Cambuslang F.C.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Camubuslang Football Club was a former Scottish football team, based in the Cambuslang region of Glasgow, which went into liquidation. They were founder members of the Scottish Football League.

The teams most notable achievement to date is being the runners-up of the Scottish Cup in 1888, having beaten Abercorn F.C. 10-1 in the semis. They won the inaugural Glasgow Cup in the very same year.

The Junior team Cambuslang Rangers F.C. have nothing whatsoever to do with the former defunct club, being one of two Junior sides that were in the town after Cambuslang's demise.

Grounds: 1874-1888 Westburn Green/WestburnPark. 1888-1897 Whitefield Park.
