Montrose Roselea Football Club are a Scottish Junior football club based in the town of Montrose, Angus. Formed in 1930 and nicknamed "the Lea", they play their home games at Broomfield Park, a relatively undeveloped facility in the north of the town which has room for around 1,800 spectators. Their colours are green with a black and white trim.
They were members of the Tayside Junior League, but are presently competing in the Scottish Junior Football Association, East Region which they, along with all other Tayside Junior clubs became a part in 2002. Playing second fiddle to the senior Montrose, success has been sparse during their years of existence however in recent years the success has been beyond a club of its size.
The club applied to move from the East Region of the Scottish Junior Football Association to join the North Region and this was accepted for the beginning of season 2016–17.
