Good point. Well done Bruce and Rummel for keeping the leadership going the last few months and also Gerry and Davie when the focus on was obviously Kelso elsewhere.

Well done to the players for getting 5th. Disappointed we have been shafted for the 7s though. Pulled out all of them apparantly because ooo couldnt get a squad. Aye right. Hidden agenda mare like. Pigbarians must be mare important or a paid gig. Yin or the twae. Cheers for that. It winnae be forgotten
Not ideal playing conditions but a decent result no less, shame the 'Fridge' suffered from
'Billy Butterfingers' syndrome in what should have been a certain try that almost had the huge crowd cheering but alas it was not to be.

Apologies that no team has been published this week but as of 10.30am this morning we dont have 15 players. I cant publish a team if we dont have one.
Does anyone know who is taking names for the domino night, or does one just turn up beforehand.
Fridges try will be up later on today and to all the doom and gloom merchants I heard moaning from my scaffold position yesterday we can still finish 3rd in the league which would be a massive achievement this season.
Well done to the 'Fridge' on a fantastic try, no doubt taking lessons from Wullie (5 yards) Blacklock.
Sadly we were not the hungriest or meanest team on the park yesterday, we were 2nd to the ball in too many occassions and we were punished for it, hardly getting over the game line is never easy.
However we did rally in the 2nd half, causing the Haddington coaching staff to have a near seizure, as we massed up to 20 points on the board in a short spell, but we knew by then the match was beyond us. Next week it is the turn of the bottom of the table side Morgan Academy, let's get our heads together and not turn this into a banana skin episode, pride cometh before a fall, well we had the fall from grace, time to climb up again, c'mon guys give us something to roar about.
See you all next week.

About time we rallied behind the club and the coaches and see out the season with a bang we don't turn into a bad team overnight!!! The work jammy, Davie and Gerry have done at training with limited numbers has been nothing short of extraordinary and also jammy in getting 15 bodies together to pull on the red jersey every saturday!! Once a red always a red
Member and Redskins IP addresses have now been blocked. This was supposed to be a closed page for members only but the recent outage by webs reset all the parameters.These posters are not bona fide approved members of this site and managed to slip through the net. The page security has now been re-set and the offending posts removed. Apologies also to Derek Wood whose valid post I accidentally deleted and just for added security I have now password protected the entire website which means it can no longer be viewed by the general public.
Just because the 'older blokes' are saying it does't make it right. I hope you realise how pathetic that sounds. Yes it is a fact that since Jammy took on the job as Kelso D.O. We haven't won, but that has nothing to do with the losses. For the perfectly valid reasons given by Jammy, we haven't had people training like they should be and were, in the pre and early season. On Tuesday there were 6 people training and one of them was Ross Graham who wasn't allowed to play for us as he is in the Scotland U18 squad. The Thursday night before Peebles we had no lineout jumpers at training so no lineout practise and no scrummaging practise either. This is fairly common. Have the 'older blokes' factored that in. When the 'older blokes' played you could get away with not training every week as the game was different then. Not now. If you don't put the work in, you get punished. We have had to play in recent weeks including Saturday past players such as Graeme Cannon, Shaun and Glyn Desport, and Josh Farmer who haven't trained or played this season. They have shown great commitment to come out and do their best for the club, and why have they done this? To play for Jammy and for the Redskins. To have a go at Jammy anonyously is beneath contempt after all he has put into the club. Grow a pair, and put your name to your criticisms. Everybody is entitled to their own view of what's happening at the club, but hiding behind nom de plumes helps nobody.

Redskin, i wish you would hide behind a different name because your certainly no Redskin.
The losses have come against some decent teams,players dont turn up at training because they have to earn a living in most cases.The coach has 2 small children and a wonderful woman who works nightshift and its not always easy to get babysitters.The coach has missed plenty of sessions over the last 7 years and training has been taken by Ice,Davie or Gerry who are all excellent coaches.
The good work and reputation of this club has been built over 93 years and not 3 years.
There are real Redskins at the club who will continue to do their best to help the club survive.
The older blokes have seen more difficult times than this before and rolled up their sleeves to steer the club through troubled waters and no doubt will do so again.
If indeed you were a Redskin you would know the full facts behind our squad problems so kindly take your poison off elsewhere.
Member,i quite possibly have never had the plot never mind lost it.Thanks for your support!!

Any match report or match highlights from the Hawick game? What happened to the coverage of the Selkirk and Jed games?

Another meaningless fixture this weekend while Howe get to stretch their lead over us to 20 points at Morgan. 15 weeks between league matches is almost an entire league campaign. This season has deteriorated into one shambolic mess, We are almost at the stage now where it is pointless actually playing any more games. Points on the board are better than games in hand and we are almost at the point of no return. Nothing less now than a 5 pointer against Peebles and it's season over, thats if it isn't already over. SRU hang your heads in shame. 11 Saturdays 11 league games and then you go and f**k up the whole season. 4 months between leagues games could only happen where the SRU are involved.
If a team is picked and given to me on a Thursday night I will post. If a bunch of names is flung at me just for the sake of it saying team from then I wont because thats just a cop out meaning there isn't a team picked. I've better things to do than jump on and off here all the time, especially for a pointless fixture which is just a glorified friendly with nothing at stake,

No news is good news they say, but now we are having complete silence.
Is there a match tomorrow, any idea of the team selection, or have the website admins given up completely on this. Do appreciate the need for info, if it does not come though you cannot post it out.
Shame really, it all looked so promising then it went downhill like a ferret down a rabbit hole.

Not much happening on the guestbook these day
That's what happens when you cut off the neds lifelines.. It probaby goes to prove that no-one really wants to have a guestbook.
Nearly another upset, but not quite, fair result under the circumstances, with personnel out or missing, it was the best anyone could hope for. Playing this high up, you need a big squad for days when there's a lack of numbers, and it showed yesterday. It's the league games that matter most, but getting anything from the RBS cup or Borders League would be a bonus. Onwards and upwards.
Here's hoping this does not get abused like the open guestbook was, and whilst we are here, good luck to the boys tomorrow, I will be there to cheer you on.
This is a members only page to post comments that replaces the guestbook which clearly has outlived it's usefullness. You can post here safe in the knowledge that it's vetted. This is a new APP provided by the web hosts which is why it hasn't been used in the past.
