Linthouse F.C.

Langlands Park was a football ground in the Linthouse district of Govan, Scotland. It was the home ground of Linthouse F.C. between 1894 and their disbandment in 1900.

Linthouse moved to Langlands Park in 1894 from their Langlands Road ground. A narrow stand was erected on the southern side of the pitch, and a pavilion built in the north-east corner of the ground. The club joined Division Two of the Scottish Football League in 1895, and the first SFL match was played at Langlands Park on 17 August 1895, a 2–1 win over Airdrieonians. The probable record attendance of 10,000 was set a few weeks later on 21 September for a Glasgow Cup match against Celtic, with the visitors winning 7–1.

At the end of the 1899–1900 season the club opted not to apply for re-election to the league. Their final SFL match at Langlands Park was on 10 March 1900, a 2–2 draw with Motherwell. The club subsequently folded later in the year, and the site was used for housing.
