On a Tuesday night in the week before Christmas more than six hundred turned up at Borough Briggs to see Elgin City beat the Clyde 4-2 among them this absolute hero. Where did he come from? I doubt it was Bridgeton. Where do Clyde get their followers from these days?

Are Clyde not in Hamilton now? 
 

I remember ES Clydebank what’s more I remember East Stirlingshire. I was at one of their last games in the league against the Hibs at Easter Road. ‘Shire brought about ten fans with them. What a racket they made supporting their team but even more so protesting the theft of their Club.

Yes, you are right - the lease ran out at Broadwood. See on their website the plan is to return eventually to Glasgow. Would love to see Third Lanark, my grandfather's club, be resurrected.

The Shire had a great social club back in the day and were partial to a wee cultural evening every now and then.

 

Knew a few guys who played for them in mid-late 80s and went to see them a few times.

 

Shame what happened to them.

Agreed. The Thirds of Hilley, Harley and Gray were rattling good entertainment. Jocky Robertson is probably the shortest goalkeeper I’ve ever seen in too football. He had long arms, though.
