NO, ITS not a scene from a prisoner of war movie these are workers enjoying a lunch-time kickabout on the red blaes pitches at Fleshers' Haugh on Glasgow Green.

The Green was the first home of Rangers Football Club, founded by a group of rowers who played their early matches there.

The playing surface was laid on a rock-hard foundation and the pitches would flood after rain, turning them into a red soup of grit and gravel.

Generations of boys skinned their knees on the surface until the facility closed in 1992.

Nowadays players at the Glasgow Green Football Centre enjoy games on both grass and artificial surfaces.
