I don’t have much of an audience and i don’t post much but I want people to know that my Dad Robert Mcglone passed away suddenly but peacefully last week. He liked a Saturday pint in the Crown Creighton Duke street (until ill health 12 years ago ) and ran a couple of football…..

I’ve been a Black cab driver for 22 yrs and started a new job on Monday with decent wages, a pension,holiday pay & sick pay. I’ve worked 3 days at it and I’ve already decided to chuck it before I waste any more time . Back out in the taxi tomorrow it is then !! 😩🚕🚕😂😂

teams from the area in the 70’s/80’s namely Glencairn and Prossers amateurs. He was a big Celtic man but was always the voice of reason to me. He also worked for Scottish water for 30 years until retirement in 1992.Just putting this on just incase anyone knew him over the years.

@SteinJock I found a phone in Glasgow city centre. Called ‘home’ from my own phone and told them I’d found it and that I was a Glasgow taxi driver and was on way home from a night out. Lass came and picked it up next day at a meeting point and brought me a case of beer . Nice touch 👌🏻

A video showing the plight of the Glasgow black cab driver. I’d genuinely be obliged if my London cab driving Twitter friends would give it a look and understand we are all in a terrible position. People in power do not like us for some reason 🤷‍♂️

@mcgonnie3 Has he ever had a performance like that before. A performance where one team on the park was on the end of numerous poor decisions and the other team enjoyed soft awards all over the pitch? I’m well aware refs are human and make mistakes but that was very worrying yesterday.
