In December 1895 Rangers secretary, Mr Wilton, contacted Queen's Park asking whether the club would be agreeable to support the proposal to form a Glasgow Reserve Eleven League. Queen's were willing and resolved to attend any meeting called for the purpose. The Scottish Reserve League was formed 13 December 1895 and consisted of five clubs; Queen's Park, Rangers, Celtic, Heart of Midlothian, and Leith Athletic. On the 7 July 1896 the body was re-constituted as the Scottish Combination with a mixture of reserve and first-team sides. H Walker of Queen's Park Strollers was appointed honorary secretary.

 

Several 2nd XI sides of Scottish League clubs would thereafter compete in one of the several leagues, Combination, Union, Northern League etc, that were operating over the forthcoming decade.

 

The Scottish Reserve League was re-formed on 24 January 1909 at a meeting of representatives of Scottish League clubs in Glasgow and was sanctioned by the Scottish FA on 11 Mar 1909. One aspect of the league was having at least one non-reserve side in each of its seasons. It was generally regarded as a strong league and when Dumbarton Harp left the Scottish Union for it in 1912, it was regarded as a step up for them.

 

Although the Scottish Reserve League disbanded in 1915, it was virtually re-established in 1919 as the Scottish Alliance initially as a reserve league for Scottish League clubs. However like the Scottish Reserve League before it was to include of a number of non-League sides within its membership. Arbroath and Forfar Athletic were the first of these in 1920-21, before their elevation to full Scottish League status at the end of the season. The other 'first teams' during this early time were Dundee Hibernian in 1922-23 (Celtic 'A' actually gave up their place after the Dundee side's demotion from the Scottish League in 1923) and Leith Athletic in 1923-24.

 

After the Third Division of the Scottish League collapsed in 1926, there was a huge influx of clubs. To cater for this, the Alliance split into Northern and Southern sections. This only lasted for one season after which the league reverted to a single, all reserve, division. As this left a number of clubs without a league to play in, some of them formed a short-lived competition called the Provincial League.

During the Alliance's last ten years, six clubs entered their full sides:

 

Beith

1928-1938

Bo'ness

1933-34

Brechin City

1928-29

Galston

1932-1938

Montrose

1928-29

Nithsdale Wanderers

1928-1930

 

At the Alliance's AGM 24 June 1938 a motion first proposed by JC Lyon, chairman of Hamilton Academical on 10 May 1938 to remove the two remaining non-League sides, Beith and Galston, for financial reasons was put forward. At the meeting the motion to dissolve the league was defeated, but saw the intention for the withdrawal of the First Division clubs. The formation of a new reserve league was approved by 15 votes to 5 at a further meeting held on 4 July 1938. The Alliance was then effectively reformed as the Scottish Reserve League and was to be an exclusively First Division reserve body.

 

The following were elected to represent the league;

President: A Cuthbertson (Mothewell)

Vice- President: JC Lyon (Hamilton Academical)

Management Committee: AL Morton (Rangers), H Anderson (Hearts), R Kelly (Celtic) and JS Lock... (Partick Thistle)

 

The secretary was T Galbraith.

 

The gate guarantee remained at 20 GBP, with half gate if over 40 GBP. Hearts' proposal for home clubs to keep gate not carried. The Scottish FA granted permission to operate the new league on 10 August 1938 only three days before the start of the new season.

This version only lasted for one full season as the 1939-40 campaign was abandoned when war was declared in September 1939 after only five rounds of fixtures were played.

 

It was thought that the Scottish Alliance may have continued in 1938-39, Galston and Beith calling for a meeting with Girvan, Stranraer, Babcock & Wilcox, Queen's Park Victoria XI and Bo'ness all invited. Nothing came of this, although the Alliance did reform for 1939-40 season, but was disbanded due to the onset of WWII.

 

By 1942, several clubs had enough players to organize reserve sides. Rangers, Hibernian and Heart of Midlothian had managed to field two teams in the Southern League and North Eastern League, so in 1942, eight western club formed the Glasgow & District Reserve League. The first two seasons saw the league played over two series. Kilmarnock, who had not brrn operating since 1940, entered their first team in the league's last season in 1944-45. Hibernian's second string also entered this season.

After initially not taking part, Clyde and Falkirk decided to rejoin the league in mid September along with Partick Thistle.

Clyde withdrew in February 1911 after they disbanded their reserve XI and their record expunged

Both Rangers v Beith games were played at Beith

 

At the League AGM in Glasgow on 6 June 1911, Hearts, Falkirk and St Mirren all withdrew although the latter two later changed their minds and stayed in the competition. Forfar Athletic gained admission on 26 July and Broxburn Athletic in August. Mr McEwan of Dundee was elected secretary and treasurer in place of Mr McCartney of Hearts who resigned.
