Gentlefolk of the bounce world..

Need a wee bit of advice..:hmmm

I'll be in the north stand on sunday!
But first of all I'll be in central station from around 9.30..

Now here's my dilema!! How do I get to Hampden..

This is without having to following those with Scottish accents wearing green/white/black/purple/yellow/grey(keeper) tops. I want to at least look independant

 

[U What?]

Does anyone know the name of the nearest station to Hampden's North stand?
Someone in work obviously a ceptic git reckons get off at Kings Park??

Is this near the North stand??

Get a taxi. Should only cost about a fiver I reckon.

If at all possible avoid Central would be my advice. That's where all the jambos are having to change trains and I strongly suspect the clockwork orange will look like this

We're staying in Newtown mearns...

Then getting the train to Glasgow Central where I'm going to throw my bag into left luggage...

Then train/bus/taxi out to hampden..

We'll be in central from around nine thirty in the morning...
No pubs open at that time so may as well go to hampden for a bit of atmosphere

Just as easy to throw them into left luggage and have no burdens...

Thanks
