Looking back on our last 2 games in the League cup section, Yoker and Perthshire, I thought we HONOURS HONOURS SENIOR HONOURS played reasonably well in both games but the second half of the Perthshire game was particularly pleasing as I thought the players kept our opponents on the back foot for the majority of the 45 Scottish Junior Cup Intermediate Cup SFL Division 2 mins. No matter the opposition, that is not easy to do. Winners : 1941-42 Winners : 1929-30 Champions : 1975/76 At the end of it all, we again qualified for the knockout stages with relative ease and despite some Runners-Up : 2008-09 Central League SFL Division 2 people’s view of this competition, I am more than happy to reach the latter stages of any cup. While I appreciate the challenges, selection issues and priorities that managers encounter at this time of Sectional League Cup Champions : Runners-Up : 1997/98 the year, I can never understand or agree with the logic of anyone who participates in a competition Winners : 2013-14 1934-35,1940-41,1941-42, Spring Cup and doesn’t attempt to win it or treats it with a lack of respect! We now face a tricky quarter-final tie at Wishaw which we played on Wednesday night and hopefully that result will set us up for today’s Runners-Up : 2005-06 1944-45,1949-50. Runners-Up : 1975/76 encounter in a positive mood. Central League Cup Intermediate League Stirlingshire Cup Our first game of the league season sees us welcoming last season’s Junior Scottish Cup finalists Glenafton to Holm Park and of course included in their party will be ex Bankies Tommy Bryce and Winners : 1932-33,1934-35, Winners : 1929-30 Winners : 1978/79 & 1979/80 Adam Strachan. Although we took full points from last season’s league fixture against the South 2009-10, 2011-12, 2013-14 Pompey Cup Scottish Cup Semi-Finalists Ayrshire outfit on their own patch, the return game towards the end of the season was very disap- 1989/90 pointing from our point of view not only due to the result but I thought our general performance that West of Scotland Cup Winners : 1951-52,1960-61 day was below par. It is always good if you can get your league campaign off to a positive start Junior Record Victory Winners : 1949-50 Evening Times Cup therefore hopefully we can manage to secure the 3 points on offer from this game. 9-1 v Thorniewood I also think that this seasons Premier League could potentially be the most competitive for many Runners-Up : 1938-39,1955-56 Winners : 1934-35,1940- years so it is imperative to get as many points on the board early. 41,1941-42,1944-45, 1949-50. Super League Div. 1 Junior Record Defeat Runners –Up : Runners-Up : 2010-11 1-6 v Renfrew Please get behind our lads and give them as much vocal backing as possible. 1942-43,1948-49,1952-53 Central League Div. 1 Senior Record Victory SENIOR HONOURS Runners-Up : 2006-07 8-1 v Arbroath SFL Division 1 Senior Record Defeat Central League Div. 2 Onwards and upwards, Runners-Up : 1976/77 & Champions : 2003-04 1-9 v Gala Fairydean 1984/85 Billy McGhie.

It's when everything seems possible for your team. Here at Clydebank, we've had another positive pre-season and at the time of writing, the Sectional League Cup has gone well. If Wish Bankies we managed to negotiate the tricky away tie at Wishaw on Wednesday reclassify that as all the best 'very well'. for season So we go into today's match full of hope for what is to come, but we are not the only ones. 2014-2015 Our guests today, Glenafton Athletic, managed by one of the Bankies' best ever players Tommy Bryce, will also be optimistic for the season ahead. Glenafton reached the Scottish Junior Cup final last term and finished the league campaign strongly, including a very im- pressive win over us in the run-in. It all means that today's match has all the ingredients to be a cracker.
