  1. Talked about year after year, both winter shutdowns and bigger leagues. Nothing ever comes of it.
  2. If their premier class why would they want to play in the championship.
  3. It was a footbridge with pipes strapped to one side. Has been shut off for some time now due to total deterioration of footpath. Sir William Arrol and Co also made the pedestrian lifting bridge across the White Cart Water at Carlile Quay (off New Sneddon Street) but this has been disabled from lifting for over 30 years and has been closed to traffic since 1997, the structure being deemed unsafe.
  4. A brisk 15 minutes walk via Feggie and you could watch the saints next season.
  5. pod

    Where ?

    Junior club, but not Renfrew. Johnstone or Barrhead.
  6. An ambulance chaser more than likely.
  7. Surprised all the players haven't sued the club for having to wear last seasons strip.
  8. Who, your employer or the person who stab you in the leg. Lets mastermind a plan with our workmates and we could all sue our bosses. Oh the possibilities.
  9. Only when they going around pushing players.
  10. Manager and two assistants.......
  11. Need to get up earlier to beat you salmonbuddie.

  13. This is the White City Sports Stadium, which was situated opposite Bellahouston Park on Paisley Road West. Speedway made its debut there in June 1928 and continued until 1931 before closing halfway through that season. The track reopened on Saturday 6th May 1939 with 15,000 watching the Glasgow Lions taking on Newcastle in a challenge match. The season was curtailed by the outbreak of war and it was not until 1946 when, because of the Wembley Lions, the Glasgow team name was changed to the Glasgow Tigers. The post-war boom did not last forever and after the 1953 season the Glasgow promotion had to sell their top riders with the inevitable result. Speedway racing returned to White City in 1964 until the last ever fixture, the Glasgow Open Championship, at the end of September 1968. The spiritual home of the Glasgow Tigers was demolished a few years later during construction of the M8 motorway and is now the site of a police headquarters. This unique 1960's snapshot was taken by Norman Crawford.
  14. Hoping or wishful thinking.
  15. and if no, the next weekend.
