Notes

Broadwood Stadium is an association football stadium situated in Cumbernauld, North Lanarkshire, Scotland.

The stadium currently plays host to the home matches of Scottish First Division side, Clyde, and the home matches of Scottish Premier Reserve League side Rangers Reserves.

Clyde previously played in Glasgow at Barrowfield Park, from their creation in 1877 until 1898, and then Shawfield Stadium from 1898 until they were evicted in 1986. Clyde then groundshared with fierce rivals Partick Thistle at Firhill Stadium from 1986 until 1991, and then with Hamilton Academical from 1991 until February 1994, before moving to the purpose built Broadwood.

Clyde moved to Broadwood from their previous Glasgow base. This meant that they would lose some fans in the move, but hoped to gain some new supporters in the new town of Cumbernauld. At the time of opening, only two stands, the Main Stand and the West Stand, had been completed, giving the stadium a capacity of 6000. The third, South Stand was completed in 1997 to bring the overall capacity to just over 8000. Plans to complete the stadium, and bring the overall capacity to 10000 were shelved after Clyde failed to win promotion
