Edinburgh United F.C. are a Scottish junior football club from Edinburgh. Formed in 1985, the club quickly entered the junior grade of football. They presently compete in the East Region and play their home games at Paties Road Recreation Ground in the Colinton area of the city. This ground holds around 2,500 spectators, 200 of whom can be seated in the fairly well developed stand at the site.
Edinburgh United play in black and white strips (uniforms) and usually attract a home following somewhere between 50 and 100 spectators.
They are also the only "junior" club in Edinburgh, with all other "non-league" clubs either playing in the "senior" East of Scotland Football League or the local amateur leagues.
