Glasgow Theses Service http://theses.gla.ac.uk/ [email protected] The origins, patronage and culture of association football in the west of Scotland, c. 1865-1902 Matthew Lynn McDowell BA Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for The Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of History, Scottish area Faculty of Arts University of Glasgow September 2009 ABSTRACT Rangers and Celtic Football Clubs, together known as the ‘Old Firm’, have received the lion’s share of attention given to Scottish association football in both scholarly and popular literature. During Scottish football’s formative years, however, the ascendancy of the Old Firm was far from set in stone. The exhaustive study of these two extraordinary organisations, therefore, greatly distorts our understanding of Scottish football’s Victorian origins. Both clubs were part of a far greater scene which included not only fellow ‘senior’, well-established clubs, but also any number of ‘junior’, ‘juvenile’ and non-classified football clubs, as well as fledgling associations which oversaw the regulation of the young game.
