The Blue Bell sought to join the Scottish Football Association in time to enter the 1879–80 Scottish Cup, but its entry was postponed for later consideration. It was however allowed to enter the competition for the second round, where it beat Newmains. The win was the club's only Cup tie victory in 5 entries. In the third the club was fortunate when opponents Queen of the South Wanderers scratched; in the fourth the club lost 3–0 at Cambuslang, the Blue Bell side's game being "characterised by roughness rather than by art", although there was a bizarre aftermath when the club protested at the standard of refereeing, and the referee wrote to the Scottish FA to declare the result as b ...

Drumgelloch Railway Station
Drumgelloch railway station is a railway station serving the east of Airdrie, North Lanarkshire, Scotland. It is located east of the 1989 station on the former Bathgate and Coatbridge Railway, on the site of the former Clarkston railway station. The station previously closed in 1956. History The first station on the site was opened on 11 August 1862 by the Bathgate and Coatbridge Railway, and was named ''Clarkston''. It was renamed ''Clarkston (Lanarks)'' on 8 June 1953 by British Railways, who closed it on 9 January 1956. In 2005, the Scottish Executive announced that the closed section of line between the 1989 Drumgelloch station and would be rebuilt as a double-tracked electrified railway termed the Airdrie–Bathgate rail link. This resulted in the closure of the 1989 Drumgelloch station to be replaced by the new station 550m to the east on the site of the former Clarkston station. When the 1989 station opened, although in the Clarkston area, it took the name Drumgel ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] [Amazon] |

Founded in 1886, the SJFA is responsible for disciplinary matters within the grade, certain player registration procedures and organising the annual Scottish Junior Cup. Other league and cup competitions are organised by regional committees. The association headquarters are at Hampden Park, Glasgow, which is Scotland's national football stadium.
