St Andrews United have joined Twitter, www.twitter.com/standrewsutd

[papasken]

Welcome to St. Andrews Utd. I assume you play in the North Region? If so where is the best source for Fixtures and Results?

I forgot to mention Adam of Rutherglen for contacting all clubs and pushing the Twitter and Juniors Info service.

If anyone would care to fill in some HTML pages for East and North leagues get in touch via admin@thejuniors.info

Yes so I am told. Pardon my lack of knowledge of the North and East. I hope to do better in the future

[papasken]

Our new web site www.thejuniors.info will be live tomorrow albeit with limited functionality. We will be adding new features as we go.

Many thanks to Martin Young for spending so much time tonight to get the site live for tomorrow.

If you know a team that isnt represented and have contact with them, why not encourage them to come on board and support the site, which in turn will benefit the Junior game.

I hope your teams game is on tomorrow wherever you are.

Welcome to Twitter for another three new teams

Irvine Meadow

Vale of Leven

Blackburn Utd

You can follow them by visiting The Juniors Twitter at http://twitter.com/thejuniors and selecting following then click follow

All clubs please remember to follow The Juniors or use and use our web site www.thejuniors.info to receive all updates. We will be adding new functionality as we progress and will announce updates as we go.

If you know a club not on Twitter, please encourage them to join and follow us

Supporters of clubs can simply follow the Juniors and/or their own club.

We are still looking for someone to assist with East fixtures and results and someone to help us get the Northern leagues involved.

Clydebank have an official twitter account now but www.thejuniors will continue to follow the two originals tweeters too for the foreseeable future.

All those on board, tweeting and playing against a club who isnt on twitter - give them a nudge in the general direction of The Juniors and encourage them to sign up.

The more clubs we have registered the better the results service will become. Our aim is to have each game updated within 60 seconds of a goal or major incident and the same for half time and full time scores. For this to happen, we require clubs on board, preferably in an official capacity such as a committee member or a genuine supporter of the club(s).

Some of our tweeters are sending professional comments, which is captivating if you have a interest in a particular game.

Imagine the scenario towards the end of the season when promotion and relegation battles are common place. The interest in the Juniors service will be elevated to new heights. Your team could be down 1-0 and relying on a result elsewhere to remain in the league. The service will be invaluable under these circumstances. However, it will only work if we get the majority of the teams working with us.

The interest received in the West of Scotland is promising and I believe we can obtain 90% sign up by the start of next season. The East of Scotland is not as encouraging. Come on guys - this service will promote the game in the media as we have interest from Radion and Newspapers alike. Sign up and join us.

Finally, we have a weekly best tweeter award, just for fun and so others can see what we are looking for during matches.

Two or three new Tweeters signed up this week which is wonderful news for www.thejuniors.info and the clubs the guys are Tweeting for.

I wonder if we could get at least one more before Kick Off tomorrow? Anyone wishing to give it a try? E-Mail admin@thejuniors.info for all the assistance you will require.

I wonder if there are any girls amongst the tweeters and if not, which club will be first to provide the Belle of the Tweeters?

Who is our youngest tweeter?
Who is the oldest?

I will kick it off - I am 49

Indeed it is

I think this is a very good idea. During and after most matches, supporters and players are forever trying to find out various results and information which will also affect their team. To have them all at hand would be a good step forward for Junior football.

I am happy to set up the Thorniewood account, and will speak to a couple of the guys on the committee about updating it during matches (I play, which would seem to rule me out?!) so that we have two or three people who can update for the club. I am happy to keep it going through the week with club news and the like.

Will post the link here when I have it up and running.

[Arthurlie1981]

Did some half time score for the 1st time on Saturday, only problem was that with the Scottish ties kicking off later.

Well done to papasken and the rest of the guys for setting this up, it cerntaly has been interesting and very informative. Keep up the good tweeting guys.

Great to see more people getting involved. I look forward to reading the new tweeters updates.

One thing - this is for all - Some tweeters arent putting in full details which is confusing for some people.

i.e. Goal Kello (Smith).

But who are Kello playing? Catch my drift?

We need Goal Kello 1 (Smith) Muirkirk 0. That way people on the site dont have to search the fixtures to see who they are playing against.

We would be very grateful if everyone could follow this example this weekend
