Planning
A football weekend in Glasgow
Glasgow is a genuine two-ground city, but the two stadiums sit on opposite sides and the city's old rivalry means you should keep colours discreet if you are doing both. Take buses and taxis between them rather than expecting a single line to cover both.
Whichever ground you choose, the pattern of the day is the same: travel in with the crowd, arrive at the turnstiles about an hour before kick-off, and leave the return journey until the first surge has cleared. In Glasgow that advice matters most at the nearest station to the ground, where the queue builds within minutes of the final whistle.
