confidence player.

How can we be that bad? Trawl through this forum and you will find the answers. Losing our best player to your lot didn't help especially when we didn't have a replacement fixed up.

Yes its a different team from last year, yes we have a new manager, yes we have a lot of injuries but at the end of the day, we were going down from day one.

And I will say what everyone is thinking but afraid to say -

There was a complete lack of judgement in seeing that the squad was not good enough or big enough to compete in the most competitve league in Scottish football, (six possible promotion spots and two relegation).



Hacked off
Doug

Possibly a little harsh we did have the basis of a good team but the signings were not good enough and letting McNicholl becomes a worse decision by each passing game. I could see the logic behind it but it was clearly an atrocious decision, and we should have looked at resigning him given the obvious defensive frailties all season.

What is really concerning is how can we convince anyone to join in the current position and the thrid looks even more competitive this year which means we have to hit the ground running next season, assuming we do go down.
An unbeaten run to the end of the season might save us.

canny wait till the berwick fans that went up today get on here. what a fucking seekner che

A 9-2 defeat, I'm sorry there has to be no excuses from here on in. It's embarrasing and even Alan Green was making appeal on 606 for fans to ring in and ask were Peterhead that good or were Berwick that bad.

We have a manager that is completely out of his depth. Anyone who hides behind the injury situation is as big a fool as the people that are making all these excuses. If Renwick has any balls he resign tonight before he makes an even bigger laughing stock of this great club.

Now we'll see how the trio that are calling all the shots deal with this latest disaster. This is the second biggest defeat in the club's history. If they don't act on this debacle they certainly don't give a toss about the future of the club.

The policy of throwing in kids is simply not going to work and frankly if we keep going down the route we are currently going we'll be sinking into the drains of Scottish Football. We'll struggling in division three next season at the rate we're going.

I couldn't agree more. Even more so galling when Grant has been training with the squad for the past two months and it appears as though no move has been made a move to offer him a deal. He's got black & gold blood running through his veins, I'm sure he'd jump at the chance if he was offered it.

Imagine getting horsed at peterhead....



... oh shite wait...

He's also been at the last two home games, sign the bloke up now. Unless those in charge get a fuckin grip soon Berwick are in danger of becoming the new Shire.
