Can anybody pick me up for training, my car is in the garage and the missus is on nights, so I've got a babysitter to cover but need a lift there........
We definitely don't have a match this coming Sunday, and at the moment it looks highly unlikely that we will be able to arrange a Rovers Vets' Team Friendly match either, because we don't have a pitch ourselves and we cannot find any opponents with a pitch who do not...

Sunday 10th October...Home to Broxbourne Rangers Old Boys

One or two of our 'more competitive' players have been complaining over the past few days that we are 'too nice' as a team and that's why we have lost our first two League matches this season. We are not 'nasty' or 'hard' enough...and here's the proof !
Surprisingly...
Hey
I am sorry for my reaction tonight, I just got totally fucked off with the way things were going.
we had the attack Vs defence, which I still think is a great exercise and although I did not have to do too much I enjoyed it.
We then had the 7 a side game...
Laurence is out filming tonight so asked me to post the following urgent message.
He has received a phone call from Enfield Council asking him to warn all our players that they have discovered that the showers at Hazelwood are infected with Legionnaires' disease....
Just washed & sorted out the kit, etc, from Sunday and we lost one Mitre Tactic training ball, a pair of club shinpads and two full reels of black sock tape.
How ?!!!
Total waste of club money.
At the moment, we have no match arranged for Sunday 26th September and by all accounts we are unlikely to be given one at short notice.
I am therefore looking to try and a arrange a first-ever Edmonton Rovers Veterans match on that date instead, and I am looking for...
This coming Sunday we are Away to Turnford Geese at Wormley Playing Fields in another Division One match.
Most of our players should know how to get there by now as we have played there enough times, but if not, the postcode is EN10 7QF...albeit for a barn about hal...
This coming Wednesday night, we are having our first midweek training session (during a season) for about 6 years. It is something that most of our players have been demanding for ages, so hopefully they will make an effort to turn up on a regular basis.
We have b...
I have started a new thread for this to make things easier.
I have just been over Hazelwood and had a chat with the Broomfield Manager. He was over there helping the Council groundsmen put the pitches up. (I'll report on that on the AFC Cheshunt match thread).
He...

At the moment, it looks like we have enough current and prospective new players willing to attend training more-or-less every week from this coming Thursday night onwards.
However, finding a floodlit grass or Astroturf area (e.g. half a full-size pitch) to use bet...
This coming Sunday sees us playing our first ORC Sports Waltham (Sunday) Football League Division One match of the season Away to East Herts. Yes I know. We couldn't have been given a harder fixture !

Good morning Edmonton Rovers FC, I have very excitement in contacting you to fulfil my dream of playing football one time again, I now living in dalston london and after many years I want to have opportunity of playing the beautiful game one more. In my childhood I h...

Just had a phone call from Denis Coventry saying that Daley's photo is (predictably) not acceptable because his head is too big in it and the background is more of a mottled grey than plain white.
That means he will not be registered for our first League match on...

I would like to apologise to all our players for the e-mail(s) I sent out yesterday.
The replies I have had back this morning are all correct. I am going way over the top and inadvertently destroying the team spirit we are slowly building up.
Obviously I don't me...
