Cartvale F.C. (1878)
Cartvale Football Club was a short-lived football club from Busby, East Renfrewshire that existed from 1878 until 1890. The club regularly competed in the Scottish Cup and reached the semi-finals in 1882. History The club was founded in 1878, originally playing at Overlee Park, moving to Cartsbridge Park by 1879. Its first entry into the Scottish Cup was in 1878–79, ending in defeat to Arthurlie in the first round. The club's best run in the competition came in 1881–82, thanks in part to an unusual occurrence. The club beat Renfrew in the first round, but, thanks to a clerical error, was omitted from the second round draw, and had to be given a bye. The club reaped the benefits of the bye, as it went on its best-ever Cup run, reaching the semi-finals. However the club was overmatched against Dumbarton, conceding a goal in the second minute, turning around at half-time 5–1 in arrears, and ultimately losing 11–2. Cartvale had some consolation in the Renfrewshir ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Busby, East Renfrewshire
Busby is a village in East Renfrewshire, Scotland. Busby is in the Greater Glasgow urban area, but is administratively separate from Glasgow. It lies on the White Cart Water south of Glasgow city centre and northwest of the outskirts of East Kilbride. It directly adjoins the town of Clarkston, East Renfrewshire, Clarkston, with which the village is closely associated. History As a settlement, Busby dates back at least 700 years. Historically, the village was called Bushby. Its modern origins may be dated to several significant changes in the 1780s. The first big change was in the landscape. Until the 1780s Busby village consisted of a scatter of cottages along a track leading from Carmunnock to Newton Mearns, Mearns. This route forded the River Cart near Newford. This original village or fermtoun was in the area of the present Busby railway station. For centuries the occupants had worked the surrounding land from this central settlement. However, by the 1780s the landowner w ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Old Firm
The Old Firm is a collective name for the Scottish football clubs Celtic and Rangers, which are both based in Glasgow. The two clubs are the most successful and popular in Scotland, and the rivalry between them has become deeply embedded in Scottish culture. It has reflected and contributed to political, social and religious division and sectarianism in Scotland. As a result, matches between them have had an enduring appeal around the world. Between them the two clubs are among the most trophied in the world, having won a combined 110 Scottish League championships (55 each team), 76 Scottish Cups (Celtic with 42 and Rangers with 34), and 50 Scottish League Cups (Rangers with 28 and Celtic with 22). Interruptions to their ascendancy have occurred rarely, mainly in the two decades after the Second World War from 1946 to 1965 when five other clubs won the league, and in the first half of the 1980s with the challenge of the New Firm of Aberdeen and Dundee United.

A few months later, in November 1891, he joined Rangers hoping to play more regularly, but although he did so the team had a poor run of results during the campaign and he returned to Celtic by July of the following year.
