Clyde Away

Sons reward(?) for beating Cumnock on Friday is an away tie against Clyde in Round 3 of the Scottish Cup.

The 3rd round is scheduled to take place on the weekend of November 26th but since Clyde are renting New Douglas Park, the home of Hamilton Accies, who have also been drawn at home, the date of the game has yet to be confirmed.

New Douglas Park, Hamilton

Home of Hamilton Academical Football Club, popularly known as the Accies.

These are the entrance gates:-

The Main Stand is the one you can see in the above photo.

Once you get inside you find the seating area is quite high up. See the steps.

Note no stand to right here and the temporary stand on the opposite side. That’s a Morrison’s supermarket behind it.

The North Stand:-

Apparently Sons fans were in this stand for the Saturday game but it wasn’t used on the Tuesday night.

A few more photos of New Douglas Park are on my Flickr.

Well, I got my win. Any positive result on Tuesday night will be a bonus.

Mind you, we were against only ten men for an hour of this game. I wasn’t there so don’t know how good a performance this was but at least we converted the advantage into three points.

Seventh place and four points ahead of ninth!

Tuesday night at Hamilton is beginning to look attractive.
