If you go onto the Pie & Bovril site you will see Berwick fans complaining about the pitch. Basically they say the grass was too long and they couldn`t play football on it and it suited Shire`s kick and rush policy. Funny this didn`t stop the Shire knocking the ball about,in fact I`m sure I heard someone chanting `Silky Shire` or was that an echo. I`m sure Gretna said the same! Lets hope Ramz hasn`t defected to Mackin.

Just been on to The Pie and Bovril site and believe it or not. The Stewards were from Berwick!Apparently they had been stealing money from the club at the gate and also manhandling some home supporters in a previous game. Im not surprised, these guys were nutters,although they probably thought I was a nutter! I been going to football matches since 1963 and I have never been warned by a steward or the police about my behaviour. Although I have sometimes had drink confiscated. Proud to be a Shire. I am shocked - YOU a nutter - surely not!

Someone should tell them that they are in Div 3! They are lucky its grass and not mud at this time of year!! Personally I think Jimmy and Co have done a good job on the pitch pre season ably assisted by the Supporters Club.

No one claimed the 1st scorer on Tuesday night at this game - I checked and it was out there somewhere, Shire No11. I think its probably fair to give you untill Saturday to collect it - after that I give it to wellibob! no one claimed it because no one could find you all game. Have you deserted the terracing? As for the winner. IT WAS ME. so i'll get all the cash anyway on sat. How much did I win? £1.50? Its true I don`t get to spend as much time on the terracing as I would like to nowadays - I am selling 50/50 half time draws untill they shut the gate after about 25 mins, I stand on the terrace till about 10-15 mins left of the 1st half then go and tear off the ticket stubs, put them into the plastic `spinny thing` and get the referee to draw it as he comes off the pitch. Then I get Les (the mad announcer) to announce the winning number, give the winning ticket and money collected to Les Thompson. Then I go to the shiretrust run club shop at the portakabin to see how Sandy & John are doing - as the 2nd half kicks off I take over the shop if the `shopkeepers` want to go over to the terrace for the 2nd half untill full time and wait for them to come back over to give me a hand with the stock into the car. So I`m kind of busy. Oh, and yes, if you have the Shire 11 from Tuesday night you will win £3!
