April 30....New Season Away

Berking Rovers in conjunction with the Berkingshire Council and Radio Bovine have been been enticing visitors to the region throughout the off-season.

Holiday-makers and other visitors to the region have waned since Berking legalised pick-pocketing to non-gypsy residents. The local government successfully restored Berking's image after the Great Plague of 1998 by showcasing regional attractions such as the copper smelter and numerous lap dancing theatre restaurants, and are keen to succeed again with the assistance of Berking Rovers FC.

The club has already generously donated training cones and chalk to compensate for the lack of road markings in Berking.
Players have been working hard all month to give the town a much needed facelift. The highway sign that reads "Welcome to Berking! No witch hunts since Jan '06" has been re-painted and the town's beloved Marilyn the Cow statue has been repaired.
Marilyn was a local celebrity in Berking (she starred in City Slickers but not City Slickers 2 due to a breakdown in negotiations and some poor press relating to Mad Cows Disease) before resurrecting her career in a McDonald's commercial (she was the Big Mac).

The mayor believes that these improvements and Berking's secret $10,000 departure tax will encourage more people to stay longer.
