The following photographs, press cuttings, advertisements, information and statistics are all available to view and download off the internet. A wee bit of time and patience with your research, together with copious amounts of coffee and John Player Special cigarettes, you too could go on a journey of discovery that gives you an insight to the cricket that has been lost and the current cricket that could be lost in the very near future. My thanks to the following databases for their information. North Lanarkshire Council Archives Over the last 25 years, the cricket that we have grown up with, knew and loved has changed. The Western Union has merged with the Glasgow League, the Scottish Counties championship has folded, the Strathmore Union has merged with the Perthshire league and the East of Scotland Cricket Association has picked up all the waifs and strays. The Scottish National Cricket League arrived and the security of a centenary of tradition changed. For the better? I will leave you to make up your own minds on that question. The Western District Cricket Union currently has 32 clubs that play Saturday cricket (61 teams). Add the 5 evening/Sunday League clubs, the total becomes 37 clubs in all. 1) Active Life 2) Ardrossan 3) Bute County 4) Galloway 1) Ayr 5) GHK 2) Clydesdale 6) Glasgow Accies 3) Drumpellier 7) GU Staff 4) Dumfries 1) BBC Scotland 8) Hamilton 5) East Kilbride 2) Clyde 9) Helensburgh 6) Ferguslie 3) Fire Service 10) Hillhead 7) Greenock 4) GU Biologists 11) Inverclyde 8) Kelburne 5) Queens Park 12) Irvine 9) Poloc 13) Kilmarnock 10) Renfrew 14) Motherwell 11) Uddingston 15) Prestwick 12) Weirs 16) Scot Indians 13) West of Scotland 17) St Michaels 18) Vale of Leven 19) Victoria 25 years ago in the west, we had a strong Western Union with three separate championships therein. The junior sections were flourishing and loads of talented youngsters were emerging into their first teams. The Scottish Cup was dominated by the Western Union. The inter District championship was dominated by the West. The Cockspur Cup was normally won by the West. The Glasgow League was in its full pomp. Clubs were emerging that were giving the Western Union sides a challenge in cup competition. Prestwick were to the fore with Irvine and NKOA right behind them. But it started to go horribly wrong, and in many cases, terminal. Why?

Can you name 10 that are no more? How about 15? 20? Surely there cannot be more than 20 that have folded? Anchor, Jerviswood, Old Grammarians, Kilmacolm, Clydebank, Lennox, Eaglesham, Rolls Royce, North Kelvinside, Old Aloysians, Babcocks & Wilcox, Bishopbriggs, Alan Glenns FP, Garrowhill, Milngavie & Bearsden, Kelvinside Academicals, Woodhall, Dunlop, Hillend, Scotts, Greenock Wanderers, Ardeer, Cumbernauld, Lenzie, Thornliebank, Hyndland and that is just some of the teams that played Saturday cricket.

Brown photographed a cricket match on open ground off Great Western Road. The ground was at Burnbank, which was the home of Glasgow Academicals Football Club and briefly (in 1875) of Glasgow Rangers FC. All-England Elevens were frequent visitors to Scotland in the 1880s and 1890s, to play cricket teams such as West of Scotland and Clydesdale. In 2011, Hillhead are hoping to be able to use Birkmyre Park in Kilmacolm for 12 weeks of the season, but the priority has to be: (a) Will they return to Hughenden? (b) If not, can they permanently re-locate to Birkmyre Park? (c) Are we witnessing yet another death of an established cricket club? In the Luftwaffe aerial photograph above, Hamilton Crescent is circled in white, Hughenden is in yellow and Balgray is in red. In 2011, Hamilton Crescent will be the only ground to have senior cricket played at it. A group of gentlemen suitably attired to represent Glasgow in the annual inter-city cricket match against Edinburgh in 1873. The match, which was played at the West of Scotland Cricket Cub ground at Hamilton Crescent, Partick, was drawn. At one time, the inter-city match (played each year from 1872 until 1894) was regarded as one of the highlights of the Scottish cricket season. A good crowd was assured, which raised revenue to help develop the sport. Over the years, honours were fairly even between the teams, but disputes over the introduction of professionalism finally killed off the fixture. Sounds familiar? Golfhill Cricket Club was in Dennistoun. It was apparently the finest cricket square in Scotland and there was a huge public outcry when the Glasgow Corporation folded the club as they required the land to build Whitehill Secondary School. Horace Wass was probably the most famous player Golfhill had. He had been a professional footballer for Chesterfield. As one of the club's most significant players, Horace was awarded two benefit matches, the first, in 1929-30 against Sheffield Wednesday and the second against Hearts in 1935- 1936.

