Pub before Celtic game

[Hibs3-2]

Which pub are fellow hibees going to pre match?

[Pretty Boy]

The best bit advice I can give is stay as far away from.the area around Celtic Park as long as you can. It's like Baghdad on a bad day.

Best bet is city centre then get a taxi or bus to the ground.

[lyonhibs]

If you're heading to Porkheid, it's not booze you want, but crack cocaine. Being drunk ain't enough to make that *****heap fun.

A turn around of Herculean proportions will be required from last night to avoid an absolute rodgering as well.

[DH1875]

Head for the merchant city area. Loads of boozers and only 15 min walk to the stadium.

[Hermit Crab]

Springfield vaults lounge bar and grill on the London rd is where we will be.

I hope thats a wind up Mr Rooney! I was in there before a Scotland game and asked what other games they were showing. "We cannae show any games big man, somebody stole the SKY dish off the wall!"
Remember being in before a Hibs game when they had a collection for "the cause", no thanks mate didnae go down well with the natives!

[HUTCHYHIBBY]

Drouthys on Queen Street is a decent boozer, then jump in a taxi to the ground.

15 mins my arse!!!

Agreed, Parkhead must be at least 2 miles from the Merchant City.

Taxis in Glasgow are cheap, if there's a few of you then it will cost next to nothing to get a cab from town.

[Halifaxhibby]

I'll be in the louden bar, with my berwick rangers top on!!!!!

OK so 15 mins might be pushing it but easily done in 20-25 minutes along London Rd.

Straight up mate that's where most of our bus goes before the game. Never had any hassle.

Few of us taking the train through, staying central for a bevvy though. I'll spend as little time as possible in the Parkhead area, they'd steal your trainers if you stood on the spot there.


Absolute *****hole, makes Tranent seem like Hollywood.

Which pub are fellow hibees going to pre match?Go if you must.But you wont pass the clashing rocks.

[Chuck Rhoades]

Seems like we have good numbers going through. Bevvying in Edinburgh first then a few on the train to Bridgeton

Restricted View is all there is left.

:agree: only had minor hassle once when we disagreed with some taff saying they were the biggest club in the world. Other than that never had any bother and one of the best boozers for getting served.

Nonetheless, no problem getting in and great service. Never have to wait any length of time to be served. The Tims in the bar are, mainly, English or Irish, so no problem there although they do seem to have a problem with "knowing their history" as many appear to believe Celtic were founded before Hibs, no matter what the badges on our respective shirts say!!

[neilmartinrocks]

Bairds or the ane ower the road Bar 67 in ra Gallowgate.
Was taken there when i went through with my brothers and their mates.
TO BE AVOIDED LIKE THE PLAGUE!!
(my brothers are tims):embarrass

[green&left]

Folk need to man the f*** up. I've bevvied on the Gallowgate, on London Road, even had one in the hun shops at Bridgeton and never had any issues.

Boy at the ticket office today said we have under 100 left...

[Dashing Bob S]

I'd suggest Baird's in the Gallowgate. A Celtic shrine but I've always been made welcome there. The locals are relatively friendly, although some would be nice, and several have obviously practiced amateur plastic surgery on themselves and each other.

[CorrieHibs]

Does anyone know if you still buy tickets tomorrow?

Haha bairds bar is quality. Good banter with the celtic fans. Most don't mind us. A few scary faces though.

Very interesting bar. Once met Bertie Auld WORKING behind the bar in Bairds. Not many other bars worth visiting down G'gate though. One or two rather dodgy, to say the least. None as bad as G@rgie though.

I'd rather pull my teeth out with rusty pliers than drink with 'Tic fans in Glasgow.
