What Is It Like For Visiting Supporters?
Away fans are located in the lower tier of the Broomloan Stand, towards the Govan Stand and the bulk are located in this corner of the ground, below one of the large video screens. The facilities are fairly good in this area, as well as enjoying a decent view of the playing action.
Where To Drink?
Most bars around the vicinity of the ground are normally very crowded and not particularly away fan friendly (although they have been superb with the Geordies in previous visits), so it may as well be an idea to drink in the city centre before moving onto the ground.
James Prentice adds; 'Away supporters tend to head for bars towards the Centre of Glasgow, as there is less chance of any hassle than when around the ground. For Rangers fans, there are several good bars to be found around Ibrox. There is the District Bar on Paisley Road West, which is an excellent, typical Glaswegian pub, and the Louden Bar, which is just around the corner - a Rangers fan's heaven and a real Rangers pub. The Stadium Bar on Copland Road is OK. There are also chip shops and a plethora of chip and burger vans around the ground of matchdays, as would be expected. Also, there is a relatively new caf? in a car park opposite Ladbrokes' Book Makers on Copland Road which serves good meals at cheap prices'.
How To Get There By Car & Where To Park
Leave the M8 at Junction 23 and head towards Govan/Clyde Tunnel on the A8 Paisley Road West. You will come to the stadium on your right after about a mile and a half. The roads around Ibrox become pretty congested, so please allow some extra time for your journey. Street parking.
By Train/Underground
The ground is at least a couple of miles away from Glasgow Central & Queens Street railway stations. Either jump in a taxi, or proceed down Argyll Street to the St Enoch Underground Station and take the Inner Circle underground train to the ground. Ibrox has its own underground station, only a few minutes walk away. The station though gets exceptionally busy after the games. Alternatively, there always seems to be a number of buses running by the ground which are heading back into the City Centre,
James Prentice adds; 'Ibrox Underground has huge queues after games, and some supporters may
prefer to use Cessnock Underground Station on Paisley Road West, as fewer people seem to use it on a matchday. Turn out of the stadium and go left on to Edminston Drive, and the station is about five minutes' walk away after the road joins up with Paisley Road West (Adult single tickets are about 80p). While it is a tiny bit longer to walk to Cessnock, you may well stand a better chance of getting on the Underground more quickly than at Ibrox. Buses also run along Paisley Road West, and can take you right into the City Centre every couple of minutes. Getting off at Bridge Street is about 90p Single and is a two minute walk over the River Clyde for the Centre of Glasgow'. Otherwise if you are feeling particularly brave you can embark on the 40 minute walk back to the city centre.
