Quoting limited to 3 levels deepPosted Image
In Govan in my day there were 5 CSC's, 4 chapels, 5 primarys and St Gerards sec school just off Broomloan Road :clap:

I had the 'honour' of being the Emerald treasurer for 8 years. One Scottish cup we won ina ll that time :cry:

Jim Craig, Joe McBride, Tommy Coyne, Ronnie Coyle all good Govan men :worthy:

The old winey was some place in it's day and don't forget St Ants juniors.

CB - Used to amazed me that you had all those midden pubs in Brigton and then within a short walk you'd be in Timland in the Barras (the area I mean not that mad shop)

Must have been war down there in the old days.
That film on Youtube is spot on. I know of a few of the guys, but dont know them. At the end of part two it lists them all.

The social commentary is spot on and nothing has changed since. Just Govan is dead.
What has happened to Govan is a damning indictment of the political policies of the last thirty odd years.

The day after Thatcher was elected in May 79 I, then 11, was at the dentists in Shaw Street. Govan Rd and Langlands Road were really busy then - as busy as Dumbarton Rd and Byres Rd are now. After the trip to the dentists my mother had to do some shopping. Into the fruit shop on Langlands Rd and the talk was all of the first female PM. The woman who ran the shop said as Thatcher was a woman she had to be given a chance. A few months later I headed south and on my first trip back to Govan before the year was out the said fruit shop had closed. Langlands Rd is now terrible to look at and you would never have thought it was at one time a thriving commercial centre.

Govan is now like a ghost town. Just about everything of my youth, including Iona Court were I lived, is now gone - the school (St Saviour's - three of the four buildings I was in are gone - the only one still standing being the infants that became the Summertown Centre and it does not look long for this world), the swimming baths at Summertown Rd, St Saviour's Church, all the other non-Catholic Churches, St Ants Juniors have moved (talk of the Bens moving as well from Tinto), St Gerard's secondary school (although the writing may have been on the wall back as far as 82 as they could hardly offer me any subjects when I came back up the road and I ended up going to Lourdes in Cardonald), the Wine Alley, Teucharhill, the houses on the other side of Iona Court. All in the space of 34 years - the things that are the focus of a community gone.

Is it for the better? Given how a community was destroyed I can't say it was.
