Footballfirst Posted June 28, 2022 Share Posted June 28, 2022 I'm led to believe that Hearts are planning to play Bonnyrigg at Tynecastle on 9 July although nothing has been announced. There is also a possibility of a B team or U18 game against Man Utd the same day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jamboinglasgow Posted June 28, 2022 Share Posted June 28, 2022 Always meh about friendlies, unless its someone really big, would go more to see what new Hearts players are like. But considering we are in Europe so have 4 home games against potentially bigger teams, then I dont think I would worry too much about not having big friendlies. Saying that, I do think we will have a couple more friendlies against at least Championship level teams. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When did we ever play lower league teams in pre season friendlies at home. Only one I can remember was Airdrie on a Friday night about 20 years ago.

It should’ve been 12! Posted June 28, 2022 Share Posted June 28, 2022 Was thinking about making the trip to methil on Tuesday (v East Fife). Long shot but does anyone know if there’s any supporters club buses running from Edinburgh. I was also looking at getting the x61 through but think the last bus back to Edinburgh is before full time and don’t think there’s a train either. Any advice would be most welcomed? Excluding don’t bother 😂👍🇱🇻⚽️ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
