Matches Played on August 13th

2024 - Clydebank 2-1 Darvel | League (WoSFL Premier)

Clydebank didn’t play very well tonight, and you have got to say most of that was due to the spirited performance of bottom of the table Darvel. But you know what, we won the game. No doubt Darvel boss Michael Oliver will be heading back down to Ayrshire on the team bus wondering how his side didn’t claim a point from this match, but as I said in the St Cadocs report it is as much about being hard to beat as it is scoring goals at the other end.I don’t think anyone believed Darvel are as...

2022 - Troon 3-1 Clydebank | League (WoSFL Premier)

Clydebank’s indifferent pre-season form has well and truly spilled out all over the competitive campaign, as a second defeat in a row – this time to Troon by three goals to one sees the Bankies sitting in the bottom half of the table, and even at this early stage of the season the near future is not exactly filling the support with any great optimism.The Bankies were the better side in the first half of this game and deserved their one goal lead at the break, although it has to be said t...

2011 - Kirkintilloch Rob Roy 3-2 Clydebank | League (Super Premier Division)

Clydebank’s first ever game in the Super Premier League ended in defeat as they lost by the odd goal in five against Rob Roy. It was a valiant effort by the players as they played 70 minutes with only ten men after goalkeeper Hamilton was sent off, however a point at least should have been taken after a series of goalscoring opportunities were spurned.The Bankies started off brightly and a trio of chances came and went. Hobbs headed wide from a MacKinnon cross, then Berry showed superb s...

2008 - Clydebank 1-0 Ashfield | Sectional League Cup

Clydebank made it two wins out of two in the Sectional League Cup by edging out Ashfield by a single goal at Holm park. Not only is the 100% record maintained, but this victory also served to dispel any theories that Holm Park is a ground that the Bankies are unable to win at.With the Bankies failing to win at Holm Park since returning to the Junior set up in 2003, It was easy to see where these jinx theories sprang up from. However, to get this early win under the belt, means that there...

2003 - Clydebank 0-1 Shettleston | Sectional League Cup (Group 6)

Another ex-Bankie came back to haunt the new Clydebank FC as the euphoria of the home match against St Rochs gave way to reality. Following Danny McKelvie's two goals for Johnstone Burgh in the Bankies first game, Gerry Farrell returned to haunt his old team with a bizarre goal.Just after half time Farrell noticed the goalkeeper off his line and hit a shot from what must have been at least 40 yards.The large home crowd of around 300 watched in shock as the ball sailed over Mehiga...

1969 - Stranraer 1-1 Clydebank | League Cup (Group 7)

Daily RecordBoth teams opened cautiously in the opening stages but Munro got a shock goal in the 23rd minute to put Clydebank ahead.He lashed out at a loose ball and with everyone expecting it to bounce past, the ball swerved suddenly into the net.Stranraer's fought back but they had ill luck with tries from Campbell and Rafferty.But right on the interval, Taggart snapped up the equaliser from a slip by King.Clydebank rocked Stranraer with an a...

1966 - Clydebank 3-0 East Stirlingshire | League Cup (Group 9)

Clydebank marked their election to the professional set-up with an impressive 3-0 victory over East Stirlingshire in their opening League Cup tie at Kilbowie Park.With more than 2,000 spectators turning out despite poor weather, there was a sense of occasion as the Bankies took to the field for their first senior fixture. Among those in attendance were several Clydebank town councillors, including Provost Malcolm Turner and former Provost Donald Paterson.Jack Steedman's side unve...

1904 - Clydebank Juniors 2-1 Parkhead | League (Glasgow Junior League)

This Glasgow League match was played at Clydebank on Saturday before almost 3000 spectators. The Juniors included McMillan from Dumbarton among their forwards, while Parkhead committed Barton of Parkhead Athletic.On kicking off, the Juniors were being forced to defend, but ultimately their defence relieved with difficulty. Fast running by Lawrie and McMillan caused the Head's defence considerable anxiety until Gowans came to the rescue and cleared. At length the Juniors forced a corner, ...
