Bankie Posted September 12, 2015 Share Posted September 12, 2015 Gartcairn and Rossvale must be excluded considering they've only been around 5 minutes as junior teams. How would it work with Newmains, do you include the Coltness years. Does Clydebank include the senior days? I take by fan you mean actually watching the team play rather than just hearing about them. Btw you'd certainly be special if your a Junior fan turned player since the 1950s. Crowds have completely collapsed for most Junior teams over the last 60 years. I also reckon most Junior teams would give anybody a go as a trialist for a few quid donation. 15 minutes of fame and all that. Must be worth a £100 to most Junior teams. Clydebank does include the senior days. I was lucky enough to play with Kevin (Stanley - who Bankieboy talks about) in the Bankies Supporters team from the early 90s up until just before he went junior. Kevin could easily have went senior but preferred to go and watch the Bankies on a Saturday afternoon. Was great to see him run out at Vale of Clyde in our first competitive game back, along with another team mate Davie Reid. These were definitely guys living the dream.

auldgeezer Posted September 13, 2015 Share Posted September 13, 2015 Kevin, Jambo and a few others I think who played with Clydebank Supporters on a Sunday but with St Joseph's on a Saturday. Have to admire their loyalty and support of Clydebank. Played against them loads of times and always enjoyed it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have to admire their loyalty and support of Clydebank. Played against them loads of times and always enjoyed it. Kevin, his brother Graham (nicknamed Des), and striker Terry Kelly all played with St Joes at some point. Jammy (who I think you mean) played Saturday morning with Forest along with a few others in the team (myself included). The Supporters did indeed play on a Sunday. The Scottish Supporters league was a great league to play in back then. Was great to see guys who had followed the team turning out in the club colours. Jammy has been chairman of the Bankies since we came back into the juniors, and is also part of the coaching team now. Who did you play with Auldgeezer?

glensmad Posted March 26, 2019 Share Posted March 26, 2019 Thomas "Deco" Kilmartin has always told me that he is a Cambuslang Rangers supporter, even during the 18-month period where he left Cambuslang during the season to join us along the road at Glencairn. He was always going to go back to Cambuslang when the time was right, and sure enough he did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[emoji15] However as the topic was about current players thats why I listed Jordan, who as you rightly concurred,was and still is a fan.[emoji12] Sent from my SM-G361F using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
