The club no longer exists and has been replaced by Glasgow Perthshire F.C., which plays in the West of Scotland Football League.

However the club then suffered another heavy defeat, by a score given as 12–0[4] or 13–0,[5] to eventual finalists Thornliebank.

Although the club had been not insubstantial, by 1883 it had been eclipsed in its neighbourhood by Cowlairs and Northern.

Saracen Park was put up for sale or rent in November 1884,[9] suggesting the club could no longer pay its rent, and the Carrick side, which had existed at a junior level for a decade, took the ground over from 1885 onwards.
