Fartak Moscow

Founded as  AEK Intercourse  in September 2011, the club was renamed to  Junior Dragons  in October 2011, and finally to  Fartak Moscow  in November 2011. As founding members of the Friday League at Goals Norwich in 2011, the club saw little success in their first competitive season under captain Felix Dixey, finishing bottom of the table, and being relegated to League 1. The second season saw Fartak once again relegated into League 2, where they remain today. Recently, under the new captaincy of Sebastian Sanders, the team have seen much improvement, and are regularly winning games. Midway through their time in Five-a-side football, Fartak Moscow hit the doldrums and could not find a win anywhere. Subsequently Felix Dixey was stripped of the captaincy and his managerial duties. Since this decision Fartak Moscow has been on the rise and have finished an unprecented 2nd in this years league 2 in The Norfolk League

Rivalries
Fartak Moscow's largest rivalry is against Ings F.C. When a match between the two clubs is played they contest the Thickthorn Roundabout Cup. Fartak Moscow boast the better record of the two clubs winning 4, drawing 3 and losing just one of the 8 games played between the clubs. Rivalries previously existed with the Emile Heskey Youth Academy and Moby Dick FC both of these clubs have since folded. Aswell as this there was a great rivalry between Fartak Moscow and FC Big Guns and when Fartak triumphed 9-6 FC Big Guns was shut down by its owners in shame and due to the financial implications of not winning a game that season.

Scandal
While Fartak have been playing at goals they have often had a certain referee named Murray Grant. Other teams have often questioned his decisions while they have been playing Fartak as they often appear to be biased. This referee has often been heard telling the Fartak players 'any contact and go down, I will give free kick.' This was brought to the attention of Goals Soccer Centre but no further action was taken.
