I see you have found Wikipedia, and your cut and paste function - good work. However you have altered the content to suit your previous error, which is a bit sneaky hey! You still haven't provided a source for your '1450' date - I'm guessing because you made it up. Here is what Wikipedia actually says:

**The area around Glasgow has hosted communities for millennia, with the River Clyde providing a natural location for fishing. The Romans later built outposts in the area and, to protect Roman Britannia from the Brittonic speaking (Celtic) Caledonians, constructed the Antonine Wall. Items from the wall, such as altars from Roman forts like Balmuildy, can be found at the Hunterian Museum today.**


***Glasgow itself was reputed to have been founded by the Christian missionary Saint Mungo in the 6th century*****. He established a church on the Molendinar Burn, where the present Glasgow Cathedral stands, and in the following years Glasgow became a religious centre. Glasgow grew over the following centuries. The Glasgow Fair reportedly began in the year 1190.\[18\] The first bridge over the River Clyde at Glasgow was recorded from around 1285, giving its name to the Briggait area of the city, forming the main north–south route over the river via Glasgow Cross. The founding of the University of Glasgow in 1451 and elevation of the bishopric to become the Archdiocese of Glasgow in 1492 increased the town's religious and educational status and landed wealth. Its early trade was in agriculture, brewing and fishing, with cured salmon and herring being exported to Europe and the Mediterranean.**

If you even just Google, 'when was the city of Glasgow founded?', this is what you get - maybe you can read the big letters here a bit better:
