The first 1/4!
Berwick 2 v East Stirlingshire 2 (4-5 pens)
Damien Geilty (2)
We started the campaign against East Stirlingshire in the 'Challenge cup', they were expected to struggle in our league, however due to fatigue i had to play some weaker players. We took them to pens, where we lost 5-4 which was quite unfortunate.
Berwick 1 v Livingston 2 (AET)
Kane
We then faced Livingston in the league cup, a side we draw 0-0 with in a friendly, i played on counter , and we took them to extra time, which was a decent result. However we were out of 2 cups.
Berwick 3 v Queen's Park 0
Dods
Currie
Mclaren
We took on Queen's park, who i believe are currently 2nd IRL . We won convincingly, and Dods scored his first goal.
Berwick 0 v Stirling 3
This really wasn't a fair reflection. We had more shots (10-6) but they had 3 highlights, and scored from all 3. Fairly dissappointing.
Berwick 1 v Clyde 1
Dods
We had 12 shots, and 57% possesion, to their 4 shots. Was gutted not to win
Berwick 1 v Annan 0
McLaren
We were comfortable, and they never really threatened , so a nice 3 pts.
My player of the month (August) :
Dods

Berwick 2 v Elgin 3
Brydon
Cummings
A close game, which we did just edge on stats, but lost in the end. Pretty gutted after this one.
Montrose 4 v Berwick 2
Cummings
Hoskins
We were 2-1 up here, with a Cummings great goal, and a Hoskins penalty, but they scored 3 in the last 15
Edinburgh University 1 v Berwick 1
Easton
As always on FM one bad result follows onto another so easily. You end up on a terrible run. We should've battered these.
Berwick 3(AET) v Edinburgh University 2
Dods
Gielty
Currie
We nearly crashed and burned in the Scottish cup, but Currie saved us in extra time. We were actually 2-0 up in this one aswell.
Berwick 4 v East Stirlingshire 4
Easton 2
McLaren
Lavery
Shocking result, these only had 1 point from 7. How we conceded 4 i have no idea. Might swap away the Barca tactic, it's not working well as i'd hoped.
Peterhead 3 v Berwick 1
Currie
The bad form continues, uh oh.
Queens park 3 v Berwick 0
The team i started the season against, beating so convincingly demoted me to 8th place. Gutting stuff, defo need a tactic change, will look to after Rangers.
Rangers 4 v Berwick 1
This was 1-1 for the first hour, they scored in the 78th minute, so i went 'Gung-Ho' for an equaliser, and ended up conceding 2 more.
Really couldn't pick a player of the month, we were shocking.
This isn't a great start, 10 games in and at the end of september, in the next update, I changed my tactic from possession football, to tactic B, and saw a change, coming soon.
All feedback is appreciated.
