it would be great to see cathkin used for league football again but the costs must be so prohibitive especially post taylor report. it was a classic ground far better than the bill barr identikit grounds of today

The THIRD LANARK ATHLETIC CLUB are back ! We are preparing our proposal to hand in to Glasgow City Council for the long term lease of our old home ground, the atmospheric and magical Cathkin Park. This was out ground from 1903 - 1967 and was formerly the 2nd Hampden Park when Queens Park opened it in 1884. Please sign our petition if you would like to see our 95 year old 'new' football club return to our spiritual home and to play senior football again. We plan to rebuild the old players pavilion building exactly as it was and erect a new main stand in keeping with the original destroyed by fire in the late 1970s. We are already restoring the crumbling terracing and repainting the pitch wall and this old ground is slowly coming back to life. We need the public's support !! Thank you for your time.

I am sure many of you have heard of the grand Old Glasgow football team of Third Lanark. Resurrected at Amateur Level in 2003 they have recently expanded to encompass a youth system at different youth levels with further expansion next year. One of their youth teams actually won 10 nil yesterday. They have also set up a Third Lanark goalkeeping Academy.
