Newlandsfield Park, Football stadium in Pollokshaws, Glasgow, Scotland.
Newlandsfield Park is a football ground in the Pollokshaws area of Glasgow, with a grass pitch surrounded by a mix of covered seating and open standing areas. The ground is compact in size and sits within a residential part of the city, giving it a neighborhood feel.
Pollok FC moved to this ground in 1928 after the city council acquired their previous pitch to build a school. The club has played here ever since, making it one of the longer-running homes of an amateur club in Scotland.
Pollok FC, the club that plays here, competes in Scottish amateur football and has a loyal following in the Pollokshaws area. On match days, the ground draws a mix of families and long-time supporters who follow the team closely season after season.
The ground is easy to reach by train or bus, as Pollokshaws sits on a suburban rail line and has several bus routes passing through. If you plan to drive, parking in the surrounding streets can be limited on match days.
For most of its history, the ground had no floodlights, which meant evening matches were not possible until as recently as 2022. The funding for the lights came largely from a community campaign rather than from a football authority or sponsor.
