The same as FC Bayern, International and Sporting Club de Portugal etc. Yep. Neither had Glasgow in any official registrations or company documentation. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The days of using old railway rail and scaffold tube are long gone. Steel prices are through the roof as are all building material. Plus the amount needed It would require substantial re-terracing too so we are looking at an astronomical amount to deal with this. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jan Vojáček Posted June 11, 2023 Share Posted June 11, 2023 Any word on where Knightswood will be playing? Sure we used to play them at Netherton back in the day, but had heard it had fallen into disrepair a bit. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lowenan Posted June 11, 2023 Share Posted June 11, 2023 On Scotscores St Patrick’s are ranked as the best amateur team in the country, they are also champions of the strongest league. Knightswood is ranked 263, and is on the second level of a weaker league. Weird that the best team didn’t get elected. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what i've seen said they intended to use Vale of Leven's Millburn in the 1st season. Which is a grass pitch and not something that's desired for groundshares anymore. Must have had something acceptable lined up if it was one or the other. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m guessing for most club it is not about being the strongest but who the league scored as having better facilities etc. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shame St Pats couldn't get sorted with a ground share that would appaise the other clubs.... say sharing Dumbarton's paddy field for example 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not my place to go into what their application entailed, but they weren't going to be sharing with us. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GNU_Linux Posted June 11, 2023 Author Share Posted June 11, 2023 For anyone curious Knightswood played in the 2nd tier of the Saturday Morning AFA. Run teams from bairns to 035's. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But this is tier 10. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
