Subway stations

[WalterSmith72]

Looking for a hand here FF, getting the subway tonight into the town for a very rare occasion don't fancy waiting in that queue after the game, is there any stations that are a further walk but a less busy?

 

[Withambear]

I usually use cessnock, about a 15 minute walk.

 

[ClubFootZzZ]

Cessnock is a 5 to 10 minute walk away and quieter, will get on okay if you walk there.

 

[GreegsysGloves]

Cessnock would be a good shout, short walk from the stadium and will be quieter.

 

[glasgowguy87]

Govan has usually been quiet when I've walked past it after a game

 

[Howlin Wolf]

Cessnock although busy at times is definitely much quieter than Ibrox.

 

[TheRoofeIsOnFire]

Govan is about 10-15 minute walk away. Would probably head there.

 

[stonewall Jackson]

If using Govan be aware of mentally challenged scum hanging around. Safer to use Cessnock.

 

[Sancus]

Yes, Cessnock much safer than Govan.

 

[Khal Drogo]

The other option is to nip into the louden for a pint or two then by the time youre done Ibrox station wont have much of a queue left (if it all)

 

[cochise]

As above, Govan or Cessnock, but on no account should you leave early to cover the 15 minute walk

 

[Skeletor]

depends on what way you're going on the subway
if you're going via Partick, go to Cessnock (so you're on the stop before Ibrox as the train from Ibrox will likely be full)
if you're going the other way, go to Govan for the same reason

 

[3600superally1968]

Stay to the end. Subway queue goes in quick (about 15mins max)

 

[superallythe2nd]

Used to get on at Cessnock back no bother after staying til the end

 

[bigfellathanks]

Cessnock is quiet. I'd probably just go to Govan though few mins extra walk but head Ibrox bound you'll get a seat and be straight on the train at Govan as well - no queues.

Cessnock or Govan

 

[maca3d]

As above, pint in the Louden, then virtually no queue

I can remember running the gauntlet there in the 70's if I had decided to get the No. 19 back to Drumchapel. Adventurous times

 

[Blue Phoenix]

Been going to Govan subway for years. Never once seen anyone hanging around or any issues.

 

[NE Cornerbear]

Cessnock or Shields Rd

Kinning Park is closer than Shields Road.

 

[Bluenose1872]

Cessnock or Govan

 

[The Duck]

Cessnock best for you mate

 

[DBTrueblue]

Kinning Park is always really quiet and not much further than Cessnock.

 

[WalterSmith72]

Cheers all for the help, think Ill jump to Cessnock or Kinnin park, only got the subway less than a handful of times over the years hate waiting in the big queue

 

[SJwatp]

Usually just lift the wee man up and walk right to the front

 

[Oldned]

By the time the subway reaches Govan it is stowed out and you will most likely not get on.

 

[Bouldy B]

Cessnock - means you can stay until full time without joining the queue at Ibrox!

 

[Harryrfc]

Kinning park,quick pint in the bellrock,sorted.

 

[wearetheppl]

Govan and get on before everyone and get a seat.

 

[MountFBear]

Goven is usually quiet and not that far of a walk

 

[Fin5769]

Cessnock is probably safer (and slightly closer) than Govan Cross.

 

[MagneticFields]

By the time the subway reaches Govan it is stowed out and you will most likely not get on.

Not if he is going the other way - Ibrox next stop

 

[Going456]

If you’re able bodied and fit enough, Central is a 40 minute walk away.

 

[Potnbear]

Kinning Park is only minutes past cessnock, always empty and only 4 stops till city center

 

[choppy72]

If you’re able bodied and fit enough, Central is a 40 minute walk away.

Yes

We generally just walk into town

Generally good banter during the walk in

 

[Henderson55]

Just do what everyone else does , just leave at 65 mins

 

[giogaddi]

I usually use cessnock, about a 15 minute walk.

15 mins

You could get to the Quay in 15 mins ffs

 

[broxibearrfc]

Whenever I've got the subway I've went to Cessnock, if the queue is too long then either head to Kinnng Park or go to one the pubs on PRW to let the queue die down.

Your only possible issue with Cessnock is yes the station is quieter, however the train has filled up at Ibrox. Midweek games tend to be quieter though.

 

[Hellsbells]

Govan is quiet but the trains are full when they get there

 

[charliebrown 185]

The other option is to nip into the louden for a pint or two then by the time youre done Ibrox station wont have much of a queue left (if it all)

That's what I do, normally clears after 2 Newcy brown ales and a hot pie

 

[scottbear75]

As above, pint in the Louden, then virtually no queue

Thats what i do when at games

 

[WilldeBoer]

Don't bother with the subway. A previous thread on here said a walk into town only takes 15 minutes.

 

[zxxxxxxxc]

Cessnock is easily your best option

 

[omar]

By the time the subway reaches Govan it is stowed out and you will most likely not get on.

Not if you go towards Ibrox.

 

[DoubleWhopper]

I started walking to Govan instead last season.

Glad I do now. I've never saw the appeal of walking to Cessnock...trying to squeeze into the carriage that's already rammed?

Now I walk to Govan and can get a seat. I've never experienced anything that some people are hinting above that Govan is somehow more "dangerous".

I do the same, gets me to Argyll Street about 10 minutes earlier than waiting in the queue at Ibrox.
Never seen any signs of any bother.
Any time the barriers are up I just walk to the Exhibition Centre train station or do the walk onto town.

 

[g/hillger]

We walk down to KP underground.takes about 10/15 mins.by that time the cars are half empty going into town. Never known a queue there unless there's been an incident at cessnock.

 

[HelloMyNameIsMrBurns]

Cessnock or Shields Rd

Or just walk to St Enoch and get the Subway to Buchanan Street

 

[HelloMyNameIsMrBurns]

15 mins

You could get to the Quay in 15 mins ffs

If you walk at the best part of 8mph then aye, you could
