Alloa v Hibernian. Pre match drinks

[weecounty hibby]

Posted on another thread but started new thread on advice from someone else. See below. Ta

Right folks. I am a lifelong Hibby and long time member of the Alloa branch and also a long time member of Alloa rugby club. The club would like to extend an invitation to visiting Hibbies as Alloa town centre only has half a dozen pubs and 2000 Hibbies will struggle to get in!! We can cater for 120 (2 busloads)so if you are interested, the first 2 organisers who reply to me can book into the club. We are about a 15 minute walk to Recreation Park and buses can be parked at the club till after the match if required. I think that some of the Alloa Hibs boys will be down and I'll be serving behind the bar. So if you want to put a face to the slavering pish of Spike Mandella give me a shout. Cheers. This invite will not be extended to the visiting yam and huns. Edit. No PMs on phone as PC is goosed and don't think I can get PMs on phones

Fantastic offer.

Sure you'll have plenty people keen to take you up on it.

Where are some decent pubs for those of us who go on our own? Apologies if this is not the appropriative thread but I'll be leaving Glasgow in plenty of time

There genuinely are only a handful of pubs left in the town so here goes on a rundown
Station Hotel. Good old fashioned mans pub. Alloa supporters club meets there. Primrose Bar as above good old fashioned mans bar. Star Bar ditto. Thistle bar/junction. Decent bar as the others with a lounge as well. Wither spoons, as you would expect. Old Brewery, trendier of the pubs and probably the biggest in town. All of these will be ok but be very prepared to bump into many many Huns!! Peppes bar, Celtic pub so should be ok but be prepared to be patronised as their wee cousins and tales of the old country from guys who have never left Scotland. The Bank, full of the biggest nuggets on the planet, only to be used in an emergency. There is Weir pumps club but it is members only usually but would be ok if you can get in. Unfortunately a wee bit down on the towns heyday of about 27 pubs😢. Good luck and don't let the amount of Huns give you the wrong idea of Alloa!!

I played for the Prim football team back then when I was about 16. It really hasn't changed much

There is a small car park at the ground. A large Morrisons car park 5mins away. Large Tescos and Asda that have decent sized car parks in the town centre, again only 10 mins from ground.

Was like stepping back in time when ye entered that place ..

Do you know a Tam Wilson who travels or used to travel on the Alloa bus with his friend Eddie ?

[weecounty hibby]

We have 1 bus and 1 minibus booked in to the rugby club. Anyone else interested PM me. Cheers

[jockodile]

alloa, i remember it well from my days as the token Stirling Hibee. I recall wondering if my car would still be in the car parkopposite the Thistle after racing at the last min to the connecting bus to ER prior to the away leg at Anderlecht in 92.

Does treetops still exist or is it long gone? That was the most upscale place i think. Ventured by chance on another occasin to a place called theShip which had a bit of an edge. Later told by alloa hibees it was rough as hell. Does this still exist.

Back of dyke i vaguely recall going to after the Clackmannan council Xmas party one year.

Ah nostolgia!

Token Stirling Hibee? There are hunners o us! :-)
