Footballfirst Posted May 25, 2018 Share Posted May 25, 2018 I believe that a proposed trip for the first team to Germany has fallen through, but I haven't seen any other fixtures mooted. Anyone in the know? I've found one friendly so far for a Hearts XI (probably reserves, U20s/U18s) against Tynecastle FC on Sunday 22 July, to mark their move to Meggetland. Tynecastle will be using the main grass/rugby pitch there next season. http://www.tynecastlefc.co.uk/newsstory.php?nid=956 http://www.tynecastlefc.co.uk/newsstory.php?nid=951 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SMJ_1874 Posted May 25, 2018 Share Posted May 25, 2018 Queen of the South away, Wednesday night 11th July. Glenavon away but date still to be confirmed. This is part of the young lads transfer agreement. Nothing else decided at this stage Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kiwidoug Posted May 25, 2018 Share Posted May 25, 2018 Q o S away is one of the best pre season friendlies I ever attended. Think we went on the Pivot bus. Great journey down and back. Glorious weather. Prob around 2,000 Jambos present. Game was average as I recall but nobody cared really. Think we won 2-0 and Andy Lynch scored them both but that could be bollocks. Think is was the 1814/15 season! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Glenavon website suggests that the friendly won't be until next year. "The terms of his transfer include an agreement from the famous Edinburgh side to play a pre-season friendly at Mourneview in 2019 together with the normal enhancements linked to first team appearances."

I agree it would be nice to re-visit Craven Cottage, although I’ve been there several times the last and only time I saw Hearts play there was in the Texaco Cup many years ago! Very nice & friendly staff and probably one of the few remaining stadiums where they have one ‘end’ with no segregation, away and Home fans together! And never seems to be any trouble - perhaps the way forward!! PS well done to them on being promoted to the Premier League - another easy trip next season!!

smiler Posted May 29, 2018 Share Posted May 29, 2018 Sorry lads, I started the Fulham rumour as i heard it round the campfire from a reliable source, there was also meant to be another London game, possibly against the O's, but the trip South is a no-no unfortunately.

soonbe110 Posted May 29, 2018 Share Posted May 29, 2018 I think the only way we will be playing an English club is if we take the option of a “glamour” friendly and reschedule one of our early league games. We have friendlies already scheduled for 7 and 11 July and Betfred starts on 14 July so friendly against English opposition would have to be late June or early July. We start pre-season on 20 June. EFL starts on 4 August some of them won’t even be back in training in late June, early July. EPL is a week later than that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigAlim Posted May 30, 2018 Share Posted May 30, 2018 we're back in training on the 20th of June and now we've got friendlies on the 3rd, 7th and 11th of July leading into the league cup fixtures on the 14th, 17th, 21st, 25th and 28th (one of these dates won't be valid) then we're looking at the league season starting on the 4th of August I don't imagine we'll be organising any matches in the first couple of weeks of training, the SPFL website suggests that there are 5 league cup group stage match days despite the fact that we'll only be playing 4 matches so I think if we will be adding any more friendlies at all then our best chance would probably be if we don't have a game on the 28th and we can stick one between the group stage ending and the league starting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
