morrie21 Posted May 24 Share Posted May 24 Cheers for sharing this Ramy. I fancy going for a visit. Is the train from Central to Crosshill the best way to get to Cathkin Park? Also what's the nearest train station to the site of the original Hampden Park as referenced above. Please and thank you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really enjoyed walking that ground. To think over 50,000 stood in this park at one time is haunting.. I was trying to imagine what it would have been like when I walked on the terracing, covered in bush. It really is quite something.. I don't know much about Third Lanark, my apologies mate, but good luck with the revival..๐ด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ณ๓ ฃ๓ ด๓ ฟ๐ด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ณ๓ ฃ๓ ด๓ ฟ๐ด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ณ๓ ฃ๓ ด๓ ฟ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've often wondered what a fan who has invested much time and emotion in a club does when their club ceases to exist. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
