Great news, but no surprise the Bandits scarf was returned to it's rightful owner I still can't believe you were happy to be photographed in, let alone wear another sides colours, drunk or not. I'd rather put my testicles through a mincer than wear any other sides colours but my own!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

falkirkbandit Posted October 29, 2012 Report Share Posted October 29, 2012 You will indeed , though the Bandits scarf was returned to it's rightful owner I saw the picture on Facebook, good on you mate. Like me wearing the Tigers race jacket in the bar, after the recent meeting at Ashfield....its all fun and banter.

GLP Posted October 29, 2012 Report Share Posted October 29, 2012 Hard lines for yesterday boyz if no for the injuries we would be in the play offs but another good season especialy with the 4tt cup Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emilali Posted October 29, 2012 Report Share Posted October 29, 2012 Hard lines for yesterday boyz if no for the injuries we would be in the play offs but another good season especialy with the 4tt cup Is that a serious comment? We were 2nd bottom before all the injuries, its a joke that people use the injuries as an excuse for this season, the team was not good enough from the start, thats the top and bottom of it it. The fours was brilliant, and just proved what a good top 4 we had, that was it, the other 3 werent up to it, with the exception of Edberg at times who could only really score at home, nothing away. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freddyfivetoes Posted October 29, 2012 Report Share Posted October 29, 2012 Is that a serious comment? We were 2nd bottom before all the injuries, its a joke that people use the injuries as an excuse for this season, Second bottom when Smith and Barnfield were hurt? As an observer, I'd say your posts appear to display some (personal?) vitriol towards the management at Berwick, which is surely not needed when the club is in a parlous financial state. Do you want them to spend funds they clearly don't have to buy you next year's title? Or get the club solvent, running and attracting the respect of BSPA and FIM with their improvements? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wish people would stop including Smith and Barnfield as excuses .Clearly the replacements were no worse.we got conned by the German and that started the troubled season regarding team strength. Season is over now lets move on.Ricky was Bandit of the year IMO and he was Kozza's replacement !!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Season is over now lets move on.Ricky was Bandit of the year IMO and he was Kozza's replacement !!! Its not really an excuse to be fair, they did actually get injured, and it did affect the dynamic of the Berwick side. As good as Ashworth was, and he was, a fit Smith and Barnfield means you could in theory start with Bellego at reserve, and don’t then have to sign Hertrich, King, Jacobsen, Tomiceck etc during the course of the season. Looking back over last season, the injuries to both did impact Berwick over the year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes I went to Hoddeson from Coventry yesterday. The other problem Berwick had was fact that for different reasons the two Guests at No 1 scored 10 between them over the two legs so sadly that does not win Cups.I don't know emilali but as I follow Berwick comments on Forum I have to say some of his/her material is ok and often close to truth but at other times all lot of remarks seem to indicate someone at the club has maybe rubbed him/her up wrong way in past!!

It left us with less than 5pts to find a replacement for the German or was that not the case.? Barnfield was worth a punt but what I saw of him he would have been hard pushed to finish with a 5pt average.But thats history.Herrtrich was on a 5 if I remember right.

Of course it is, that’s an obvious statement. Losing you’re a heat leader and a decent talent before a wheal is turned is just as much a problem as any other trough the year, to gloss it over as an excuse is just nonsense IMO.

OK, I take you are referring to Barnfield regarding the decent talent.Replacing him with another decent talent was the problem.Bellego would have had to be in the top 5 for May anyway if it was between Him, Edberg and Barnfield from what I saw on track.
