Clyde Rocks was a trial Scottish independent local radio station serving Glasgow and West Central Scotland. The station was dedicated to rock music alongside sports news and discussion and was operated by Radio Clyde (part of Bauer Radio). The station broadcast on DAB and online for 30 days, but was axed after the trail was completed. Clyde Rocks was a contender for the then advertised 96.3FM license for Glasgow and The West of Scotland, but however, lost out to the all new Rock Radio Glasgow.
Most of the stations output came from Radio Clyde's studios in Clydebank.
The stations local presenters were Gavin Pearson (Weekday Breakfast), John Milne (Weekday Daytime and Sunday 4-7), Fraser Thomson (Weekday Home Run), Mark Martin (weekend Breakfast), Mike Richardson (Saturday Morning and Sunday Night) and Mark MacKenzie (Sunday Afternoon)
Clyde Rocks broadcast local news bulletins from 6am to 7pm on weekdays, from 9am to 1pm on Saturdays and from 9am to 12pm on Sundays. There is also sport and traffic bulletins.
Sports coverage aired under the Superscoreboard Extra banner which was a sister programme to Clyde 1's Superscoreboard. Superscoreboard Extra is on Clyde Rocks Monday to Friday from 8pm to 10pm with Hugh Keevins.
Also on a Saturday the station had the latest team news ahead of the afternoon football matches from 12pm - 2pm with Gavin Pearson and from 2pm Fraser Thomson has score updates and news.
