partickthedog Posted May 7 Report Share Posted May 7 I can remember us playing some sort of friendly against Clydebank at Glenview Park round about 2004. It was when Clydebank were trying to relaunch themselves after their previous iteration went out of business and was acquired by Airdrie United. I think that the game was a fundraiser for Clydebank, and I am not sure if it would have been classified as an "official friendly". It was perhaps more of a "Thistle XI". I do not think it was a pre-season friendly. Maybe it was more of a bounce game on a free weekend mid-season for whatever reason. I am struggling to remember too much about it, but I am fairly sure that we started with a line up not too far from the recognised first team (I have a recollection of Gerry Britton and Adrian Madaschi playing), but by the end we were mainly fielding youngsters. I think that we won fairly convincingly, but Clydebank scored at least one. Can anyone recall any more about this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tried to find any info seems impossible all i could see was this when checking there On Sunday, 12 October 2003, Clydebank F.C. lost 0–4 to Partick Thistle in a friendly match played at Glenhead Park in Duntocher. An estimated crowd of 675 spectators attended the game. This match holds historical significance as it occurred during the "phoenix" revival season of Clydebank F.C. after the original senior club was bought out and relocated to Airdrie in 2002. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Third Lanark Posted May 8 Report Share Posted May 8 Its really good to see how well the Bankies have done since they returned and their crowds. The whole Airdrie United scenario at the time, where they were allowed to take over Clydebank in 2002 was poor form to say the least.

Cant remember specifics but did Clydebank not do something similar to East Stirling in the beginning? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I got a subbutteo soccer scoreboard (maybe around 1970) the printed strip of paper for that team said "E.S. Clydebank". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
