Here I am once again apologising for a pretty lax period in keeping you up to date. As we are pretty much on the estimated birthdate of VAFC I’d like to take this opportunity to congratulate everyone who’s ever helped in anyway, whether as players, kit washers, or just nutcases pretending to be managers (cheers wullie). I’d like to especially thank Nigel for generously paying for our excellent new kit which everyone loves, and I can assure you we’ll be in the pub more once we get back to playing at Fisherrow.
A wee housekeeping note, the vafc2008.com domain expires next month so i’ve bought a new one, volunteerarmsfc.com which will come in to use probably next week sometime, but expect some bother with the changeover.
The year ended on a bit of a sour note with a defeat by Sykes, who then proceeded to further prove their illigitemacy by refusing to pay for a cancelled pitch. All of us at VAFC wish Barrie Wilkins a less than successful 2010.
As of next week we will have a 5-a-side department too. I’ve entered a team into the Ideal Leisure 5-a-side set up at Napier University. Unfortunately the timing means only us layabouts will be able to play as its Wednesdays at 4:30pm. However im sure we will still taste sweet success and I might even nab the ever elusive goal and reveal one of the many superb celebrations ive been stockpiling.
Anyway expect more in depth coverage throughout 2010, and the next proper game is only around the corner as we are in negotiations with our pals at 1811 Witchery and Teuchters FC to sort something out very shortly.
Keep the faith
