The People's Chimp Posted July 24, 2008 Share Posted July 24, 2008 Calling Glasgow based Jambos - esp but not exclusively southside, i know there are heaps of us in shawlands - how are you planning on getting through to games? My usual for the last few years has been - wake up late, hungover and disorganised, run into shower, run out and jump on the 38 bus to queen st, miss my train, get the next one, make it in time for KO (just), or get along early enough, up to diggers and happy days (until KO). Anyway I digress, waht i mean is I usually jump on the train, although I sometimes fire through in my car if there is no post match pint planned. How are you all planning on getting through, just there might be some sense in car sharing, or even just getting a train through at the same time? I've pm'd GHSC as I dont know if they run buses through. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good plan mate, I tend to take the motor through to most games, however would like to be able to offer any Hearts fans a lift through if they wanted. And also on the occassions that I dont take the car, if I could scrounge a lift through would be great. Would save me having to bus it to Buchanan Street for 45 mins, then horse down to Queen Street to the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chester copperpot Posted July 24, 2008 Share Posted July 24, 2008 Could we not just use this thread to keep fellow Weej Hearts fans updated on how you're travelling etc etc. I dont mind letting people know when I'm taking the car, and when I'm needing a lift. Dont mind getting folk at somewhere central either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've pm'd GHSC as I dont know if they run buses through. Glasgow Hearts run a bus to every home and the majority of away games.If you PM Ross(he's on holiday at the moment)before the well game i'm sure he'll keep you right regarding bus times etc. I usually travel on the bus unless there is a drinking session planned(which is too often to be healthy:wacko:.) Hope some of this helps.Cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamboinglasgow Posted July 24, 2008 Share Posted July 24, 2008 when I go through to a home game (when I have the chance) I usually go through on the Friday to stay with my parents and thenwatch U19's on saturday morning and the the senior team soon after. Take my car, though it is not often I get to do this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big D Posted July 24, 2008 Share Posted July 24, 2008 I see we go by bus and car, and I tend to go by railway. Crossmyloof to Central, swift breenge up Buchanan St to catch the train at Queen St. I've left the house at 10am and been in the Golden Rule by 11:40 using this method. however, I would be open to car sharing too as there will be far fewer bevvy sessions this season. Can't really be bothered with a detour via EK on the Glasgow bus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Romanov Stole My Pension Posted July 24, 2008 Share Posted July 24, 2008 I go by train too, i'd be happy to travel with Glasgow Hearts but i doubt it would be cheaper or faster and the train journey lets me have a couple of tinnies for the journey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Das Root Posted July 24, 2008 Share Posted July 24, 2008 I usually miss my train as I'm still wasted from the night before and shamble up to Tynie via my folks or a bus from Haymarket I think we should charter a plane, then parachute out over Tynie, after a few attempts I'm sure we could all land square into our seats in time for kickoff.

Romanov Stole My Pension Posted August 20, 2008 Share Posted August 20, 2008 I'm moving back to Glasgow in a few weeks time and always get the train, but it fairly adds up. If any others who get the train fancy getting those group discount fare things i'd be up for that, save ourselves a bit money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We should even post our experiences travelling through (which I will once I've been oot with Cecil on Sat ) Aye, they could be interesting...but I don't know if anyone will want to read much about the typical post match return to glasgow...usually involves too many beers, a haggis supper, a bottle of irn bru and an embarassing sleep on the last train catching as many flies as possible.

Naw, normally involves me calling the wife, begging her to come pick me up, and being in the dog house for the next 2 weeks as I've got a car full of weegie's telling her that they really really appreciate the lift home whilst guiding her to the nearest kebab shop. I'm sleeping at this point, as its normally 3am. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The People's Chimp Posted September 27, 2008 Author Share Posted September 27, 2008 With it being a cash gate tomorrow, if anyone is making the last minute decision to go, there are 2-3 spaces in my car for a lift up to dundee. petrol money is all that's needed.
