Ure still looking for more ruthlessness from Shire after perfect start
The Shire boss says in terms of results it was a pleasing start but that he feels his players still have more to offer performance wise.
He said: “Obviously If someone had offered us that before the start of the season we'd have taken it.

"It's pleasing that we're not conceding but we can't get complacent and we need to ensure we work hard to make sure it stays like that.
"If we get complacent that's when we will start making mistakes and we can't afford that."

"We were a bit sloppy in possession but we've kept the clean sheet and got four goals as well.
"What we're asking is for the players to be a bit more ruthless when we're on top because when we got that second Dalbeattie's heads went down.
"You want to capitalise on opposition mistakes to make your life easier and stop giving teams something to hang on to.

Shire now have some time off before their next fixture at home to East Kilbride next Wednesday, October 31.
"Every game in our league will have its own difficulties and we know East Kilbride will prove to be another stern test.
"They will have aspirations to be at the top end of the table, same as us, and quite rightly so with the players they have.
"We feel though if we go out and apply ourselves correctly we can cause them problems.
"They've brought in a lot of experience but we'll have ideas on how to get at them and play to our strengths."
