Crash is in the city centre - details are still very sketchy but hope that all GR members, relatives and friends in the area are safe. |

I have relatives in Glasgow, I doubt they'd be anywhere near the pub. |

I have fond memories of the Clutha, it was always a popular venue for those who liked live music and a singsong, on a historical note - it is one of Glasgow's oldest pubs and in days gone by it was known as The Merchant, The Weemann's, and The Pipinjay. |

Such a tragic accident when people were out enjoying themselves. I hope that the casualties injuries will not be too extensive. My condolences to all the families, thoughts and respect to the people of Glasgow for the way they responded to this dreadful accident. |
