Our matches were always finished before the GSTQ bollocks, I remember St Brendan’s club from Linwood were also in the same league, wonder how that panned out at the end of the night when they played each other. 😂 52 minutes ago, Scotland Ever More said: I actually thought it was a myth that they did that at the end of the night in hun establishments. I used to drink in the Rangers Club in Linwood probably from about 17-20/21 (so around 94-98). It was £1.20 a pint and had a cracking jukebox and free pool tables through the back! I can honestly say on none of the umpteen times I was there till the end of the night and later (my mate sometimes worked behind the bar) did I ever hear them play GSTQ.

They must have stopped that tradition by the time you drank in there Fairbairn, they definitely played GSTQ at the end of night during the mid 80’s.

Yep. I was 18 in 1986 and barred by 1987 despite my Dad being a member and my Mum working behind the bar occasionally. It was an eventful 2 years and included me nearly getting arrested whilst doing a drunk roaster a favour. 😀 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quite liked the St Brendans club as they regularly got amateur boxing events on. They were always a good night out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did they still have the portrait of the Queen up on the far wall then? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
