  1. 90 minutes of the season doesn’t decide the league, first half shire looked the real deal, second half too many failed to turn up which was a bit surprising. Hopefully by the time we get to Bonnyrigg in two week our players realise in this league you have to win the battle first before you win the game.
  2. No one knows the level of investment and quite possibly we may only have spent a small proportion of it, and the truth is without investment we were going bust anyway so let’s all strap in and enjoy it however long it lasts.
  3. If the money continues to be spent then the top 4 will all be in the league so everyone will get a chance eventually
  4. Shire looking to have a lot bigger squad next season so I would think we still have a few nice wee surprises up our sleeves.
  5. Bsc were by far the better team today but the truth is you have more players than fans.
  6. We are also a team who’s fans have had to suffer a hell of a lot the past 20 years, so people may think we deserve a wee break.
  7. Hope they can find a supporter for the final 🤜[emoji97][emoji97]
  8. Good to see your not missing the Shire’s money[emoji867][emoji867][emoji867][emoji867] lol
  9. Should have stuck with bomber he got you promoted against the odds in the first place# shortmemory’s
  10. This time next season you might be facing the prospect of playing the Shire to stay in the league Neilly, although word on the street is even you canny face watching Stenny these days
  11. Google Bob Worgan might find something interesting
  12. Harry Bell was born in Firs Street lifelong shire supporter and all round good guy, The lowland league will be interesting next season
  13. BOOM! New Funding East Stirlingshire FC East Stirlingshire’s Board of Directors have secured significant backing for a player’s budget next season as they look to push for a return to the SPFL after their historic relegation in 2016. After a season plagued with inconsistency and managerial change the board, in recent months, have added international businessman Harry Bell, Asian business associate Sherman Lam, Local businessman and Shire fan Bob Worgan and Falkirk based bookkeeping firm owner David McCready to the Board of Directors. Harry Bell international businessman and lifelong Shire investor has worked diligently for the last two years to secure this major investment for the Shire. The move will ensure Derek Ure and Andy Rodgers have the necessary funding to build not only a title winning squad for next season, but one that can realistically return the club to the SPFL. Despite their difficulties in recent years the club have never waned in their ambition to return to the SPFL amid constant speculation that the club wouldn’t survive the challenging financial constraints relegation brought with it. It is hoped that the funding will also buck a worrying trend for Shire that has saw them finish second and fourth having struggled to adapt to the demands of the Lowland League. This season hasn’t faired any better for Shire. Nine losses in the league, more than the past two seasons combined, have left them 30 points adrift of leaders East Kilbride in sixth place-stats that are hardly indicative of a side with title ambitions. However, Shire’s recent purple patch, which has saw them go seven unbeaten, has demonstrated not only the current underachievement of the team but also the potential of a club still yearning to be amongst the 42 elite clubs in the SPFL. Shire’s return to their ‘spiritual home’ in Falkirk, made possible by partnering with Falkirk FC, may not have translated to instant success on the pitch but it has provided a vital platform for the club to reassess and plan for the future. While Ure and Rodgers continue to assess the current squad and its capabilities they have also been active in targeting and securing players for next season, although the club is yet to reveal any details as to who they have been watching. Shire have also announced plans to run a reserve team for next season in an effort to increase the squad size and intensify competition for places. Shire’s announcement is sure to renew optimism among fans as they prepare to embark on a fourth season watching their side play in the Lowland League.
  14. Surprised by that though there was more than that
  15. I know you think your important but I wasn’t answering you just pointing out what I saw.
  16. I though Graeme McGregor was outstanding today
  17. The way Kelty celebrated their second and third goal may have led to some over the top celebrations, but if your going to dish it out then stop fucking moaning when you get it back
  18. Somehow I don’t think many of them will be Jolly tonight.
  19. We had to let them score considering they brought so many fans. Shire v Kelty. 267 Shire v lithgae. 505 They may be a diddy team but they are certainly a lot better supported than your diddy team.
  20. 99% of the posts are made by the 150/200 Shire fans so it’s not the fault of the 200/250 nosey cants.
  21. After a good victory you would have thought it might be a happy place for a change
  22. The ref who was closer to the action and at a better angle gave the penalty then changed his mind probably after consulting with his linesman , I was too far away to say either way but one thing for sure Brisbane got to it first and was the only one who touched the ball.
  23. Gala pumped the shire 3-0 three weeks ago, maybe that’s why it was an 180/1 coupon!
