Mon the cup final journeys!! When are other people starting theirs? And where from? Probably at about 11 o'clock in Saturday, I'll leave my home in Broomhouse, hop on a tram to York place and jump on a city link 900 to Glasgow. A completely shit journey in comparison to yours and much respect for making it! ???? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maroonedinbriz Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 Flight up to Glasgow from Bristol tomorrow afternoon. 2 nights in the weej (should have booked a hotel in Edinburgh - schoolboy error I know, but no cancellation option). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamboFever Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 Train from the South coast to Gatwick about 1130 tomorrow morning, fly up to Edinburgh, few jars with my diehard Jambo cousin and possibly his inexplicably Hibby brother, train to the weej Saturday morning. Cannae wait! I missed the 2013 League Cup final due to work, so we've never lost a final that my cuz and I have attended together ('98, '06, '12). BRING IT!

Forza Cuore Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 (edited) 2 minutes ago, sassenach said: My journey starts with a lift to Middlesbrough for a train at 5.45 am. It's an early start, but it was the cheapest ticket to Glasgow. I have a booked seat between Darlington and Waverley, but my ticket is open from Edinburgh and I'll arrive at Waverley at 9.20. I can't decide whether to head straight to Glasgow (unfamiliar city, strange locals) or have breakfast and an early drink in Edinburgh. Any suggestions welcome. Breakfast at the Wetherspoons on Waverley Bridge and a pint. Head through to the weeg about midday.

Dalstonjambo Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 Working tomorrow, so a 10 minute tube from Bank to Kings Cross in time to catch the 4.30 train to Edinburgh. Physio appointment in the diary to explain the early finish. Staying with family. Bus through on Saturday morning and back after. Got an open train ticket back for Sunday, just in case. Very much expecting to be on the 9am train out of Edinburgh, but who knows, I might not get back to London until very late after seeing a parade...

grumpy rebus Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 Quick turnaround after work (and school for my son) and leave for Malaga airport around 18.30 tomorrow. Arrive at Edinburgh airport sometime around midnight (it’s Ryanair so could be anytime until and 3.00 am ?). Straight to the mother in laws for some kip. We meet my daughter at Haymarket about 10.00. Get to number 10 hotel for lunch about 12.00 then a wee stroll to the match. Spend Sunday watching the parade and enjoying the day. Fly back to Malaga on Monday and back to work in Nerja on Tuesday (hopefully with a massive smile ?) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember I met your flight which landed in Glasgow. It was amazing to see the number of Jambos coming through arrivals, looked liked a Hearts charter had arrived. Ron Ross was on the flight and we gave him and his daughter a lift through from Glasgow. Pleased to see you coming "home" again, and with your wife too! Hope you have safe travels. My son has traveled with his US girlfriend. I hope you both enjoy being back in Scotland, and it goes without saying that I hope we all have reason to celebrate on Saturday. Being raised the right way is important, it produces good people! HHGH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Number 10 hotel will be dodge city for Hearts fans. A friend tried to book his bus in for lunch and the hotel declined saying that they were only catering to Celtic fans on the day. The place will be totally rammed with Celtic fans, I'd actually be surprised if you even get in if you have Hearts colours on. I'd avoid it at all costs, esp if you have your boy with you. Better go to an establishment that will be Hearts only. Cheers John S Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
