Scottish Junior Football Grounds

Scottish
Junior Grounds


Some of the best and most traditional football grounds in Britain are to be found in Glasgow. Every summer I am fortunate in being able to spend a week in Scotland with a party of students from the school where I teach. Over the years I have found a number of very good reasons for being the right person to be last away from Glasgow, first one back to Glasgow, the one to drive to and from Glasgow... and one day last summer I just said that I was going to leave the group and go to Glasgow for the day! Whatever image people have of Glasweigans I can say that I have always found those at grounds to be as welcoming and hospitable as they could possibly be.
