Treasure of the Month
Pollok FC
Small display of artefacts, including clothing, programmes and photographs, from Pollok FC. Formed in 1908 as the football section of Pollokshaws Working Lads Club, their original home was at Haggs Park and their black & white colours come from the heraldic shield of Pollok House. In 1928/29 they moved to their current home at Newlandsfield Park and last season entered the Scottish Senior Cup for the first time.
