CoatbridgeBear 7,113 Posted May 22, 2015 Share Posted May 22, 2015 Few of us going through to chance getting a ticket but if not is there any pubs near the ground that'll show it and not be full of hibs wankers? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

GOAT 30,449 Posted May 22, 2015 Share Posted May 22, 2015 I'd probably go to the city centre, the leith creatures are not the most friendly. Although I think there will be tons like yourself tbh. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BF2 winston 123 Posted May 22, 2015 Share Posted May 22, 2015 The 2-0 win at Easter road last time we drank in what was called Artisan bar, wee bit before you meet with road onto princes street can mind what it's called. Pub was mixed was surprised we were allowed in with colours on but they were more than happy for our business. Looked like a racing bar lots of framed photos and racing colours Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gaz52 11,837 Posted May 22, 2015 Share Posted May 22, 2015 Just go in to the Weatherspoons at the Omni centre and either walk down in plenty of time or jump a cab Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheBluebells 6,898 Posted May 22, 2015 Share Posted May 22, 2015 They have no fans anyway so anywhere will be fine. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigDak 798 Posted May 22, 2015 Share Posted May 22, 2015 The nearest pub to Easter Road that would be Rangers friendly is probably found in Whitburn or Armadale Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Deacon 55,178 Posted May 22, 2015 Share Posted May 22, 2015 i'd stick to the top of leith walk or york place area if I was you. You will not get a nice welcome further down or at the boozers on easter road. Basement at the top of Broughton street is a decent bar. Few decent bars on Broughton actually. If you are feeling a bit saucy you can try cafe habanna, the street, and cc blooms. Planet out might be open but that's for the scissor sisters Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dutchy 1,200 Posted May 22, 2015 Share Posted May 22, 2015 Truth is there's no pubs in that area that are Rangers 'friendly', but I go to Robbie's Bar, half way down Leith Walk, opposite Pilrig Street. There's a mixture of fans that go in there, but I've watched us winning the league on the last day scenario with Rangers fans at the bar, and septic fans over by the window.The guy that runs it is also a Rangers man, but all types go there, but I'd fuck off before the hivs fans start getting back from the match. I know I'll be well out the way by the time they come crying out of the ground. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dutchy 1,200 Posted May 22, 2015 Share Posted May 22, 2015 Heard the grassmarket has a good few pubs I'd say that's a bit too far away.Also, Wetherspoons don't show football, certainly nothing that has to be paid for, that's why it's cheap.

Guest Posted May 22, 2015 Share Posted May 22, 2015 Theres rumors that hivs and Rangers will share a stand, which surely would mean the metal barricades would have to be set up to keep fans segregated? Keep safe bears you know what these hibs scum are like. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 22, 2015 Share Posted May 22, 2015 We couldnt get into any pubs before the game at the first away game this season, but you can drink in the street in Edinburgh so i just bought a bottle of wine and we had a sing song in the street.

siamthedanger 2,855 Posted May 22, 2015 Share Posted May 22, 2015 I'm based in Edinburgh and me and my mate will be going to The Globe Bar on Niddry street to watch it..it's just off the Royal Mile. Usually a few bears in there and the drink is very cheap for it being a central location!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

j1mgg 3,766 Posted May 22, 2015 Share Posted May 22, 2015 I would bother trying in anywhere once you hit Leith walk unless it is the lodge. Their scum element wouldn't think twice about lashing out, especially with weapons. Just across the north bridge there are a few places that you will be able to see it fine.Cask and barrel was an okay place as well just at the bottom of broughton street 5 main walk from omni centre, but that was a few years ago.I would probably head to the globe in niddrie street, backpackers pub, but should have two large screens and many smaller ones dotted about.

Dutchy 1,200 Posted May 22, 2015 Share Posted May 22, 2015 j1mgg: I'm banned from the Cask & Barrel. Not for anything I done, but that's just what they do, ban folk for no fucking reason. I've been up Broughton Street in Mathers talking to others that have been banned for no reason as well. There's also the Conan Doyle just over the road from Mathers. Mathers has plenty TV's in it.But the cunts that run the Cask & Barrel are hivs supporters anyway.Maybe if you have a west coast accent it's better not to go down Erazer Road, or Leith Walk. It could incense the bams, especially when they get beat. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
