bullyweehutch Posted May 18, 2019 Share Posted May 18, 2019 Unlucky Berwick, always been a good bunch of fans but that was a utter pumping. All the best in the LL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sneed hearn Posted May 18, 2019 Share Posted May 18, 2019 Sorry for Berwick and their fans but think it’s going to happen to others with money being thrown at some clubs.Anybody can have a bad season and you want to keep out of league 2 if you possibly can.Afraid I don’t see what Cove and Edinburgh Citybring to the league certainly not support,but they have earned it on the pitch. -1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

O'Kelly Isley III Posted May 18, 2019 Share Posted May 18, 2019 Commiserations to Berwick on such a painful day. I wish you well for the future, safe in the knowledge that on 28th January 1967 you achieved the most seismic result in the history of Scottish senior club football - I recall it well. -1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was a strange atmosphere today. Was surprised at the lack of anger from the Berwick fans. But best of luck and hope you’re back soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've been rubbish for years, dreadful for months, down for a week. It's been utterly corrosive on morale. I attend almost all home and a few away games. Last saw us finish above 8th in 2015-16, last saw us win in November, last saw us score in March. Hats-off to those who regularly travel away. Even punctuating it with cup runs dried-up a few seasons ago. I'd doubt anyone regards today as a release - but if there's a silver lining it's that winning regularly and looking upward in a league should return a bit of joy to Saturday afternoons. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what I've seen this season: I feel our current team wouldn't lay a glove on top 5 and would also be second-best to 'Shire and Cumbernauld. In saying "winning regularly" it is assuming new players are recruited... current squad appallingly sub-standard.

I would think the squad you have wouldn't be too hot in the EOSL with See being the only decent player it must have been frustrating for the guy playing with a lot of dross beside him. Quite amusing the crowd was 1314 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye I was down today apart from See your squad is really poor. Too much bang average former junior players a clear out is needed if your to do anything next season.

Not the time I know, but Johnny Harvey would put a better team out in the LL than Yano imho Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
