Kirkintilloch Rob Roy F.C.

Uniform and rivalries

They wear red and black strips (uniforms) and currently compete in the West Region of the Scottish Junior Football Association where their biggest rivals are Kilsyth Rangers. In recent years the well-known footballer Chic Charnley had a spell playing for The Rabs as did ex-Rangers defender Marvin Andrews. The Rabs have had many famous names playing for them – Joe McBride, Stevie Chalmers, George Young, Andy Lynch and Andy Ritchie.

The Rabs also featured in the very first Scottish Junior Cup Final on TV (STV) when they played Kilbirnie Ladeside in the 1977 final at Hampden Park, Glasgow. In front of a crowd of 11,476.

On 15 May 1963, Chelsea (who had just gained promotion to the top tier of the Football League) came to Adamslie Park to play Rob Roy in what was billed as a "Freedom from Hunger" charity match. Chelsea won 3–2 with their goals coming from Mulholland (two goals) and Peter Houseman. Cooper and Reid (penalty) had pulled Rob Roy back to 2–2 before Houseman's winner.

Divisional status

After season 2007-08, Rob Roy were promoted to the Super Premier Division of the West Region. In season 2008–09 they finished a respectable sixth in the top division and also reached, for the first time in nearly 30 years, the semi-finals of the Scottish Junior Cup; they narrowly lost 1–0 on aggregate to the subsequent winners, Auchinleck Talbot. Local derbies against Kilsyth Rangers are few and far between as Kilsyth are currently in the league below the Rabs . Season 2016–17 will be Rob Roy's eighth season in the Super Premier Division of the West Region. The club are currently under the management of Former Player Stewart Maxwell and his number two Gordon Moffat as well as coaches John Doyle and Kevin Finlayson.

Closure of Adamslie Park and new stadium

After several years of unsuccessful attempts to sell the ground to keep Kirkintilloch Rob Roy financially viable (the club's social club having closed with debts of around £30,000), it was announced in April 2014 that the last match to be played at Adamslie Park would be a friendly against Rangers on Sunday 18 May, the ground having been sold to a house builder for £1.8 million. The last competitive match to be played at Adamslie Park was a league relegation playoff match on Tuesday 3 June 2014 against Shotts. The match ended in a 1–1 draw.

The club also announced that, during the 2014–15 season, they would groundshare with Cumbernauld United at Guy's Meadow before moving to a new stadium in the Southbank area of Kirkintilloch. The new stadium will have modern stand with a capacity for 500 spectators as well as well as other modern facilities including a FIFA approved 4G pitch.
