Ive just received an email from hearts saying that the fleetwood game may be moved to another date due to blackpool pre season games so be carefull if your booking hotels and transport.

That's bad planning, a lot of people are already booked up, I was just about to book trains 

[Pasquale for King]

I think we should be playing a European team if possible at Tynecastle, possibly the 19th or 21st now that these two horrible ***** are playing at Murrayfield on the 20th. 
We seem to take an age to get these dates filled, at least two are kinda organised so far.

If that's the case then I'll miss the match due to being on holiday. I missed the 100th anniversary one as well but, if I hang on until 2074, I'll catch the 200th anniversary one as a 117 year old.   🥸

What else does the email say? I haven't received one. Seems strange they haven't put anything on the website.

I sent them an email asking about tickets this morning and reply was .

We will sell tickets for hearts supporters in the coming weeks when fleetwood send us our allocation. This match may be rescheduled due to blackpools pre season friendly taking place the same day.

Not unless they’ve changed their plans. Both clubs have said it’s in Blackpool.

Even if the Sunderland game is in Blackpool the two grounds are about 10 miles apart .

I think it may the fact that both sets of fans will descend on Blackpool in the evening

Fleetwood have a capacity of less than 6000 and Blackpool around 16000. Do Sunderland and hearts fans have a problem with each other don't know just asking

[bigdav]

 

[Italian Lambretta]

The only good thing about Sunderland playing In Blackpool the same weekend all the shit hotels will be fully booked😂

Leave the 4 star hotels for the Jambos 👍

[The_razors_edge]

Heard tonight spurs and Tenerife are definitely happening 👍🏻

Don't think there is a problem but chuck both sets of fans in the centre of Blackpool with cheap drinks and they may well be.

Spurs are heading to Japan & South Korea pre-season and play their first match against Vissel Kobe on 27th July, they are supposed to be heading to play us first before departing for their tour. 

They just played Newcastle over in Oz probably reserves

Hopefully they're able to arrange a game v Tenerife.   There's also CD Marino who are in the equivalent of the Lowland League.

I would suspect we have a game with Tenerife already arranged, as it would be a bit odd to fly out to there to train when for months there has been talk of a game and not actually play a game.

They went to Spain last year, albeit mainland Spain. As you say, given the chat about it I would guess a game will happen.

Spurs game confirmed, Wednesday 17th July, 7.00pm ko

Possibly a hint to the new home kit? An imprint of the 150 year badge similar to the 1998 kits? Or just a graphic lol.

I assume that the Fleetwood date is set and not being moved, as rumoured earlier in the thread?

[Cameronstheman]

Anyone doing the train that day for Blackpool and help me getting the times for a booking, am rubbish at this stuff ..TIA

E mailed the ticket office yesterday. They said they had heard nothing but if there was a change it would be announced on the website. Not confidence enough inspiring to have me booking train tickets yet.

Maybe better holding off the now mate. It was myself that posted about the possibility of it being moved. The train might be more confortable but good old flix bus is around 23 pound return edinburgh to preston. Hopefully it does not get moved as i. Sure some folk have already booked.

No. We're away at Blackpool. Selfishly I'd like to see Fleetwood get moved to the Sunday so I can do both games

No definitely not. The friendly at Tynecastle is 2009 was a great day and one of the reasons I now get up to watch Hearts as many times as possible (basically when it doesn't clash with a Sunderland game).

 

On the other hand I've been to ER twice to watch Sunderland (2003 & 2011) and it was carnage both times, especially 2011 when there was running battles on Easter Road. Horrible club

Not over-enamoured playing a filthy rich english team, with a manager that already knows our players

 

What's next willie collum as ref?

Just noticed when Googling to double check the date and time for the Leyton Orient game that the away tickets are already on sale to their fans.

 

Not sure if people were already aware but pricing is £10 for adults and £5 for concessions.

That allocation seems very low. We’re an attractive fixture for them.

[neilnunb]

Mate seems to think we're going to be playing Raith but no idea of date/first team etc.  He probably got it from twitter/Facebook mind you so could be a load of 💩

I wonder if the away cage has been built 

 

 

Looking at the fixtures Leyton Orient is the standout game for me

A bit late in the day for me to comment, but Costa Rica would have been a decent place for a pre-season workout.
