The worst Scandal in Scottish History maybe ??

[@LegoRocker1984]

It's now pretty much a no go area, especially at night.

Do they have chips in Govanhill?

[@williamf4544]

Yes there is a chip shop up near the park but in my opinion its not very good - the chips are rubbish and the prices are too high - but most chip shops are like that now - you need to go to an old Italian type chip shop or to the seaside to get good chips these days

[@AfghanMaps6]

Yk the first fruit shop is my dads 😊❤

[@krakenSunakloser]

i dont understand why everyone thinks govanhill is a bad area, most of the old pensioners ,it seem quite happy to have muslims post erections through their letterboxs looking fot the isis grey vote at election times,?

[@davie8906]

It's a toilet. A dumping ground for the middle easts worst. (a former resident here)

[@prd1073]

Easy to be racist, plenty of manky "White Govanhillians" (life long resident here)

[@shaunohagan1491]

@@prd1073 easy to fling the racist word about to avoid talking about things huh?

[@shaunohagan1491]

funny how everyone was housed in the poorer glasgow areas though? why not Thorntonhall and the likes?

[@williamf4544]

Its nice enough and so are the people - if they could just do something about the certain few Roma woman who steal out the charity shops virtually every day it would be better though - and dont give me that sh*t about they steal because theyre poor because we are all poor here or we wouldnt be here
