The New Monaco. The signage made a brief reappearance during the final period before demolition.

When would the New Monaco Bar have closed. I passed it daily on my return from my school in Eastfield, Rutherglen on my way hoe to Springboig and can't ever remember it being open.

Those medals you wear on your moth-eaten chest should be there for bungling at which you are best.

Two Pubs in Clydebank closed for allegedly by-passing their electricity meters
Anyone have any further info on this story? Culprits etc.
Banjo? Heard anything?

I'll answer my own question as it seems I'm persona non Grata here at the moment .. John browns was one. Chandlers got done last month but has opened again. The latest casualty .. I dunno?

john browns for sure.the other one i dont know but could hazzard a good guess.the people behind browns have a small portfolio of other pubs so i think plod will be doing his rounds in the drum,renfrew and erskine pretty soon.alexanders bar was visited last wednesday night by seven uniformed officers but was given a clean bill of health.even checked the puggie license was up to date.

My initial thought was the Atlantis .. but given thats a Beattie house at the moment, I can't see him raising a flag.
The Chandlers maybe?

Well it's Glasgow - so where do you start?? Probably quicker to list the boozers that AREN'T dodgy....
Any watering hole on the Shettleston Road gets my vote, that comes through spending the first 30 years of my life there.... The Drum, The Marquis, Cottage Bar, Town Tavern - their "reputations" proceed them. Although the Kirk House on the crossroads with Killin St do great bar meals!
