That's what I did though and I used photobucket. Should I use something else?

Disaster at Morton!

After a thoroughly miserable day in Berwick, rain, rain and more rain, it looked as though the evening's match was going to be just as bad. Berwick were leading 2-1 with just 15 minutes to go when I decided to 'go for broke' and threw on striker Jason Walker for defender Marc McCulloch. A fantastic end to the match saw us score 3 goals to keep the title race on. Derek Collins (centre-back) scored from a corner after 77mins to equalise and then Warren Hawke (aging centre-forward) scored with a finish Van Nistelrooy would be proud of on 80mins after a superb counter attack before John Maisano rounded things off with a coolly taken penalty.

I couldn't have been more pleased until I returned to my office and after only a couple of minutes there was a knock at the door and it was Alex Williams(my star striker). Anyway, he told me he had achieved all he can at the club (by becoming leading scorer of all time despite only 3 years there) and he would like to move to a bigger club so he was handing in his transfer request. I reluctantly accepted after trying my hardest to persuade him to stay but he was adamant, he wanted to leave.

Oh well, hopefully i'll get some decent money from him but in the mean time, I needed to concentrate on securing promotion. This is how the league stands on 16th March after 28games:

1st - Brechin City 67pts GD= +45
2nd - Morton 61pts GD= +41
3rd - Stirling Albion 58pts GD= +30
4th - Forfar Athletic 51pts GD= +16

Can Morton continue their good form and get promoted? Let's hope so!

New job offer

After my apparent success with Morton, Northampton Town Chairman, David Cardoza phoned me asking if I would like to replace Colin Calderwood as manager of Northampton who were currently 13th in League Two. I thought long and hard about this as it is undoubtedly a bigger club than Morton but the Chairman informed me that I would only have £65,000 to spend and the club's wage bill would need to be greatly reduced therefore I said no. I think I'll wait for a job at a better club or with more money or maybe just stick with Morton.

Try making your account public for viewing. In the top right it says account options, find the option that says "make public", and set it to yes. Maybe that will help

Doesn't seem to have made any difference

How big are your screenshots in Paint? dimension wise ???x???

Also, are the files larger than 256kb? If so, resize manually to get below that.

Disappointment against Brechin

After a good win against Dumbarton and a slightly disappointing draw away to Forfar, we still sat comfortably in second place, 6 points behind Brechin with a home tie against them the forthcoming saturday, which we had to win if we were to have any chance of winning the title. We started the game quite well with a few good chances and plenty of movement. However, after 38 minutes, Brechin counter attacked from one of our corners and Grant Johnson slipped a beautifully weighted ball through for Kevin Byers to finish superbly past a helpless Craig Coyle. In the second half, we attacked them as much as was possible but they held their nerve and managed to keep out the, what eventually ended up as, 4 strikers. Our spirits had been lifted as news filtered through of an 81st minute, what looked to be, winner for Abroath against Stirling. However, when the match was over we found out Stirling had scored an injury time winner.

So with just five games to go we are now 9 points behind Brechin (surely out of reach now) and 5 ahead of Stirling although we still have a tough away fixture against them on the penultimate game of the season which could prove to be a promotion decider!

By the way, when it says, 'injury time winner' it is meant to be 'injury time equaliser'
