What a f@cking palaver. Just in the door fae Brechin at 11.50. As explained above the Forth Road Bridge lorry crash was a c@nt
With my time to burn pre kick off i did something ive never done before. Had a pint in Brechin.
Rocked up for the new kick off time of 8.45 just in time for the teams to appear. But only 21 appeared so they stood knocking balls about for a few minutes untill the Brechin keeper appeared. 8.54 the game kicked off.
Half the Brechin team turned up with time to get stripped in time for KO and it showed with Airdrie dominating the play for the first 30 mins (in their horrific pink kit). Against the run of play Brechin scored through a pen. This got Brechins tails up and the game changed. During the half there was a lengthy injury to an Airdrie player delaying the game even further. At half time i looked at my watch and it was 10. I should have been almost home by then.
Second half Brechin were much better and scored again through a peach of a volley. This made Airdrie lose their discipline and put in some bad tackles and daft fouls. Brechin grabbed a third and that was that was that. The Airdrie fans turned on their manager (ex pig/pjm and sh@te sportscene pundit Mark Wilson). In a ground with about 150 folk every shout was clear as day. "Wilson, your the worst f@cking manager we have ever had", "we will no make the playoffs with you in charge ye f@cking c@nt Wilson", "Wilson get tae f@ck" and my favourite Wilson......... (three second pause)......... Ye f@cking sh@tebag". There were many many many more.
Sh@te game overall, 4 shots on target all game, 3 of which were goals. Scrappy with the ball off the deck alot.
Great result for Brechin considering their pre game build up
Also, glad i decided against Cowdenbeath as it was delayed and finished at 10.15. That would have been a late een home
