Berwick are a team who seem to spend their time yo-yoing between the second and third divisions. Last season they finished 5th, six points off the second promotion place.

Their strikeforce of Alex Burke and Gary Wood scored 29 goals between them with the Alex netting 15 and Gary 14.
Berwick have a couple of players with Morton connections, David Murie who left the club during when players were payed off is a regular at left or right back for Berwick and is considered the best of their summer 2001 buys by their unofficial fansite. Another is goalkeeper Neil Inglis who like at Morton is understudy to the main keeper.

A notable game against them is the 4-3 win the year we won the 2nd division, with Derek Collins scoring near the end to give us the victory. Morton on that day overcoming a hat trick scored by a certain Mr Warren Hawke.
