The original lists featuring every Senior and Junior club can also be found here.

Notes

Where a name has been used on several occasions, these clubs have been differentiated by a number ie [1], [2] etc.

All dates given are inclusive ie 1890-1892 means seasons 1890-91 and 1891-92.                                                                                                                                                                                   

Where a date is unknown, I have marked it with an asterisk (*). Eg 18** denotes sometime between 1870 and 1890. 189* denotes sometime in the 1890s and so on.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                   

Thanks to numerous contributions, the original directory has been greatly expanded upon. In particular I am most grateful to the following individuals for their invaluable help

Stuart Robertson, for both helping to compile many of the individual club pages and for giving me access to his own list of Junior clubs

Alick Milne, for allowing me access to his research of colours for a great many Senior clubs.

Tom Thornton for supplying his research on the various East Lothian clubs

Graeme McGinty (for supplying info on the many West Lothian clubs)

Brian Reilly (for supplying additional clubs in Maryhill in the 1890s)                                                                                                                                                                                                

I also have to thank Alan McCabe, and Stewart Davidson who kindly loaned me copies of club lists compiled by the late Jackie Heaney.

And of course additional info from site visitors (many thanks!)
