What a waste, lain derelict for around 8 years. Now apparently 132 new houses for rent will be constructed on the old site at a cost of £17 million. Affordable housing with families breathing new life into old Love street. Every time we played at home me and ma pals would walk from Scadlock rd and first go up and visit ma great granny who lived in Blythswood Dr did a wee shop for her and she gave us a tanner....maybe a quick run around the fountain gardens then the game a memories Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So very sad that a place filled with years of heart felt memories and emotions is reduced to a piece of barren land, soulless and devoid of personality. A bit like our new stadium.

Saint Garf Posted August 18, 2017 Report Share Posted August 18, 2017 (edited) In a way it still makes me sad to see the place like that. But then you think that people will be making lives there, parents telling their wee one's about Stephen McGinn hitting an absolute screamer from their kitchen into the top corner of the bin shed across the road, kind of nice. I'd like to see the ground marked and remembered in a similar way to Middlesbrough's Ayresome Park. They've marked the old centre circle and a few other key points like the goal posts with metal ornaments and statues between the houses.

Tommy Posted August 18, 2017 Report Share Posted August 18, 2017 Is it just social housing? I'm sure I seen another article that there would be houses to buy as well. They are houses being build in Inchinnan Rd just along from the old ground. Maybe that was you read. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FS Posted August 18, 2017 Report Share Posted August 18, 2017 For a ground to generate an 'atmosphere' it's usually required to have the odd full house, inspirational football days and nights, plus a good few years to allow the thick velour of sentiment to build up in the hearts and minds of the punters. I fully expect this to apply at Greenhill Road in the fullness of time. Perhaps an open top bus parade at the end of this season will help to cement that feeling ? ;-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
