      Your "Grass Roots" Team

      (Apologies if this has been done already, couldn't see it anywhere)

      Thought it would be a good idea if I created a new topic where everyone can post their Junior/Amateur football teams results and how the team are doing overall. Also if you do play for a team, tell us about your position, past goals you've scored (right or wrong end  ;) ), how your team compares to other teams in the league etc.

      I'll get us going....I play for a Sunday league Amateur football team called Mid Calder United (Can find us on bebo just search MidCalder United) Play all over the midfield really, usually find myself playing left wing but have been switched into the middle which I prefer. Not really a great team if I'm honest but the banter is superb with the lads. We are improving every game though. Got a rival team in the league called The Grove Bar, who we recently drew 4-4 with, not a bad result considering we were 3-1 down with 10 men. Recently got put out the Scottish Cup by Tranent 2-0  :( Hard one to take but the league is the priority.

      This Sunday we have Stewartfield who are a poor side that we should beat so fingers crossers, won't be involved in this one due to sprained ligaments in me ankle but not so bad as I get to watch the Reds on Sunday afternoon.

      Feel free to post on your teams success.

      Play a weekly game every friday morning at 9am sharp. Its a mix of brits, yanks and the odd mexican here in LA. We play half pitch on an awesome astro turf field for about $21 an hour which is dirt. We have a lot of liverpool fans who always wear their red shirts. Today though we got stuffed 12-8...our lazy, but deadly norwegian striker had work and we missed him badly. Doesn't help that our team are the heavier drinkers with a few smokers. Standard ain't bad...got the whole range from sh*te to pretty good. Really fun and look forward to it each week...even got a goal today though I missed a tonne. Next week I will be awesome though!
