struggling with injury Pat proved an able deputy during the course of the league
season and after making ten appearances he picked up this deserved championship

Nice clipping but I've got the highlights of this game and that photo is not of Dalglish's goal.

1. We're not sure when the League of the Cross name was dropped. It may have been 1913, when Junior football became professional. Sports played under League of the Cross auspices were strictly amateur.

2. The League Hall was in Hamilton Street, but the entire street was demolished (except for the Hall) and renamed Nethan Street. It was a hardwood flooring warehouse, but that recently relocated. The League Hall was the Ants first pavilion when the club played on a field just south of the Hall between 1904 and 1906. The modern Crossloan Road probably runs over part of that field

3. There were indeed two Moore Parks. The one halfway up Broomloan Road on the west side was originally named the Moorepark Grounds - literally the grounds of an old Georgian mansion. Several Govan teams played there over the years. The Ants took it over when another Junior side Co-operative United went bust in 1906. We got their match-secretary too, a certain Steve Callaghan, who went on to do great things for Celtic. The owners of the park, Harland and Wolff, told us to get out in 1929. We moved to New Moore Park in Helen Street that year, but the "New" tag disappeared very quickly. The Wine Alley scheme was built on top of the old park.

4. Canon McBrearty was an honorary Ant, but the priest who did most to promote the League of the Cross and encouraged sport to be played in the branch was Father Robert Paterson. He had left Govan by the time St Anthony's League of the Cross Football and Athletic Club* was formed, but he retained his connection with the branch. He became a Canon in 1939 at Blantyre St Joseph's.

* Initially the club was known as the 'Athletic Club' or 'League Athletic' for the sake of simplicity. The nickname 'the Ants' came later.

Brilliant :clap:
Does anyone know what exactly happened to the League of the Cross as an organisation? Was it disbanded or did it just die off gradually? I 've asked loads of old-timers but no-one remembers, so I guess it must have been well before WW2. Possibly it might have had something to do with the temperance referenda around 1920 or 1921, which gave each district in Glasgow and surrounding towns the choice of going 'wet' or 'dry'. That could have killed off the temperance debate, but I just don't know.

Ever wondered why you can't get a drink near Hampden Park? Crosshill voted to go 'dry'. :angry:

Linthouse was a dry area until the 1960's. Until then you had to go into Govan.

There was a league of the cross when I was a boy in St Anthonys. Mostly old guys and the woman were in the Legion of Mary.
