The Scotias/Clutha are folky/Lefty/older mans boozers.
In my head it was “a good crowd”.
The Vicky has been renamed, but everyone still calls it the Vicky.They are really good boozers, proper older boozers. Had many a cracking night in them, ffs my 40th was in the Clutha and the pub next door The Victoria.
Shame that, been poured into a taxi out of there on a few occasions.The Vicky has been renamed, but everyone still calls it the Vicky.
Wasn't serious! Was just playing on something danny said the other day.The Horseshoe is a notable 'non football' puibs. The Scotias/Clutha are folky/Lefty/older mans boozers. The Scotia and Clutha are more Celtic inclined because of the clientele but not where you'll get the Rebs on the jukebox or a rebel singer/band playing.
Which I knew.Wasn't serious! Was just playing on something danny said the other day.

I’ve had many great nights there

Well, Yossarian has been in two traditional Glasgow boozers, so he can supply data. Yoss, see many fights?Confirmation bias and/or my lazy stereotyping but I momentarily saw 'nights' as 'fights'
I'm ashamed of myself.
Well, despite that reputation, I’ve always found Glasgow a very friendly city. I lived and worked there in the 90s, often doing night shifts or back shifts in the Gorbals. I’d get off the Subway at Bridge St, walk through Hutchesontown and onto Ballater Street at all times of night. Never felt in the least bit under threat.I hardly ever saw any fights in 'rough' London pubs so I'd be very surprised. it was my lazy association of Glasgow with violence.

And I’ve been going to Glasgow for nights out for decades, in various parts of the city. It’s a great place. I’d go back and live there like a flash, maybe in my retirement, if the circumstances arose. Sometimes check out prices of flats there in idle moments.
