Match Report vs Dunbar FC 18/8/2009
A long awaited return to league business beckoned for VAFC and an official debut for the new strips. A trip to Dunbar is always approached with a certain measure of trepidation, how do we get out there? How on earth do I rouse a squad of players to go straight from work to sunny Dunny? [...]

Summer Catch Up
Howdy, apologies for the lack of activity but i spent most of July in LA completely devoid of footballing action. It was a difficult time but was great to get a fantastic break somewhere totally different. Plenty action to comment on now though.

However all is not lost, I am working hard to find another team at outrageously short notice and [...]

Diego Does The Damage 4/6/2009
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.

Match Report vs Blackhall St Columbas 28/5/2009
Following another successful Gumtree campaign I managed to arrange a fixture against Blackhall St Columbas, a team set to play in next season’s Church Leagues. This match eventually turned out to be our final farewell to Fisherrow for the 2008/2009 season due to the usual nonsense behaviour from the council closing down the pitches for [...]

Some major developments in the footballing world in the past couple of days. Firstly the pressing on of establishing the much lauded summer league. After only managing to find 4 teams ready to aprticipate its a little poor but still proves a vital chance for VAFC to scoop some early silverware.
