    So this is probably an over asked, maybe tedious question but...I'm travelling up from Essex, England for the Ross County game on the 12th November. Although my wife (who I'm coming with) has been to Glasgow before, last time she missed the game and just got out of it at the Sarry Heid :60:. So useless at any information. We are staying at the Euro Hostel but on game day what's the best route to soak up the atmosphere?

    To be honest although probably sell out there won't be much of an atmosphere anywhere on the way to the ground. You might be better to head along early to the Celtic Supporters club on London Road, only a 5 minute walk from stadium. The GB meet in there before games.

    If walking from town I'd stick to following the Gallowgate all the way and if any pubs catch your eye you'll be safe enough to have a pint or two. There'll be plenty of others walking that route.

    If you're coming from the Euro Hostel, you're only like a block or two down from Central Station, so simply walk east along Argyle St (the KFC/Pizza Hut on the corners opposite Central and the Celtic shop is just a couple of stores along from the KFC, so easy to know you're going the right way) til come to the Gallowgate and the various pubs there before following along London Rd up to Paradise. Won't be hard to spot.

    I'm blind and I can do it... you'll be right :)
