Bring Back Paddy Flannery Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 http://www.dumbartonreporter.co.uk/news/roundup/articles/2015/02/24/525544-have-your-say-on-the-future-of-dumbarton-rock-/ Anyone planning on swinging by to see that? I take it this is a council thing but it'll be interesting to see the "Technical Presentations" I think. As much as I love the castle and local history etc it sums our council up. Spending cash on tarting up the castle and the surrounding area in the midst of horrific cuts. Priorities and aw that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sweet Pete Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 Quick non-Sons related question for the locals; who is it that runs the Glencairn? Nipped in on Tuesday night for a bite of dinner as I had remembered them being known for their surprisingly good meals. Had the misfortune of the flattest pint of Guinness ever and mediocre food. Has it changed hands since I was last in (few years ago) or did I just have bad luck? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You do come out absolutely hummin' of food though! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sweet Pete Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 Shame. Used to really enjoy the food at the Milton Inn as well, but the past twice I've been in it's been garbage. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Used to really enjoy the food at the Milton Inn as well, but the past twice I've been in it's been garbage. Milton Inn is a heap ran by a misogynistic scum bag. Avoid at all costs. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sweet Pete Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 Milton has always been a heap, but their food and prices were surprisingly good, much like the Glencairn in that respect. Both being more or less dumps that were able to produce decent grub, also both have flat beer, that's a weird coincidence. But the food at the Milton definitely took a nose dive in the past year or so. "They could smell the Bankie off you and served you accordingly." They could smell the money off of me you mean. The only reason I visit the wee town now and then is to spread the wealth around and keep the local economy ticking over. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nowhereman Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 That's my take on it. Chris Turner's fitness and form isn't the result of a wage conspiracy, it's the result of him being a human and humans being susceptible to injuries and loss of form. Which oddly enough coincided with Bet Butler going bust. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bring Back Paddy Flannery Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 Which oddly enough coincided with Bet Butler going bust. His loss of form started in August. No way the two are related. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Played for Renton Craigandro when he was younger. Cracking footballer in his day. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Howlin' Wilf Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 Never had a bad pint -or meal in the Glencairn. If you get a bad pint surely you refer to the bar staff? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
