Cobham 1,569 Posted September 16, 2017 Share Posted September 16, 2017 Old Earnock High School in Hamilton. Pulled down and moved to Gorgie. I used to have double Geography in Craig Levein's new office. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperPapac05 3,383 Posted September 16, 2017 Share Posted September 16, 2017 It looks like a fucking High School Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Hilts 12,819 Posted September 16, 2017 Share Posted September 16, 2017 I'd be both raging and gutted if someone built a monstrosity like that at Ibrox. At least we only have a shitey banner covering the staircase to contend with at the moment. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was always New Kilbowie Park, but everyone just called it Kilbowie. The first all seater stadium in the UK, part of which was funded by them selling a certain Mr D. Cooper to us. When I wasabout 11 or 12 I wasn't allowed to go to Rangers away games so instead me and some mates would jump on the then "blue train" from Garscadden down to Singer station and go and watch Clydebank playing other wee teams four or five times a season.

harlands plater 16,977 Posted September 16, 2017 Share Posted September 16, 2017 FFS that's horrendous, only marginally less ugly than the breezeblock and MDF that's now hidden behind banners at the piggery. Looks to me like they've tried to emulate the "glass curtain" look of the Emirates or the quadrants at Old Trafford, but on a budget of £299.

Shame what happened to Clydebank, seen some of them in their later years when they groundshared in Greenock. Think my uncle took me to Kilbowie when i was a kid, it was like bench seats if i remember correctly Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
