Windsor Football Club was an association football club from Bridgeton, Glasgow, active in the 1870s and 1880s.
The club, claimed a foundation date of 1877, but there are records of fixtures from 1876. The club's first competitive football came in the West of Scotland Cup for non-senior clubs, reaching the third round in 1877âÂÂ78, but losing to reigning champions Marchtown in the first round at Pollokshields in 1878âÂÂ79.
The club had a successful 1879âÂÂ80 season at junior level, although one of its two defeats was in the Royal Standard Cup (for clubs in and around the Gorbals area).
Despite this competitive setback, Windsor turned senior at the end of the season and entered the 1880âÂÂ81 Scottish Cup. The club's first match as a senior club that season was a "fast and exciting" 4âÂÂ2 win at Tollcross, but, in the first round of the Cup, Windsor lost 1âÂÂ0 at Jordanhill; there was some consolation two months later when the club beat Rosehill of Paisley 10âÂÂ0.
The club did enter the 1881âÂÂ82 Scottish Cup, and was drawn to play Whitefield, but dissolved before the tie could take place.
The club wore white jerseys and knickers, and red and black hose.
The club originally played on the Glasgow Green. In order to join the Scottish Football Association, the club needed a private ground, and found one at Dalmarnock Park, 3 minutes' walk from the London Road car terminus, either on or very close to the site used by the Thistle.
