BEE 4,880 Posted January 8, 2016 Share Posted January 8, 2016 Fuck knows about the tickets but you need to give more details about what you're looking for to answer 2 and 3. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobthemod 31 Posted January 8, 2016 Share Posted January 8, 2016 Red Lion for number 3Agree with simply the best great place and friendly atmosphere. Pints are good as well Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bombaybadboy08 15,660 Posted January 8, 2016 Share Posted January 8, 2016 2. Probably better sitting or standing at Ibrox as that's where the game is and will offer you the best view.3. The Polo Lounge is your best bet and there is normally sausage on offer pre and post match. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Young Bob 1,360 Posted January 8, 2016 Share Posted January 8, 2016 Tickets will be on sale a couple of weeks before the game.For a first visit I would try and get seats in the Main Stand because if you dont you will be looking at it saying that looks fecking great and I wonder what its like to sit in there.As for pubs the Wee Rangers is probably best for a first visit. Post match it depends so you could walk down to The District then go overto Partick. Louden might be of interest but its to busy for me.

Hoping to get in somewhere near the away end but I don't know the names of stands and stuff like thatBroomloan Front Area 1 is where the 'group' that stand are - it's behind the goal. Would suggest that if your under 25. Atmosphere is pretty much the same everywhere else (non-existent).Louden Tavern is just across the road from the stadium and is busy. Several pubs on Paisley Road West which are a bit quieter. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's dead there unless we're playing a rival and even then it's not great even though we are doing relatively well (for my era)But we are all under 25 so I'll give that a thought as well so thank you Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If your into spicy Wiener then BBB is always offerng his wares at The Polo. I think he does discounts for groups but best to check with him just in case I have made an arse of it like RF have just done. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