Knightswood was Glasgow's largest housing scheme, with a total of 6,714 houses built on both sides of Great Western Road from 1923. Four new shopping centres, eight churches and six schools were also provided. Amenities included a nine hole golf course, pitch and putt greens, tennis courts and football and cricket grounds. Richmond Park had a cricket ground within its setting. It was surrounded with bushes and trees and the pitch had a grass square until the mid 1980’s when it was replaced with an all-weather astro-turf wicket. There

Cricket in Scotland, both women's and men's, is at a key stage in its journey towards becoming a mainstream, and thus fully self sustaining, sport in the country. Over the past four years, through its participation work, successes in the international arena and its community work, Cricket Scotland has raised the profile of the sport in Scotland and put it firmly back on the Scottish sporting map. But there is much further to go in all three areas, particularly in driving Cricket Scotland forward to become a Full Member of the International Cricket Council, so that Scotland is playing at the top level of the sport and achieves the increase in income which that produces to support the grass roots game. Cricket is the second most popular sport globally with 105 members of the ICC; building relationships and alliances with other cricketing nations throughout the world to help deliver Cricket Scotland's strategic objectives will be an important aspect of the role. For all those reasons, we are looking for an exceptional leader to shape and deliver an ambitious new strategy, lead a talented team and grow the revenue (including from new commercial and broadcasting partnerships). The position offers a unique opportunity to lead a sport in Scotland to the top level of a truly global game.
  • Simd Analysis: Future Projections

    Simd Analysis: Future Projections

    SIMD ANALYSIS: FUTURE PROJECTIONS 1. Background and Introduction 1.1. This paper analyses the reasons behind the recent decline of deprivation in Glasgow, projects these trends towards 2015, and comments on their likely implications. It is based on a presentation made to the Community Planning Executive Group on 2nd June 2010, which itself came from a series of events held in autumn 2009/spring 2010, involving over 120 people from council and non- council organisations in Glasgow. 1.2. The gains Glasgow made in reducing its share of Scotland’s deprivation have been the result of long-term trends that have been operating over the last two or more decades. Identifying both the trends that led to the current situation, and those currently in operation which can reasonably be presented as being influential in Glasgow towards 2015, form the basis of the projections in this paper. The main indicator used has been the Scottish Index of Multiple Deprivation (SIMD), and the analysis of three waves (2004, 2006 and 2009) has been supported by the use of other indicators. Looking at the absence of deprivation as well as at areas defined by deprivation includes all communities and gives a rounded analysis of the city. 1.3. The trends that have shaped the city at present are long-term and have been in operation since the 1990s, if not earlier. It follows that trends that can be identified in the present day will be those that influence the city by 2015. Their general direction has been to accelerate Glasgow’s development to its current position as a representative medium-sized western European city.

    Posted 02/05/09] Stenhousemuir Were the Visitors to the Old Ground on Saturday As the SNCL Kicked Off for - Let's Hope - the Last Time

    Week one, win one [posted 02/05/09] Stenhousemuir were the visitors to the old ground on Saturday as the SNCL kicked off for - let's hope - the last time. The 'Loc hadn't played the maroon marauders from deepest darkest Larbert since 2003 as the clubs avoided each other in different divisions, and so it wasn't surprising that, bar respective veteran ever-presents Ferrier and Gardner, and Spence and Sheridan, the players on parade had no idea what to expect from each other. Mind you, that said, the two sides' pro's were rivals back in South African domestic cricket. Brian Spence's first job was - of course - to lose the toss, or more accurately watch as his Stennie counterpart win it. Batting. Why? Probably the visitors' skipper thinking being that wet weather in the days leading up to the game must've meant there was "something" in the pitch. And of course he was right; what was in it was water. Lots of it. HoVR opened with Captain Spence, and 15 was on the 'board when the latter was cleaned up by Angus [Ed: that's his surname!]. Dan then came and went for 2 and it was 28 for 2 when Bean joined the pro'. 26 runs later and HoVR had his fourth batting partner of the day as Nichty strode out. Determined to show that his deck was perfectly playable the Big Man would go on to top score in the innings, batting with almost as many partners as HovR - his 32 added to Hancke's 31 and Maddy 's 27 late on being the three scores around which a defendable total were built.
