Shettleston F.C.
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Shettleston Football Club are a Scottish football (soccer) club based in Shettleston, in the East End of Glasgow. Nicknamed the Town, they were formed in 1903 and are based at Greenfield Park. They currently operate in the West Region of the Scottish Junior Football Association and play in white strips (uniforms) with a black trim.
Their fortunes have been mixed in recent years, flitting between the various divisions of the league they have been based in, although they managed to reach the semi-finals of the Scottish Junior Cup in 2000-2001, and the quarter-finals of the same competition in 2001-2002. They were managed for a spell by former Irish international, Celtic F.C. and Motherwell F.C. player, Tommy Coyne.
