G_&_T Posted December 21, 2022 Share Posted December 21, 2022 Exciting times. How much would it cost to upgrade Crownpoint? Where would the money come from? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Original story with Finnart was a pitch on Glasgow Green or more precise Fleshers Haugh. If the city go pro the locals then the Clyde gig is a no no having spent 95% of their history outside the city. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Feels like yesterday. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PossilYM Posted December 22, 2022 Share Posted December 22, 2022 Leadership of Clyde FC have did a lot of talking over the best part of 40 years. Even going by reading posts on Pie and Bovril, Clyde have approached Shettleston Juniors, listened to and then quietly laughed at. Rutherglen Glencairn, listened to then laughed at. Don't even mention the East Kilbride story that must be over 50 years old. I wish Clyde FC every success with the Crownpoint gig but........ 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also an offer on the table for Shawfield to Mr King, which was refused. That ship has since sailed unfortunately 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we were initially looking at EK circa 1960 with an attempt to take over their junior side. Then Third Lanark were looking seriously at EK around the same time - wonder what happened to them? Then the botched attempt to take over Accies in 1970. I’d forgotten about Rutherglen! There was also talk of Lesser Hampden and Rosebery Park too IIRC? IMHO and based on everything above I honestly don’t see Crownpoint happening- although I’m happy to be proved wrong Obviously the fantasy option is I have a good Euromillions win and buy Shawfield 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bothendsburning Posted December 23, 2022 Share Posted December 23, 2022 Amid talk of a move to East Kilbride in the mid 1960s, a Clyde director was quoted in the Evening Times saying "It's slow death for us at Shawfield". 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From a cursory glance, I guess it's more likely to be a Raith Rovers or Brechin-esque development. Assuming that building on Cubie Street is it's own thing leaving the two areas behind the goals to have a traditionalish stand/changing facilites. Of course the small terraces like Kelty have are probably viable up the sides. It'll certainly be a scale down from what we're used to visiting Clyde but you can still fit a tidy facility in. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

haufdaft Posted December 23, 2022 Share Posted December 23, 2022 Seriously, are we allowing an important midfielder to walk away with two matches still to be played before the transfer window opens. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's the pitch with the running track around it, I'm afraid, as that already has an existing stand. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
