South Western F.C.
South Western Football Club (sometimes referred to as Glasgow South Western) was a Scottish football club active in the 19th century. Their home ground was Copeland Park in Govan, situated close to Ibrox railway station. The club competed in the Scottish Cup from the 1876–77 to 1883–84 seasons, reaching the quarter-finals twice. In 1877–78 they won the initial match against the 3rd Lanarkshire Rifle Volunteers, before losing 2–1 when they tie was replayed following a protest by their opponents. They reached the same stage again in 1879–80, losing 6–1 to Pollokshields Athletic. John Campbell of South  Western played for Scotland in an international match against Wales in March 1880. Despite joining the newly formed Glasgow Football Association in April 1883, South Western made their final appearance in the Scottish Cup in September of that year, losing 8–1 against Battlefield in the first round. Shortly afterwards, having already absorbed Luton, it was reported that they were considering amalgamating with another local club, Pilgrims, for whom some of the South Western players had been guesting. Within the next couple of months, South Western had been absorbed by Pilgrims, who took over the use of Copeland Park. A club  of the same name re-emerged in the area in 1885 (a merger of two local teams, Beaconsfield and Woodbourne) and joined the newly founded Scottish Junior Football Association a year later; they survived until 1894.
