Got to laugh at that Glasgow Evening Times report on Third Lanark with the usual corrupt mainstream media attempt to make out that Glasgow Rangers didn't suffer the same fate as Third Lanark - contrary to what this crap rag says Rangers did go straight to bust as was reported in all of maintream media at the time and then after a bunch of crooks bought the assets of the club Rangers that is still being liquidated as I write this they gave their new team a similar name to the old one and have been passing that off as the old Rangers ever since and the corrupt SFA/SPFL and mainstream media have been going along with this scam ever since as they need this PRETEND original Rangers and their mug fans who think that it is still the same club because it is all to do with MONEY and nothing to do with sport as it is bad enough them trying to sell crap Scottish football to TV etc Sponsors and they need a Celtic and "Rangers" to do so even though it is these two teams that have totally destroyed Scottish football where most of their fans do not support their local teams but support these two teams depending on what school they went to or church that they do not bother attending as well. This is why myself and most of the Scottish population do not watch or follow Scottish football any more with only around 150,000 people in total attending all of the Scottish football league matches in total every week and yet football, fans in this country think that football is important when over 5 million people do not bother with it.

Fascinating video but that article you link to is really poor. George Young was the manager in question, not Willie Young ( who is either an ex-referee or former Aberdeen, Spurs & Arsenal star). And the writer can't even spell Shankly's surname correctly. Or Hiddelston's. Managers are poorly researched. Of the three mentioned only Young quit over Hiddelston. Evans left at the end of 1964-65 to go back to playing (with Raith Rovers) and Shankly left to take over at Dundee - which was a step up. He later led them to the league title while brother Bill was still in the Second Division with Liverpool. Oddly enough George Young's first match in charge of Thirds was a League Cup semi-final v Arbroath at which Shankly handed over to him. That led to the rare sight of both men sat in the Thirds dug-out at the same time. I'm old enough to have seen Third Lanark play, though not at Cathkin. I'm certain what happened to them couldn't happen now. Plenty of clubs have gone under in the years since and almost all of them have survived in some shape or form or come back as a 'phoenix' club. Supporters have made sure of that. Back in 1967 fans weren't as organised as they are today and authority was much more readily accepted. Every time a team goes under now then within days plans are under way to keep the club going or to revive it. It was Thirds' misfortune to go under 20-30 years too early.

I was a Third Lanark fan. I am 81 and was quite fanatical at the time. We had a free scoring forward line of Goodfellow, Hilley, Harley, Grey and McInnes. One season we scored 100 goals but we had 80 against. One game against Hibs ended 8-4 to Hibs and we missed two penalties. We got revenge by beating then 6-1 at Cathkin.

As a fun fact, it hosted Polish national football team 10 times, and the last match they played, in 1980, was against Scotland, with Zbigniew Boniek scoring a winning goal for Poland.

According to a Board of Trade investigation on Third Lanark's downfall, it was revealed that players were paid late (in coins; not in banknotes), they had to make it to away matches on their own, hot water wasn't even available after matches, and every appointment in the club's management was made personally by Hiddleston. All this on top of the fact the corruption defrauded the club's lottery (they rarely paid a weekly prize of £200). In July 1968, four former Third Lanark directors were found guilty of contravening the Companies Act 1948 and fined £100 each and Hiddleston...died the year before in November because of a heart attack in Blackpool.

I think towards the end the clubs had to play with a new ball at every game I think the Thirds captain was told if he won the toss to take kick off and the player were told to kick the ball out of the ground so the used an old ball for the rest of the game also some balls were painted white to make them look new

I moved down to London from Ayrshire in 1975. The English alway said two things without fail: 'Are you fae Glesgy?' in their best imitation of a Scottish accent and the obligatory 'Which team do you support?'. I loved to reply with 'Third Lanark' and it was joyful to see their minds struggling to digest that name - their grasp of Scottish football being as you might expect - but they could never bring themselves to admit that they didn't know who Third Lanark were, where they played or which division. They just replied with 'Ah' or simply changed the conversation. It never failed.

I was fortunate enough to visit all three Hampden Parks recently, and there's just something... special about Cathkin Park, the way the stadium is almost clinging on to its very existence, against the onward march of nature - you can almost hear the crowds echoing through the ages. I'm also so glad you mentioned the Jimmy Johnstone Academy because, as we were leaving, a chap asked what we were doing and, after explaining, asked in we wanted a wee look round the Academy. Now, to call it a shrine to Jimmy is an gross misjustice: think of it as a museum that also inspires, as they're doing the most amazing work to instil his playing ethos into young players, to the point where they wear all-white (instead of green) for important matches ONLY, because they want those matches to FEEL IMPORTANT, while holding all his memorabilia (including all the letters of commiseration after his death, from football leaders, world leaders - and Lorraine Kelly!) I feel honoured to have seen inside the Academy, and wished them well in their endeavours.

As a history buff, football fan, Scotland lover and (former) bagpipe player this video amazed and educated me in so many ways. Thank you!! Should you ever visit Germany's Ruhr district, you might want to visit three historic stadiums: Two of them belonging to FC Schalke 04, namely Glückaufkampfbahn and Parkstadion, and Rote Erde Stadion belonging to Borussia Dortmund. All three of them are still used by their respective clubs either as training pitches or for occasional amateur or youth matches, albeit in varying state of preservation. The Grand Stand of Glückaufkampfbahn is actually classified as a protected monument. Additionally, you can look at what remains of the Castrop-Rauxel horse race track. This started out as the private leisure ground of William Thomas Mulvany, an anglo-irish technician and buisnessman who earned a fortune here with coal mining around the 1860s. His Irish blood yearned for a british style horse race track, so he just build one beside his house. Racing ceased around 1965. Not much is still visible today, but the man himself was a very colourful character and will make a good story. F. ex. he named his three coal mines Hibernia, Shamrock and Erin, all referring to his home island. He was such an important figure in the region that the city of Herne until 1974 had a shamrock (clover leaf) on its coat of arms, pointing to the coal mine that catapulted a sleepy country town into the modern age.

As an American I love your videos... Also you're cheeky sneaking the map men into your video too. Great video. Love the history

The Map Men theme made me even more impressed by your ability to make humour

Absolutely love your videos Tim, they just seem to get better and better! And I have to agree with others about Coldplay and bagpipes, a master stroke!

The story is great and I love your musical choice. Clocks played with bagpipes is amazing at this point.

Another great addition to the "forgotten stadiums" videos! I'm so glad somebody experimented putting Clocks and Fix You to bagpipes, so that no one else has to... ever again. 😆

What a cool place, and to see it still being used by some kid's teams is great!

Wow! I’d never heard of this place. Fascinating

Well I’ve learned something else new, which was that Third Lanark never actually played in Lanark town itself. Third Lanark being a shortening of 3rd Lanarkshire Rifle Volunteers rather than a reference to the county town.

Superb as always. Have you ever thought about visiting Cornwall? We have some cracking stuff here for you. Tin mines, old railways, you’d love it! 😎🥰

Haha, the ‘Clocks’ (and maybe ‘Fix You’ at the end but I’m not sure about that) played on bagpipes was a nice move, well done!
