You could equally replace Glasgow & surronding areas with any major English city aswell .. try it with Liverpool, Birmingham, Leeds, Nottingham, .. and all the rest of the cities that always get featured on those reality "Cops" programmes.

No one, and I repeat, no one, in Glasgow calls it "Glasgae". Only deluded Southerners and those poor souls from Edinburgh call it that. The correct use of the vernacular is "Glesca", remember it, and get it right next time.
