Was in there before our last trip to Parkhead and there were definitely a few Celtic fans milling about inside. Very good pub as you say.

Tim and Ken, a couple of my pals blagged tickets for Celtic v Motherwell from Pat Nevin (brother-in-law to Ken). That was when Pat was MD at Motherwell. They went in one of the pubs before the match and found it had a hand grenade behind the bar along with the usual IRA memorabilia. Apparently it was thrown at Gerry Adams but failed to go off. Or so the landlord claimed!
What are the two called right at the stadium?
So where did everyone go? We just went to Tolbooth and it was a decent spot to enjoy a few pints before the game. Got in the company of some guys from Galway and it’s funny how folk can work out pretty quickly you’re Hibs fans despite not wearing colours or chanting songs! Shared an Uber to the ground with another Hibbie we met in the pub.
Didn't go to the pub after all. I'd been at a party the Friday and was burst.
We were in The Hoops on the Gallowgate. Plenty Hibs fans in making plenty of noise & the singer, mostly rebel songs, played SOL at his break.
We went to the Winged Ox at Bain st on the Gallowgate. Decent boozer wi decent pub grub available. Good atmosphere too, with a good few Hibbies in.
I discovered that Celtc Park is the perfect place to go if you want to buy an Irish Flag with a picture of the Pope, a scarf celebrating the Easter Rising... or a DVD of the Pogues singing Rebel Songs while dressed as Leprechauns.
I also discovered that many of them do NOT like it when some guy walks along the Gallowgate singing Flower of Scotland at the top of his voice (whoever he was).
West Brewery on Glasgow Green. Great boozer and great beer too.
