White City Stadium, Glasgow

White City Stadium was a greyhound racing and speedway track in Glasgow, Scotland.[1]

The stadium was opened for greyhound racing in April 1928 on the Paisley Road, Ibrox.

It continued to run greyhound racing alongside speedway and was the original home for the Glasgow Tigers speedway team.[2]

The stadium closed in April 1972 and was demolished to make way for the M8 motorway.
