2nd Scots Guards F.C.

The 2nd Scots Guards Football Club, also known as the 2nd Battalion Scots Guards, was an association football club formed out of soldiers belonging to the Scots Guards. == History == The club was formed in 1888, when stationed at Pirbright; its first attempt at the Army Cup, in 1889–90, saw the club reach the final at the Kennington Oval, but the Battalion went down 3–1 to the Black Watch in extra-time, the "superb" goal-keeping of the Guards' Wood "robbing [the Black Watch] of a more substantial verdict".
