The announcement that no extra services will be in place for the tens of thousands of fans has been met with backlash.

Ahead of Sunday's performance from Arctic Monkeys at Bellahouston Park, fans have been warned that the last Subway service to and from the nearest station will be 6pm.

Paul Sweeney MSP took to social media to voice his frustration. He said: "It's embarrassing for Glasgow that our public transport system continues to be so primitive. The Subway system should routinely extend Sunday operating hours for major events and move to 24-hour operation all week once the new trains are operational."

Another added: "Absolutely pathetic as was the decision to close the subway at 11.10pm last night, only 10 minutes after the Muse concert finished, allowing next to no time for punters to get to Ibrox station. Joke of a transport organisation." The view was echoed by another resident who posted: "Pathetic service Glasgow City Council, put every barrier possible in place to discourage car use, but no proper city wide public transport plan in place when staging these big events."
