2021 - Blantyre Vics 1-3 Clydebank | League (WoSFL Premier)

Clydebank took all three points at Castle Park against Blantyre Vics in what could only best be described as a stuffy game. On a dry pitch with was not very conducive to passing football, Bankies top scorer Nicky Little grabbed a double and Lee Gallacher made sure towards the end. Both of Little’s goals came from the most basic of route one football, but he won’t be caring about that too much as he overtook Blair Millar to become the Bankies third highest scorer of all-time.With one eye ...

2018 - Auchinleck Talbot 4-0 Clydebank | League (West Region Premiership)

Clydebank’s unbeaten start to the season came to an end with a 4-0 thumping at the hands of Auchinleck Talbot at Beechwood Park this afternoon. The Bankies will feel the score is a bit harsh overall, but did not look likely to come back after the loss of the first goal. In fact, it wasn’t too much of a surprise that the home side added to their tally.It could have been all so different after Nicky Little had a dreadful miss after only three minutes. He was put clean through on the goalke...

2012 - Beith Juniors 1-4 Clydebank | League (Super Premier Division)

Clydebank couldn’t have hoped for a better start to the new Premier League Season as they got off to a flyer by thumping Beith by four goals to one. Goals from Gold, McPherson, Hailstones and a Wilson own goal turned around an early strike by Reid for the home side.Much has been made of the fact that Clydebank lost two of their stars from last season, but if this kind of form can be maintained then the loss of MacKinnon and Strachan will be no more than a distant memory. This was the nin...

2010 - Clydebank 1-2 Ashfield | Sectional League Cup

The Bankies slumped to another defeat in their final sectional league cup match against Ashfield as they turned in a woeful first half performance. Two down at the interval, Darian MacKinnon pulled one back in a better second half showing, but any chance of a comeback was quashed by two straight red cards that left the Bankies with one of their worst ever finishes in this tournament.Ashfield have been scoring freely in the group stages, whilst the Bankies have been struggling for form an...

Clydebank kept their hopes alive of qualifying for the Quarter Final draw of the Sectional League Cup with victory over ten man Ashfield.Budgie McGhie made several changes to the line up for today's game, which was played in torrential rain from start to finish. Colin Sutherland and Davie Carr were restored to the starting eleven, with keeper Chris Prior dropping out in favour of a trialist.The opening exchanges in the match were fairly muted as both teams tried to get to grips w...

1982 - Clydebank 0-2 Hibs | League Cup (Group 3)

Clydebank slithered to a decisive defeat against Premier League Hibs at Kilbowie on Wednesday night.The Edinburgh side, never looking in any danger, strolled through the game with almost embarrassing ease.It took a last-minute goal to settle the scoreline, but Hibs always looked capable of stepping up the pace at any time and making sure of two League Cup points.A heavy rain shower in the first half made the surface slippy, but instead of quickening the tempo, it seemed t...

1906 - Parkhead 0-0 Clydebank Juniors | League (Glasgow Junior League)

A fairly good crowd was present at Helenslea Park, Parkhead, on Saturday, when the Clydebank Juniors opposed the local club in the League competition. The game opened well, and it was evident that there would be few dull moments. The Juniors were first to make any headway, and for about twenty minutes the Parkhead defenders were kept busy. After this, however, they took matters more seriously, but although they made one or two determined efforts to get through, they got no reward. The Juniors ha...
