City Discussion: Glasgow

[DualityNSNO]

North: Ex gangsters made good
South: Flag waving, thumb lookalikes
East: Smack addled neds
West: Hipster paradise

Accurate.

Glad both my parents were from the West end.

It is one of the greatest cities on Earth, when your most photographed tourist attraction is a traffic cone on top of a statue, you know you're doing something right

There was a kerfuffle with it recently, didn't have a cone for ages for some reason. Made news and all I believe lol

As @chicoazul would say, "I've lived there!".

Pros: great city, mostly great people, loads to see and do. Mental at times in every/all ways.
Cons: Celtic

Great city that's unfortunately been tarnished by the knobheads who follow the football teams.

Take football and religion out the place and it would be one of the best.

Alas...

You leave Thistle and Queen's Park out of this!!!

Tbh the fanatics are what ruins it - my experience with both sides has been almost exclusively great.

Regarding religion (outside of sports) it's, bizarrely, one of the more inclusive places I've been to lol

The subcrawl is one of humanity's best/worst experiences

It reminds me so much of Liverpool, the way the people are, warm welcoming and good fun.

Then they go and spoil it every weekend over a game of footy. Madness.

Isn't this exactly what Everton do to us anyway? lol

Come on Rangers

Once you leave the city centre is a depressing place. People are sound though and a good laugh

Been there twice, terrific place. One thing i found amusing was it seemed like whenever i lit up a cigarette in a public area I'd have someone come up and ask if they could have one, would always oblige and once ended up in about a 20 minute conversation with 2 fellas who were blind drunk and i must have understood maybe 3 words the whole convo lol

Friendliest place in Scotland by a country mile.
The accent ,the proper one,is hard to understand tho .
There is other teams to support btw....

Boss place Glasgow, got a lot of time for their people.

Yep, no Tweedy jacket, Hunter boots there

Only ever had great times there, so I`m a bit biased.

Coming from Liverpool, seems to over rule, being English and some of the bigotry, that you can get in other parts of Scotland.

Unlike Edinburgh, it`s not up it`s own arse.

I`d go for a night out in Glasgow with my mates.

I`d go for a night out in Edinburgh with my missus.

I`m also a big fan of the fortified, Rangers pub, on the doorstep of Celtic Park, that looks like a WW2 bunker, that sells ale lol

The Lauriston is my favourite pub in Glasgow, proper old school flat-roof bar run by an old couple who take no crap.

I think there's a lot of similarities between Liverpool and Glasgow.
