Organised by Phil Hay of the 1997s, the club are now in the great position of potentially benefiting from a range of clothing and kit courtesy of The Daily Record and Sunday Mail in return for tokens collected from these newspapers starting from Saturday March 13th. In order to maximise the potential from this offer Pumpherston United FC are asking all parents and guardians to ask their family, friends and work colleagues to keep tokens from these newspapers from Saturday 13th and to deposit these tokens at the club house or with coaches for the next 10 weeks of the promotion. Pumpherston are proud of the support they receive from family, friends and the local community and hope that this campaign will provide valuable kit for the club that can be used for years to come.

U13 Livingston FC Boys Club Lions v Pumpherston United (League):

20-02-2010

Pumpherston United 1997 continued their ascent on the B league table with a 6-0 win over Livingston FC Boys Club Lions on the Field Turf at Livingston FC's Stadium. The game was switched from Howden due to the intended venue being frozen solid. The third generation astro turf facilities at the town's Senior Club allowed the game to go ahead despite the current cold snap. Six first half goals from Pumpherston including a great 25 yard volley from Callum, a hat trick from Nathan and goals from Jakob and Ryan were enough to earn both points after a stalemate in the second 35 minutes provided no goals.

Bob Lambie Cup 1st - round tie:

14-02-2010

Pumpherston United 95 progressed into the second round of the Bob Lambie B League Cup after a 3-0 home win over Polbeth United this morning. Pumpherston got off to a flying start with a goal from James within the first minute of the match. The home team kept their advantage right through the first half, going in 1-0 to the good after 40 minutes. Six minutes into the second half and Pumpherston extended their lead; a packed Polbeth United box tried in vain to clear their lines however James struck the ball into the back of the net, aided by an unfortunate Polbeth Defender who could do little to keep the ball out. Polbeth were reduced to 10 players shortly after goal number two but Pumpherston had to wait a further 15 minutes to make the numbers count, a well taken goal by Angus. Pumpherston retain home advantage for round 2 when they welcome Mid Calder Colts.

RESULT - U13 Pumpherston United 2-1 Broxburn Athletic Colts United (League):

13-02-2010

Pumpherston United extended their 100% league run this morning in a close run game against Broxburn Athletic Colts United. Pumpherston enjoyed the majority of possession however Broxburn's defence and particularly their excellent keeper kept Pumpherston at bay. Half way through the first half it was the visitors that took the lead although Pumpherston managed to get back on level terms before the half drew to a close. Persistance finally saw the home team break the visitor's steadfastness once more as Pumphy edged into the lead during the second half. Broxburn almost had the last word late on but Pumpherston managed to take both points on offer. An exciting game in Pumpherston and a great display from everyone involved.

Draw 12 has been completed but no entries managed to match the winning numbers so next week's draw will be a rollover. The prize fund will be £85.

95's in County Cup exit:

07-02-2010

Pumpherston United 95 exited the County Cup in the 3rd round following an 8-1 away defeat at Bathgate Rose. Pumpherston made things more difficult than it should have been when they conceded a goal in the very first minute. Bathgate went on to score a further 3 goals in the first without reply however it wasn't all one way traffic. Pumpherston had their own share of chances but couldn't find the back of the net on 3 very good occasions. Pumpherston netted first in the second half after some fine work down the right wing resulted in a composed finish from Wayne however, this goal was quickly cancelled out by a fine Bathgate strike that also dulled any hopes of Pumpherston getting back into contention. Pumpherston continued to press but Bathgate Rose showed their finishing prowess adding another 3 before the final whistle blew. A battling performance from the visitors against one of the strongest teams at this age level in the County.

Soccer School Cancelled...

04-02-2010:

Due to the current weather conditions and frozen pitch conditions; tonight's Soccer School training has been cancelled. We're aware that all the soccer school players were looking forward to getting back into action after the winter break however, safety first as they say. Hopefully we'll see you all next week. 

Freezing weather continues...

Pumpherston United's fixtures were called off for the 11th week in a row due to the continued freezing weather conditions. With temperatures still frequently dipping below 0°C it's anyone's guess as to when our teams will next kick a ball in a competative match. The players are very eager to get going and despite the regular postponements, training has continued throughout the cold snap and the lads are looking to hit the ground running.

Draw ten was completed this evening and the above numbers netted Brian Anderson a cheque for £270. The cheque was presented by collector Tam Batten. Pumpherston United would like to take the opportunity to congratulate Brian on his winnings and to thank all of our entrants over the past 10 weeks. We hope that you will join us as the jackpot builds again, starting from £50 for the next draw on Thursday 4th of February.
