From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Cambuslang Rangers Football Club are a Scottish football (soccer) club based in Cambuslang, near Glasgow. Nicknamed The Lang, they were formed in 1899, they play at Somervell Park and wear blue strips (uniforms). They currently play in the West Region of the Junior level of football. Some say that Cambuslang Rangers are the Scottish Junior team of the 20th century due to the honours they won in the 70s and most supporters say that a Willie McCallum is the club's best player who was a mainstay and major asset to the club in the 70s, he was often asked for his autograph which is rare for players at junior level.
Their biggest fan is young Jack Wardlaw, son of the current best lang manager, Alan Wardlaw.
The record attendance for a game at Somervell Park is 13,500
