luckydug Posted April 22, 2019 Share Posted April 22, 2019 Hearts not running any buses from Tynecastle ? I know they have buses for the hospitality guests but they don't seem to want to know about the ordinary fans these days. For a club that is supposed to be fan owned they have turned very eletist under the present ownership. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great days and very reasonable priced as well. I think the closest thing to that nowadays would be the chance to part with about a grand for the 'honour' of a seat on the club official charter.

feedthefox Posted April 23, 2019 Share Posted April 23, 2019 Would enjoy going on a bus but taking my two wee boys so not always that practical, anyone else looking at driving then recommend you go to www.yourparkingspace.co.uk You can pay for someone's own car parking spot in advance, it's all official, well run and good comms with space owner (Uber style feedback etc). I've taken a spot 3 mins walk from stadium for £25 (there's many 10-15 mins away which are a bit cheaper). Fantastic idea and is a win/win.

Has fan ownership been cancelled ? I know we won't be fan run but I thought we would be fan owned through FOH. Anyway point I am making is that there is nothing being done for the ordinary fan . The club only seems to be interested in money makers ,hospitality, tours, functions etc. I realise the club needs to make use of the improved facilities to increase turnover but imo the ordinary fan the guy that used to stand on the terraces has been left out. Take the new stand for instance there isn't even any TV screens to keep fans informed unless you are prepare to pay to get into one of their lounges the facilities are no better than before. Unless I've missed it there isn't even a betting kiosk. I miss the old stand at least it had character and I even miss my pillar ☺ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For a club that is supposed to be fan owned they have turned very eletist under the present ownership. I travelled on the club buses to Munich as well, and one or two others but hell when age starts catching up with you it gets harder to remember which ones. I think Bologna was one of them and Liege as well are two I remember. Possibly Vienna as well. Sure the buses always picked up in Lancashire as well, somewhere round about Altrincham as Manchester Hearts boarded down that way. I've also flown with the team on a few occasions and it is a touch more expensive as you say. It actually gets a bit frightening when you rack up just how much money you dish out getting to games, but they are a lot of fun all the same.

Went to Dublin and Leige as well. ? They ran a bus down to Dumfries early on in the Championship season. It was really handy there and back ,instead of changing buses and trains. The bus was an old tank and they had the cheek to charge £15 no concessions for it. That is the only occasion I can recall during the Budge era. Of course if you are prepared to spend hundreds on hospitality then suddenly it's not a problem for our soon to be fan owned club. There can't be many non OF clubs who refuse to put on buses for the fans to get to a cup final.? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
