Erm nope But I'm standing firm as long as we don't have a manager in place, and I'll pick and choose next season. Hell come the end of the season I might get a free top when I buy a ticket, and if this season is anything to go by, then I could get a new mobile phone, a holiday for 4, and a free meal if I buy tickets toward the end of next season for meaningless games against Hamilton, St Mirren, and Killie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
portobellojambo1 Posted May 21, 2008 Share Posted May 21, 2008 just looking for hotels etc not sure where to book proably better booking some where close to AIrport If you are looking for somewhere close to the airport Tom try here. I note you indicate you are going over for 3 days, which I assume will be Sunday, Monday, Tuesday. You may struggle to get in on the Sunday ,13 July, because the traditional parades that take place the day after 12 July, are on the Monday this year, because they will not parade on a Sunday, and the hotel will still be heavily populated. You will have absolutely no problems in this place, although it can be a little expensive over the 12 July weekend. - http://www.booking.com/hotel/gb/parkavenuehotel.en.html?aid=311076;label=hotel-100765-gb-gTJj29DvqF*c1gioxqAJXgS672114864;ws=&gclid=CIC70J3SuJMCFQyvQwodDHdMCw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

davemclaren Posted May 21, 2008 Share Posted May 21, 2008 Been to Belfast for a day once ( on business ) and it looked a nice city. Natives seemed pretty friendly, though the taxi sharing thing was a bit odd. Can't make this as I'm on hols in Cyprus on this date otherwise I would have.

If there's any trouble in Belfast in July, it very, very rarely happens in South Belfast. I was brought up in South Belfast and it's a nice, calm area.

You should be OK. It's relatively easy to get lost in the city centre, so bring a map. You'll love Belfast, it's a wonderful city. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jambosimmy Posted May 22, 2008 Share Posted May 22, 2008 aye all booked up and ready to go. flying out on the 13th early morning and fly back on 15th late afternoon i think. ?43 return from edin to belfast international. Am i right in saying that the airport is about 15 miles form the town centre? Not booked anywhere to stay as yet but i reckon it will be some shabby hostel in the city. not really too fussed at the accomodation side of things.

ULSTER JAMES Posted May 22, 2008 Share Posted May 22, 2008 good to hear hearts coming over to NI again and really looking forward to this! i'd recommend staying in city centre as the George Best airport is easy to get to (regular shuttle buses back and fro europa bus station on great victoria street) and the nightlife is obviously better with the match being played over the 12th fortnight a lot of people will be on their hols so the bars should be busy, and the parades will be on on saturday and monday if anyone is interested/ coming over early Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
