Quick Update 19/4/2009

Thought I’d best kee you all up to date. I’m currently eating lots of chorizo and doing some wiring in my uncle’s house near Valencia. However VAFC is never far from my mind.

Latest News 9/3/2009

Alright, not really much to report but felt a wee update was necessary. Feedback from the Witchery game is 100% positive. Everybody was wholly able to walk away from the game with head held high and the progress from the last match is truly massive. Consensus is that we are building up a good head [...]

Update 23/2/2009

Alright guys, some major steps forward today. Firstly during a massively entertaining 19th Century Literature and Culture lecture I text Gordon Mackenzie for a check up on his progress and also to pick up the number for Ewen Amos from 1811 Witchery FC. His reply contained good news, and bad news. In customary fashion I’ll [...]

A Big Parcel of Jiggery Pokery Wrapped In Red Tape 16/2/09

Howdy, after the afforementioned unprecedented levels of snow and no phonecall from the Brunton regarding a cancellation I grew curious and decided to drop them a line. Peculiarly I wasn’t put on hold at any stage and wasn’t forced to listen to some utter trash on repeat and my call was answered promptly. I asked [...]

Stormy Weather 12/2/2009

Bugger. 2 inches of snow last night/this morning. On a rare visit to Fisherrow I seem to have brought the weather with me from Polwarth. I lived in Fisherrow for just about 10 years and I’ve seen snow lie here twice in that entire time, god knows why it’s chosen to lie this time. I’m [...]

Update 11/2/2009

Howdy, just a quick shout for a couple wee things. Firstly I’ve been down to Fisherrow today and there must have been a match booked because the floodlights were on, but for some weird reason it didn’t go ahead. I’m assuming it failed a pitch inspection before the match went ahead because the floodlights went [...]

Update 10/2/2009

Howdy, since it’s the end of my working week seems appropriate for a wee update. Finally got word today from Paul Harkins, Musselburgh Baptist Church (aka the God Squad) FC’s gaffer and his boys are ripe for a game a week today on the 17th at good old Fisherrow. Standard procedure, 7pm kick off, want [...]

Update 8/2/2009

Howdy, still an uphill struggle to organise a fixture, mainly because the geezer from the God Squad still hasn’t text me back yet. His tardiness continues to infuriate me. Unfortuntely the pitches at Fisherrow are still resembling the aftermath of the battle of the Somme with a few syringes thrown in for good measure. Still [...]

Latest News 4/2/2009

After a fairly epic encounter on Sunday there is a hunger in the squad to pick up some more fixtures and start getting some victories on the board. No fixture this Sunday though, due to a variety of factors. Firstly the short notice once again meant nobody was willing to take us up on a [...]

Update on the Update

After spending most of today on the phone to the greater and the good of every Amateur football league in South East Scotland trying to chase us a place in the league I was left exhausted and disappointed. Firstly exhausted at the, not one, not two, not three, but six people I was passed to [...]
