    Just to keep the thread tosspots happy, I see alcohol deaths are at a 15 year high in Scotland, a good job they have the minimum unit price. :emoticon-0138-think

    It's no wonder clubbing in the 90's was better. (I say that as someone who hasn't stopped clubbing since the 90's).

    Of course I could make it up, and more fantastical things too, viva imagination. :emoticon-0138-think

    Last time I attempted to dance and was drunk at a wedding, was in 2019 in Iran of all places. Both my daughters made me promise not to try and dance again.

    Cottingham training ground is a prime area for housing, I would assume, and value should be higher than land we could buy out of town. Why we don't look to build a training facility, like many clubs do, away from the MKM, using for a large part money generated for the sale of Cottingham?

    As OLM says, the area around the stadium isn't big enough anyhow, and better to have all teams under one roof so to speak, I would think was a much better plan.

    I have raised this before, there were ambitious plans to develop HRI area, which included a rail stop. Not sure how far it went? Let’s be ambitious and combine the two schemes, and **** the newts off! There is a huge segment of unused land going upto Hymers, either side of the railway line.

    Apparently the access road is too narrow for any more houses or they would have done it years ago

    I think Glasgow City Centre has bigger problems than alcoholism,there seems to be a huge rise in drug addicts walking the Streets these days.I was in at the weekend and Argyle St in particular has become a hot-spot for zombified people staggering around and asking for money.

    I ended up jumping on a bus up to Byres Rd to get away from it,as it's depressing at best...

    Building a halt/station there is down to Railtrack (I think). But I don't think there is much enthusiasm to expand on that line. A local councillor (Cons) kept pushing for a halt at Priory Road footbridge and got nowhere. A park and ride scheme in the parish of Dunswell was also pooh pahed.

    I just can't see a new training ground been built in the near future
    unless we get to the Premier League and don't get relegated in the first season

    Duke St's problem to be?

    An expensive attempt at literally kicking the can along the road half a mile.

    That halt idea was never going to happen, it would only be a few hundred yards from the platform at Paragon (and less than a mile to walk), nobody was ever going to agree to spend millions building it. I think there's currently a £30m funding bid in with the Levelling Up Fund for the Park & Ride at Kingswood.
