Clyde have got an amazing history. Traditionally they were the 3rd biggest club in Glasgow & won the Scottish Cup 3 times. However the slum clearances of the 60s greatly reduced their catchment area in the east end of Glasgow and after falling on hard times, they were evicted from their ground Shawfield by its owners the Scottish Greyhound Association in 1994.

After that they moved to Cumbernauld but their spiritual home remains in Glasgow and there have been a number of attempts to move back there over the years including two years ago when they were refused an application to use a new sports facility in Crownpoint Sports Complex
