Went to a couple club nights in there a few years ago. Had no idea of its leanings tbh.
It ended up being a good laugh to be honest.Sounds like a top night and proof that diplomacy always pays off.
Yeh, I heard that too!I always thought it was a gay bar
That's the Waterloo barYeh, I heard that too!
He's a Whank.The man in question lives next to me. I am yet to have a conversation with him where he dosent drop a famous name in. I mean like passing in the street saying hello he Will mention Fran Healey or Bobby Gillespie
It was a long,long time ago,boozer along from it was as well the Wellington I think it was calledYeh, I heard that too!
I'm not defending him but he knows what I am and I know what he is so he probably thinks I'm a wank as well.He's a Whank.
I used to work next to it for years, went in a couple of times a month lunchtime/ after work it was fine. Went in about 10 years ago myself when working a rare Sunday, fhilth game was on and it was 100% wall to wall fhilth to fhilth with dubious songs. Quietly leftI'll be honest, I'm guessing that most folk commenting on the Admiral being a slop house have never been in it, or at least recently. It's a pub for office workers and focuses on food. My office was almost next door and we'd be in every Friday lunchtime and at least once a week after work. At no point was there ever any hint of it being a Tim pub, or any other club side. I would not have went to the place if it was a Tim pub.
I cant really comment on the events in the basement as I'd never been. To me it always seemed to be club or mod nights.
I used to follow Lost Glasgow on FB but left due to his obvious snp love- in and anti Rangers pish.That speccy, fantasist turd who runs Lost Glasgow was having a cry-wank about this the other day. I didn’t appreciate it was a slop-house until this thread as it’s not where I would normally go drinking. All falls into place though…
The guy is a dangerous Walter Mitty type. Matter of time before something comes out I reckon.I used to follow Lost Glasgow on FB but left due to his obvious snp love- in and anti Rangers pish.
I thought it was a gay bar back in those days, not that I’m saying you are.Has it always been a Pope pub? I used to go in now and again back in the 70s, early 80s and don't recall it being Popish.
There is 100% something creepy about him.The guy is a dangerous Walter Mitty type. Matter of time before something comes out I reckon.
Used to be a great site but he’s ruined it by being overly political. Spouting his usual pish about the red flag in George Square last week.There is 100% something creepy about him.
He posts some great pics but he is totally insufferable. Did you know that he nearly died from a bowel condition and loves Paris? Of course you did because he only posts about it three times a day.
Have also never known a guy who gets taxi drivers etc from far flung corners of the world who treat him as a brother and want to introduce him to their culture/family- oh f.uck off!
Middle class. Hutchie boy. Pretending to he edgie. Wore shorts until he was about 18.The guy is a dangerous Walter Mitty type. Matter of time before something comes out I reckon.
I've never been in the place but I've seen plenty of videos from old firm days from mates and colleagues who've been in and it's a place best avoided. On the basis of what they allow on OF days I wouldn't be rushing in at any other time.I'll be honest, I'm guessing that most folk commenting on the Admiral being a slop house have never been in it, or at least recently.

Never been a gay bar. Was one of the few pubs in the city centre with regular office type people straight from work, still is apparently but also frequented by SNP/Sinn Fein/IRA types by all accountsI thought it was a gay bar back in those days, not that I’m say you are.
It’s not really great news as the clientele will just move on to another pub before long getting that closed down and before long some really good pub will be their new target and take over. There has to be pubs like the Admiral to make other bars safe to drink inGood riddance. Another slop house going is great news.
It had the name of being a gay establishment in the late 70's.I thought it was a gay bar back in those days, not that I’m say you are.
As a young apprentice we stumbled into the Vintners one Xmas drink up,swiftly left but not before I'd clocked a kid from school who was always a tad "theatrical"......I still remember confidently uttering “Two pints of heavy” in The Admiral in 1978 as a 14 year old and getting served. Wasn’t quite sure what I was drinking, but I had arrived!
Pretty sure they served any age in those (glorious) days.
[Never a gay bar. I, naively, used to get served in The Muscular Arms at the same time and could never work out where the females were!]
That might have been MeeheeeeeeAs a young apprentice we stumbled into the Vintners one Xmas drink up,swiftly left but not before I'd clocked a kid from school who was always a tad "theatrical"......
Think I was too.I'm pretty sure I was at a strip night in there to raise funds for the Clarkston bus about 40 years ago. Always keen to help other rsc's
This is how I always knew it and had many a good piss up after work in it - but I heard a few stories about it also being a ‘go to’ bar for weekend celtic games - guess they were able to keep the two personas separate as the after work crowd would have no reason to be near it on the weekend around matches.The guy that owns it is a Celtic fan, but it's not really a Celtic pub. It's right in the middle of Glasgow's IFSD, so it's populated by after-work folk, more than anything else.
Great wee pub being bulldozed in order to build another faceless office building. Bad news for Glasgow city centre, imo, despite the ravings of some.
The owner got involved with the Thornwood when the building application was originally touted. The Admiral's closure's been on the cards for a number of years, but it was hoped that it could be saved.
Spot on mate. He’s an absolute bullshitter of the highest order. He’s been called out for it a few times now, he doesn’t seem to know / care that some folk are observant and don’t button up the back.There is 100% something creepy about him.
He posts some great pics but he is totally insufferable. Did you know that he nearly died from a bowel condition and loves Paris? Of course you did because he only posts about it three times a day.

Was his wife Ophelia there?Think I was too.

So you're guessing that most folk commenting on the pub being a slophouse have never been in it , yet you comment on the events in the basement , on your own admission , having never been in it...?I'll be honest, I'm guessing that most folk commenting on the Admiral being a slop house have never been in it, or at least recently.

Was he not involved in running one of the Dance Halls? Night Clubs years ago?Dave Ross is unquestionably in the top 3 worst people I’ve ever come across.

He was/is involved with the Garage.Was he not involved in running one of the Dance Halls? Night Clubs years ago?
