As mad as it sounds, Glasgow once had a cricket hooligan problem that made it into the papers on a regular basis.
Cricket's often dubbed a 'gentleman's game', but that was far from the case when the city's first cricket club, Western (not be confused with the modern-day Partick club of the same name), was established back in 1829.
Looking back through the history books, it seems 'gentlemanly' conduct was in rather short supply when it came to the game of cricket here in Glasgow.
