    My best moment was near the end of the game, McGinn taking a throw in and a Hibs fan pipes up “ your better than John” and quick as a flash he replied, try telling that to my bank balance ! , comedy gold ��

    Hoping the club gets in touch with BSC Glasgow about this. If they do something then fair enough, if not then we should loan two or three promising youngsters out to their main rivals for promotion. Our youngsters get playing time, they languish in the lower leagues and lose out on the revenue of promotion, job done.
    One things for sure. BBC won't ever bring this up!

    Edinburgh has more beautiful scenery and history than Glasgow. Glasgow has a better selection of music venues, pubs and shops.
    Pubs!!!! Nah.

    I did enjoy Oneonga’s twist and feint in opposite directions that left the BSC player turned inside out and flat on the turf (plastic).

    Pie on a roll and lovely cup of tea for three and a half quid was the highlight for me closely followed by a boys dagger hat blowing off and ending up pushed 15 foot up the fence. Thankfully the wind eased and he recovered it

    And the junior huns as well. Actually more spoon burners in the west of the city than Leith.

    That's amazing. If it's not true, I don't even want to know.

    Weegies want to be us, they are a jealous lot.

    When I'm in Glasgow for any reason, I'm never really happy until the train leaves Queen Street, or I'm on the M8 in a lane with an Edinburgh sign above it.

    To call it a sh*t hole is an insult to sh*t holes.
    Agree, can't get out of the place fast enough but the trouble I have found any time I have been unfortunate enough to have been unavoidably through that way, is getting back onto the M8 going east. Signs for Edinburgh before you are on the M8 are few and far between or seem to lead you one way then disappear at the next junction invariably leading you round in circles or onto the M8 heading west. Weegie ploy methinks.

    Even the West End isn't any great shakes.

    I think the only thing it beats Edinburgh for is the number of pubs and clubs.
    Pretty sure Edinburgh has about double the number of pubs but a smaller population (although that is predicted to change in about 20 years). Probably down to Edinburgh's brewing history, there used to be over 200 here at one point.

    Glasgow beats Edinburgh for venues. The Hydro is superb. Edinburgh really should have a modern purpose built music/entertainment venue. For everything else Edinburgh wins hands down

    Glasgow has a better city centre for a night out imo, and the Merchant City is excellent.

    I've had plenty good nights-out in Glasgow, but one downside (and I don't know if it's still the case) was all the pubs closing at the same time. It was always total chaos on the streets just after midnight.

    I always preferred Edinburgh's staggered closing times for this reason.

    I've not experienced that because I would have been away for the last bus.

    I'm rarely out until midnight these days if truth be told.

    I worked in Glasgow for a year

    I thought it was a brilliant place

    Bohemian and cosmopolitan

    Boozers were friendly everyone was interested in you and wanted to get to know you

    Not like Edinburgh where everyone keeps their head down and stares at their pint and bar staff have a “ what are you doing in ma shop?” mentality

    I even came back with a weedgie accent by the way

    If push comes to shove salt n sauce every time

    That's the 1980's Daily Record/Sunday Mail editorial team on the phone, Billy. They're wondering if your finished with their cliches yet.

    Funnily enough it was the 1980s but very little has changed imho

    Still enjoy going through there for visits to Hampden away days and concerts always a friendly welcome but as others have said even better heading back along the M8

    Tip: Always stick to middle lane until you get to Stepps

    The town centre one way system is a nightmare

    You’ll have had your tea?

    I love a 3pm Saturday kick off in Glasgow.

    Not much of a fan of Celtic or Rangers, but a Hibs trip to Hampden or a big Scotland game are hard to beat.

    A couple before the game but I really love early evening drinking in Glasgow. It seems like everyone in the city is going out and the atmosphere is great.

    There are many good reasons I don’t live there though, Edinburgh every day of the week.

    Having had my head booted onto Trongate one night by repeat offenders, I beg to differ. Edinburgh is a far better night out. You’ve lost you’re mind.

    There is a swagger and arrogance about Glasgow. After London it is Britain's fashion capital. A friend of mine, a tennis coach, shops for his clothes in Edinburgh because he is generally ignored in Glasgow clothes shops because he is not fashionable. They like to show wealth and are quite flassy in dress which you notice when you go out. They are fairly delusional about their football teams. Poor travellers and hate to be outside Glasgow unless in a big group.

    But I do like the west end and Byers Road. First place I tasted Turkish cuisine in the mid 1970s and some cracking pubs. They to have had better music scene apart from the punk era where Edinburgh took the lead. Good for a visit especially when Hibs are at Hampden.

    Bollox it is. Manchester is fashionably superior to either but maybe not in flassy sense.
    Also have to say, Edinburgh punk bands were obscure bar The Scars. Post punk we came into our own.

    Rubbish been to Madchester a lot and not a match for Glasgow or London fashion wise. On the punk side Edinburgh was more a venue for the early punk movement than Glasgow. Prior to that the big bands often played Glasgow and not Edinburgh. We had much more stylish punk fans as well.
