Anyone any experience of the city centre for a beer in the evening...any neutral pubs and the like...just trying to stay clear of bhoys and bears.

In Glasgow it's a "Teddy bear" a "ger"a Ranger just as a "Bhoy" is "hoop" or a "Celt."What's a bear?

Re: Glasgow.
I am planning to make this trip with 'er indoors, and hadn't actually thought of this, but it's a fair point - I don't want to end up somewhere for a quiet jar or bite to eat, only to have some shaven-headed weegie nutjob pick up on the accent and back me into a corner asking me what foot I kick withbrowner wrote:Anyone any experience of the city centre for a beer in the evening...any neutral pubs and the like...just trying to stay clear of bhoys and bears.

I hear the venue might be switched to Ibrox - slipped in between the Annan Athletic and East Stirlingshire fixtures.

First 4 matches to be televised according to Sky schedule, though it can change but getting to final last year will have moved us up in the pecking order.

Re: Glasgow.
Don't know about city centre, but Ashton Lane in the west end has a great selection of bars & restaurants, one of which is an old cinema (still showing movies I think) and out on Byre's Road, the Curlers Rest is a top spot for grub or a drink.darkside lightside wrote:I am planning to make this trip with 'er indoors, and hadn't actually thought of this, but it's a fair point - I don't want to end up somewhere for a quiet jar or bite to eat, only to have some shaven-headed weegie nutjob pick up on the accent and back me into a corner asking me what foot I kick withbrowner wrote:Anyone any experience of the city centre for a beer in the evening...any neutral pubs and the like...just trying to stay clear of bhoys and bears.

Re: Glasgow.
Anyone know any good bars around Scotstoun ie one's within an easy 10 minute max stagger of the ground?
Re: Glasgow.
Can't comment on the quality, but there's the Three Craws on the Crow Road beside Jordanhill Station; or McNabbs on Dunbarton Rd in the other direction.
