Correct Matt.... In 1977, Clydebank, a relatively small club, were promoted to the Scottish Premier Division. At that time, the grounds of clubs playing in the highest tier in Britain were required to comply with the Safety of Sports Grounds Act if their capacity was above 10,000. Clydebank, faced with a large bill to ensure compliance, decided to reduce the capacity of Kilbowie Park to 9,950 by bolting wooden bench seating to their terraces, which were open to the elements. Kilbowie thereby became the first all-seater ground in Britain, albeit as a response to an unforeseen problem rather than a long-term plan.
I think AlanDicks has missed a turn to ask a question but if not my one regarding the "Who am I?" stands as my question
Cheers AD - Here's mine from earlier then... Here's another one if that's right... Who am I? I've played in the following derbies... The Bristol derby for Rovers albeit in a reserve match The Severnside derby for Cardiff The South Wales derby for Cardiff The East Anglian derby for Norwich The Midlands derbies for Coventry The Manchester derby for Man City The Merseyside derby for Liverpool The Lancashire derbies for Blackburn London derbies for West Ham and North East derbies for Newcastle I also missed out Old Firm derbies for Celtic!!!
now I've thought about it i'd go for Craig Bellamy, if that is correct I didn't know about the rovers game..
