Ah yes.. the dear old Bankies at Kilbowie Park. I went to that ground quite a few times during the late seventies and eighties. Quite an experience. It was tiny, had hardly any standing area, and was in the middle of a council housing scheme. It also had the "Bankies Club" on one corner of the ground where you could have a pint whilst watching the game.

It was also the scene of one of our worst Cup exits in about 1987, when we lost 1-0 to them having hammered them 4-1 the week before.

I still felt sorry for them when they went defunct. Another luckless wee west of Scotland team sacrificed at the alter of the Old Firm.
