With the shadow of an 8-1 defeat looming large like the morning after a gallon of Jaipur we required some serious firepower to overcome such a nonsense result and get our league campaign underway. I received an email a couple of weeks ago after my gumtree campaign looking for teams for our league from a [...]

More Fixture News 6/4/2009
Unfortunately due to the promising start 1811 Witchery FC aren’t able to get a squad together for Wednesday. Gordon’s Napier mate is also unable to get a team together due to them losing their league on the last day of the season. So now I’ve opted for the last resort and asked Wester Hailes if [...]

Match Report vs Wester Hailes Baptist Church FC 30/3/2009
One of the only teams to respond to my gumtree advert with an astonishingly similar history to ourselves, Wester Hailes Baptist Church made the trek out to Fisherrow to be welcomed with a brilliant and balmy East Lothian night. A totally unknown side to anybody they only started up at the end of 2008 and [...]

Match Reaction vs Haddington Athletic FC Juniors 24/3/2009

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 [...]

Match Report vs 1811 Witchery FC 3/3/2009
With two different groups to prove a point to we were massively fired up for the big rematch we had all been waiting for. Primarily we were out to settle the score from the last match where we were drubbed 8-0 on the astroturf at St Daves. Secondly after some intense and seething criticism from [...]

Line Up Announcement 1/3/2009
An idea of Owen’s was to put up the starting 11 on the website to avoid any issues with people claiming they didn’t know they were playing and hence not bringing their match fee with them and other similar nonsense. So for the first team here’s the VAFC starting line up for the game on [...]
