DOWN to Berwick?

For anyone heading to Berwick in Englandshire tomorrow to see our next Betfred cup match: Although we talk about going "down to England" and Berwick is indeed in England...you're not going down as it is actually on the same latitude as Larkhall! Indeed it is further North than 5 teams in the Scottish Leagues. Also, and annoyingly, people think it's just a quick nip along the road from me in Dumfries when it is actually 100 miles on slow roads that go through every Border town you ever associated with egg-chasing. Nevertheless, I'm going on Tuesday, with a trip to Lindisfarne thrown in tides permitting :shock: . BTW If any of you are heading to Dalbeattie on Wednesday to see the under 20's, THAT is definitely DOWN, even for me! :D .
Geography lesson over, come on the Accies!

I'm a bit dizzy after all that.
What's your theory on the Lost City of Atlantis?

Surely even Canning can get the team up for this one. Nothing less than a 3-0 win should be the target, try and get some confidence

I don't think the team chosen for tonight will be chasing any scoring targets.

Fulton in goal, Woods on the bench. No McGowan (given his birthday off?) No Penny (injured?) Taiwo benched with Phillips making his debut. Good to see Want back in the team, and Boyd playing alongside/behind Bloomfield.

Looks like we're still trying things out.

Good start!

Miller makes it 1-0 in the 5th minute. His first Accies goal.

And he has added a second. Both headers I think. ⚽️⚽️

HT 2-0 Both goals from Miller. He netted again in 42 mins but was denied his hat trick by the offside flag.

My apologies, to you and to Martin Canning. 3-0 it now is, and what a confidence boost for Miller!

Don’t think Miller needed a confidence boost it will be Bloomfield who may be needs one :cry:

The way things are looking, that McKinnon "Panenka" may stop us qualifying as one of the best second place teams if we beat Airdrie.

Who was last Accies player to score a hat trick

Maybe someone in the 10-2 game against Morton?
