How to get to Glasgow and back in 1 day

Was hoping to take young Roy over to a Celtic game in March of April - problem is that while there are early morning flights to Glasgow, there seems to be nothing coming back in the evening. Just wondering if I am overlooking anything obvious here - checked Ryanair / Air Lingus.

Any advice appreciated
Roy
 
Onekeano, AFAIK a bus leaves Drogheda each morning of a home game around 5.30 - 6.00 travels to Larne then to Stranraer to Glasgow then back after the game . It could be worth a try. If you want I will try and get a contact number 4u.
 
Bus from Drogheda!

Leatherarse, if you could get a number for me that would be brilliant.

Many thanks
Roy
 
Re: Bus from Drogheda!

Roy, leave that with me and as the saying goes watch this space. It may take a couple of days to get it.
 
Re: Bus from Drogheda!

Onekeano, sorry for the delay but at last I have a number for you to ring . It is the St Margaret's Celtic Supporters Club in Duleek, Co Meath. Phone Adrian At 041-9880276, he may even get tickets for you. Let me know how you get on.
 
Re: Bus from Drogheda!

Brilliant LA - I'll give Adrian a call at teh weekend.

Thanks for going to the trouble - much appreciated.

Thanks
 
Re: Adrian.......

Thanks

Re: Adrian.......

Leatherarse,

Adrian called me last evening. He has booked myself and young Roy in for the Aberdeen game in April. Thanks a million for your help with this, I really appreciate it.

Re: Adrian.......

Onekeano, there is a small carpark at the bus-depot in Drogheda, (as you drive in to the depot it's on your lhs) I think that is where the coach goes from. If so there is a sign saying your car may be clamped ..ignore that. If this is not open at that early hour, there is also a new longstay carpark exactly beside the depot. By the time you are going it could be pay and display, I will keep you posted. It will only cost €2 per day.

Re: Adrian.......

Brialliant, thanks Leatherarse for all the help on this one. The way things are in the SPL at the moment every game could be crucial so fingers crossed.

PS. I Paddy Mc good value @ 15/8? Might get the expenses for the trip out of this?
 
Re: Adrian.......

Onekeano, Dom Hannigan in Meath ( my man ) @ 12/1 could be a good bet.

P.S. I might be with you yet on the trip with L.A. jnr !
 
Re: Adrian.......

Onekeano, change of plan I have just been informed by Mrs L.A. that we are going to a wedding that weekend, maybe we could do it another time?

Clubman I am not a mickey dodger I just know who looks after my belly etc:lol
 
Flights from Glasgow

L/A

If you can find a confirmed midweek game, Aer Lingus & ryanair both have late flights on weekdays.
 
Thanks Leatherarse............

Went to the game yesterday, great match and great crack... long, long day but well worth it. Thanks for the advice - much appreiciated by myself and young Roy!
