Flybhoy Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 (edited) A rather bizarre fixture this, a friendly at Easter Road between Hibs and Celtic in 1985 due to some bad weather leaving both clubs without a game for a few weeks, the home side winning 6-3 in a game that featured an Ally Brazil hat trick, Celtic players pictured are Tommy Burns, Alan McInally, Davie Provan and Judas Rat b*****d who, thankfully looks in some pain.

The enclosure at Rugby Park always sloped down at that corner due to the houses in behind it, the current stand there does the same and I don't recall the terrace behind the goal being as large, I may be wrong though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

killiepiemuncher Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 Not Rugby Park, looks like Ibrox looking towards the corner where the away fans are housed now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was just assuming it was definitely Ibrox. It's the right type of stanchions, that survived the rebuild. Maybe not though. The terracing might not be high enough - could be Love Street I suppose.

The terracing at Ibrox was much bigger, had passageways, and it had a solid white boundary wall. No tenements on the Govan side either, just industry.

Jackson and Lambert genuinely look delighted at Scotland's equaliser, Collins genuinely looks delighted he scored, in a vain, self loving way. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And nearly stayed up, except Falkirk pulled off an unlikely win at Parkhead IIRC. After relegation they were then a respected midtable First Division side (who annoyed me because Meadowbank could never beat them!!) for many years. Kilbowie wasn't the worst ground to watch football at in those days and the support wasn't too bad either. Seeing these old photos of the Bankies makes me think that perhaps they were the Third Lanark of the modern era- shafted and then disappeared. Although there seems to have been more sympathy for Third Lanark's disappearance over the years than Clydebank's (maybe Scottish football is full of 1965 era embittered East Stirlingshire fans). The sorry history of the Bankies should perhaps ring warning bells for every club in the 1st and 2nd Divisions- no matter how well run you appear to be there's always that chance you won't be around a few seasons later. The reformed by fans Clydebank FC found a home in the West Juniors, doing well there and reaching the Junior Cup final a few years ago. They would benefit from having a ground of their own but I'm not sure the local Council are too keen on helping them out. I'm sure a Bankie will put me right on that score though. Playing at Maryhill this season but will move back to Holm Park as joint tenants with Yoker, following the redevelopment which started last week. Unsure what will happen next season as far as on the field matters go. We did vote to move the club into the EOS league as it would provide a path into the senior leagues, but with ongoing chat about the West region signing up to the pyramid I think it’s currently a case of wait and see. Looking good for the short term future. Having a permanent ground sorted and being able to build with that base is definitely a huge positive for us. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
