1ANDYP Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 Pollokshields I assume. Some absurdly ginormous mansions there and so close to the city centre. that's like out of the frying pan and into the fire moving to pollokshields. Full of Asian gangs.

Deedee Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 Ah lottery winner. Congrats mate. Is the posh bit not full of Asians. Afraid not. Just renting a flat in amongst the big houses. No Asians in my block but quite a lot nearby. Don`t care where anyone comes from, as long as they`re not annoying me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thplinth Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 Alas Polloksheilds is a complete no go zone. Absolutely all pubs (or at least it was). I had to go to the Sherbroke Hotel ( i think it was) I recall for a pint and reading the paper when I lived there. off polloksheilds.

Easy to get the train into town and for the motorway and Pollok Park nearby. Won`t be here forever though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Govanhill Jacobite Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 The scary thing is the council meeting I hijacked to get in had no idea how bad it was or didn't want to know, as Andy said they were allowed to stand on street corners in their own Country, When I pointed out they were not in their own Country I was called a racist, was told they were selling their kids for sex, was told they had not heard anything, when I said had they heard I was assaulted basically 100 yards from my front door had they heard of that, they said no and I then said that's exactly my point, just cause you have not heard about it doesn't mean it's didn't Blxxdy happen, when was brought up about them not taking out there rubbish they said they could not read English, fair enough why not do wee leaflets in there own language was told they could not read that either, seriously why the feck were they there. Lost about £20K on my house but the wee lassie below me must have lost more than me. When I was trying to sell my house, 3 viewers never turned up at night and was raging but was told the next day they were too scared to get out their cars. One minute they were not there then the next day they were, they were brought in at night so no one knew Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Them standing on street corners is something they do, caribbean folk do it in London, it's part of the culture. If they are not commiting a crime, Its difficult to move them on. They are selling their kids for sex. Do you have any evidence for this and if so, did you notify the police? People didn't visit your flat because they were too scared to get out their car I find hard to believe and your last sentence is just lol. Also, 'hijacking' council meetings it's not a great way to make your feelings known. Edited October 15, 2015 by Mox Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't hesitate in getting the appropriate authorities notified if I KNEW this was the case and wouldn't let up until I knew they had investigated.

I`ve heard plenty of second hand stories of this going on but nothing concrete. Wouldn`t surprise me though.

1ANDYP Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 I`m over the other side, near Pollok Park really nice there. A world away from the other side of the shields. Those flats next to railway line look amazing. An old mates family used to live there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1ANDYP Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 As fan as I'm aware there are some brothels in the area. Not sure if it's selling their kids or not. Is this the same mob who the northern irish burnt out their homes and chased over here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1ANDYP Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 Seems to be a few do gooders on here who don't have 1st hand experience of the place trying to tell folk who live or work there that they know different. The glasgow council have ruined this area with the scum they have brought to the area. For which they were weighed in by the UK government. It is indeed a he'll hole. If any of you want a guided tour. Don't hesitate to ask me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lamia Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 Going to a pub on Victoria Rd with loads of football fans bit different than walking around during the day and night.
