Our guest today is Glasgow-based groundhopper, Chris Marshall. We discuss the Old Firm – Celtic and Rangers – as well as Scotland’s first and oldest club, Queen’s Park, the “hipster’s choice” at Partick Thistle, Clyde and Clydebank, Greenock Morton and others.

We also look at the youth leagues and women’s football in the Glasgow area and take a trip to Cathkin Park, the home of the once-mighty Third Lanark Athletic Club, which folded in 1967.
