Three draws on the bounce, at least this time we actually scored twice. Smith set us on our way before the travelling Dumbarton netted twice in the second half. However moments after they went two one up we levelled through mcLean.
Yes! A win! and unbeaten in four! We travelled to Cowdenbeath and put them to the sword in this superb three one victory. We were behind after just three minutes and looked in trouble. However Allan Smith popped up with a hatrick to bring us back into the game and secure all the points.
And I finish my stint unbeaten in five, shame the season took a dip after the first game but we've risen back up. A three nil win against Peterhead where Lavery struck once and Allan Smith netted two more, taking his tally to five in the last two games.
I finish my stint in seventh place only five points outside the promotion/relegation spot and seven points off the bottom. We are also only two points off the playoff spot whilst being just seven points from the top.
Despite being second best in the stats, goals from youngsters Dan Unsworth and Ross King has given us a 2-0 home success against third placed Elgin City. It's back-to-back clean sheets aswell for the Borderers - we need to continue the current good form if we're to have a successful campaign in League One.
We haven't been great in the Scottish Cup since arriving at Berwick (struggling to beat Threave Rovers and Buckie Thistle in our first season and Nairn County last season before losing to Aberdeen in the fourth round both seasons), I'm hoping we can actually pick up a comfortable win against Inverurie Loco Works in the third round.
For some reason we just cannot perform in the Scottish Cup when I'm in charge, we need a replay against the Highland League side. Unacceptable. Finn Graham and Michael Dunlop scored our goals, we must win the replay now.
Looks like our time at Berwick Rangers could soon be coming to an end, whenever I saw the Lincoln City job available (their last manager departed for Harrogate) I decided to apply for the post as they're not just professional but also something like third in the National North.
Poor end to my stint as we crashed to a disappointing 3-1 home defeat against Airdrie in a result that's sent the visitors to the top of the table. Scott McLean scored our consolation goal four minutes from half time but it was a bad afternoon as we lost both central midfielders to injuries while Declan Hughes suffered a 'double whammy' as he's also got to deal with a suspension.
Great read so far, i've got family ties in Berwick so i'm fond of it as a place, nice to see someone managing them. Lincoln would be a great move considering they're in the National North!

Cheers chaps, obviously a move to Lincoln would be great it'd certainly boost our chances of a trophy this year.
Back to things with Berwick, a poor showing losing out here.
Lincoln came back to us with this offer on the table and I wasn't going to turn it down, Berwick have struggled the last season and a half since promotion so it was time to up and leave to try and get some more trophies ticked off. Lincoln are second in the Conference North so far.
Here is the team we've got at our disposal, it looks strong and so it should do, only one player will need to be shipped out and thats the Austrian defender come midfielder whos here on loan.
We trail league leaders Solihull Moors by eight points after twenty four games. My first game in charge is against tenth place FC Halifax.
A good win to get us off to a flyer here at Lincoln, a two nil victory over tenth place Halifax came from Mitchell in the eighth minute and Hearn a minute from the final whistle.
Boston were sixth before this game, we were superb, giving them nothing as we won four one here.Todd netted one. Hearn netted a superb hatrick away from home which is excellent.
Its not been an easy start on paper, Halifax were tenth, Boston were sixth now Tamworth who had jumped into sixth, but we've picked up three wins from three here. Mitchell with a hatrick as Tamworth finished with ten men.

Poor. Michael Dunlop scored our consolation goal but we barely deserved that.
Shedender
Played Darren Lavery up front for this game and he rewarded me with a double, good result but it could've been more.

No doubt the early Michael Dunlop red card changed the outcome of the contest, we still played well despite the man disadvantage.
Shedender
Montrose took their chances, enough said.
Shedender
Just like the previous game, expect this time we took our chances. Scott McLean bagging a first half double away from home.

Still inconsistent, unfortunately but we'll keep plugging away.
Job done in the replay.
That's correct Dan, you won't be facing Aberdeen in the fourth round, we've a home tie vs. Stenhousemuir.
Shedender
Poor.
Shedender
And again, another unacceptable performance at home and it's now two league games without a goal and win.
Shedender
Much better performance saw us beat Peterhead 3-1 at home - Michael McKenna, Michael Dunlop and Scott McLean the scorers.
Shedender
Decent enough point away to promotion contenders Elgin, but we have slipped down one place to ninth now.
Shedender
The battle at the bottom ended in a 1-1 scoreline, draw was a fair result.

I've delayed it for a week.

Had the choice out of League One Yeovil or League Two Leyton Orient, I chose Yeovil for obvious reason, hopefully we can grab some players on loan
