History and interesting facts

History:

Formed in July 2004, after playing 5's for a number of months I thought that it would be good to join a 11 a side league.

Since then we have evolved and now have players from all round Glasgow. We are committed to playing good old fashion football with style, flair and entertainment.

We finally achieved promotion on the last day of the season and are now playing in the 2nd division which is a result of hard work, determination and great football played by every player througout the season.

5th season and we are looking forward to some tough and entertaining games this season in the 2nd division of the Tartanweb.com Saturday Morning Amateur League.

We welcome and encourage everyone to come watch our games and enjoy the action.
