was a Scottish football team, based in the Pollokshields district of Glasgow (at the time a separate burgh).

in the semi-final, but neutral venues were not used at that time, and the draw had the match played at Thornliebank's ground.

The following season, one of the club's players, Woodville Gray, was called up for the Scotland international match with Wales, but had to withdraw.

In 1886–87, the club was drawn to play St Andrew's, a local rival which used the Shields' former ground at Lorne Park, and won 5–2.

However St Andrew's put in a successful protest (on the basis that the pitch markings had not been properly chalked out)[16] and won the replayed tie - at Lorne Park - 4–1.

By December, it had been taken over by fellow south Glasgow amateur side Battlefield F.C..[18] The name was revived in 1892 by a junior club which lasted two seasons.
