Great read Andy! And I understood almost every word.

(psst. continue) -- sorry, just warming up.

East Stirlingshire started off top of the 2nd Division. First game against Albion Rovers we were royally humped 6-1 and dropped back to third. Next two we managed to beat Alloa 2-1 and drew with bottom Club, Dumbarton, 1-1, and then we beat Raith Rovers 3-0.

This must have had some impact on the Kirkaldy Board because they sacked Calderon and offered me the job, but being a stand-up kinda loyal Shireman I turned them down.

One thing I am is loyal, to the core. When I have a job to do I stick to it through thick and thin, the opportunity to bring East Stirlingshire the glory they so thoroughly deserve...disappeared in a flash when Wimbledon, newly relegated from Division 1 and sitting 22nd in Division 2 after 20 games, £20 million in debt, came in with an offer I couldn't refuse

National Hockey Stadium, Milton Keynes. Nice :cool:

Read, until results start to go sour (no longer top of the table) and he gets livid at the game (what was that comment Iaj?).

Loyal. Pfft. And fled for poofland no less.

Now there's a guy who's well-read in the art of gutter-journalism. Pick a few words from a quote and make up whatever pÂ*ish comes into your head .

What you say has some bones, though. What manager from the second placed team in their Division wouldn't jump at the chance to flee to a bankrupt Club on the slide, with debts of a triple-rollover magnitude, and every player up for transfer at the orders of the Recievers?

(The comment went along the lines of "*****, *****, ****** *****, *********, ****** **** ****, It's a ****** stupid game and we're stupid ******* to play it!!!! ", if memory serves :cool: )

What's the fun of excerpting quotes if you can't twist them to the story you want.

And yeah, that comment seems about right. Except without all the asteriks.

As for the game itself, on to Elgin (where true loyalty lies ).

Won the first two matches 1 - 0 and then faced bottom feeders QP which could've proved to be a stumbling block but we managed alright, a 2 - 0 win I think. This set us up for a big clash against second in the table Berwick who, let's just say, had a decent match. They were lucky winners at 6 - 0 and I thought we deserved better .

Next up was third placed Peterhead (abandoned by Mark and without their star striker due to injury). It didn't matter much as they ran out 2 - 0 at the half with two brilliant goals. Felt another thrashing coming on, but we managed to pull one back before they were given a penalty. Lady luck came through as they hit the post and we proceeded to take the ball down to score the equalizer. Felt we should've had a winner, but a draw was a fine result.

We're second to Berwick on goal difference.

And in addition, one of those 1 - 0 wins was against Cyber Guinness, who manages to get online every day save for when we play. We're beginning to take it personally.

Wassup Moose?

&lt;Ahem&gt; Devon,

2-0 my arse [being a constipated arse]. Queens Park began the session predictably enough - two away defeats 0-1 to Montrose and a whopping 0-5 at Berwick. The latter game had everything - we conceded 5, our skipper conceded a penalty, went around kicking everyone, mouthing off and getting sent off but not before scoring an own goal, and to top it all our one and only keeper got nobbled. It was real wrist-slitting stuff

And then Devon's Elgin City graced us with a visit. Suddenly we were playing football - actually passing the ball to each other, getting over the half way line and having a decent number of shots on goal. We were a little unlucky to come away with a 2-2 draw. The difference was this - I was forced to replace my suspended captain with a Somali kid who did a Stevie Gerrard job in linking the defence and attack in a way that had been hopelessly missing up to then.

We had two more away fixtures to follow - and **** me we won them both! 3-1 at Cowdenbeath and 2-0 at East Fife. We continued to play football once some self-belief had been instilled in the Elgin game. The entire squad also went from manically depressive to hysterically high as a result of that one result too - there was me thinking the 'balance' attribute had to do with not falling over rather than girly emotions

Still, we're on a roll, we've closed the gap at the bottom and we're poised to make a charge up the table.

In the meantime Ian's clearly hoping his next job will be in the EHL (Why else take over at the national hockey stadium - hmm?)

And very spookily, at the same time the Raith Rovers manager was shown the door in our game he was sacked in real life by the incoming Managing Director - Anelka's brother! I did initially apply for the job but now I know who's in charge I'm somewhat cool on the prospect. Which bit's reality again? I took the CMO pill - I can't get out the Matrix :eek:

:o

How could I forget the Somali!

I knew I shouldn't have posted that early in the morning.

I've been rewriting history all day.
