This is for a python script where I am populating my django table using data I have scraped (on line 4).

For a full snapshot of my populate_players.py and models.py files see: https://gist.github.com/fynnab/cdadbe8f5b13269a81e8

The snippet of my code where I'm doing something wrong is:

 # Getting an instance of clubs so I can insert this foreignkey into my models 
club1 = "Arsenal" 
club2 = clubs.objects.get(name = club1);

def add_players(name, position, born, nationality, club, active=True):
# run the script per club

p = players.objects.get_or_create(name=name, position=position, born=born, nationality=nationality, club=club)
return p

Arsenal = json.load(urllib2.urlopen("http://api.football-data.org/alpha/teams/57/players"))

for team in Arsenal['players']:
    name1 = team['name']
    position1 = team['position']
    born1 = team['dateOfBirth']
    nationality1 = team['nationality'] 

    def populate():
        add_players(
            name ='%s',
            position = '%s',
            born = '%d',
            nationality = '%s',
            club = club2
            % (name1, position1, born1, nationality1)
            ) 

And my traceback. 'clubs' is the name of one of my tables in django and a foreign key in my players model. So the problem must be related to that.

Starting player population script...
