Romanov Stole My Pension Posted August 31, 2008 Share Posted August 31, 2008 I think you can get details of Glasgow Hearts from the official Hearts site somewhere, not sure though. Which uni are you studying at? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glasgow Hearts, who are celebrating their 60th year this year, leave from Clyde Street at 12:45 for home games, through Burnside to East Kilbride then straight to Edinburgh. You can contact Rossmaroon or myself on here for the bus, however, if you are not living in Glasgow and stay anywhere near East Kilbride or Ayrshire, then you can get the West of Scotland Hearts (as I am sure PJ1 has suggested) which runs from Ayr through Troon, Kilmarnock and the outskirts of East Kilbride. Your choice - see http://www.heartsfc.premiumtv.co.uk/page/SupportersClubAddresses/0,,10289,00.html for info. PS - We DO run to all games, whether it be buses or car sharing.

A Boy Named Crow Posted August 31, 2008 Share Posted August 31, 2008 Found out last week that Glasgow Hearts is the second oldest supporters club in Scotland, things you never knew you never knew... EDIT - Sorry I forgot to mention, Glasgow Jambos are the REAL Jambos, fact. That journey along the M8 every other Saturday takes commitment (or does it mean we should be committed...)

Romanov Stole My Pension Posted August 31, 2008 Share Posted August 31, 2008 To be honest, i looked up Glasgow Hearts at the start of last season and it worked out far better for me to get the train. It'll be about the same price as the train for home games, faster, more comfortable, you can take a few cans for the journey and youre bevy time in edinburgh is completely up to you. And then most of the away games now are through west and cost a few quid to get to each ground. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rossmaroon Posted August 31, 2008 Share Posted August 31, 2008 The train is cheaper, IF 3 or 4 people travel together. However, Glasgow Hearts Supporters Club drops you right at the ground (not a mile away) and takes you home from Gorgie, too. The bus is a community of Hearts supporters and there are sweeps, etc on board. The Club orders tickets for all games, including concessions. We organise weekend stays at Inverness, buses/trips to all Hearts European games and trips to all Scotland away trips. I know I have a vested interest, but you are welcome to come along and try the bus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

neverlikedElvis Posted August 31, 2008 Share Posted August 31, 2008 went on the Glasgow Hearts bus a few times in the 80s when I lived through there. was a busy bus-good guys but you used to get pestered for cash (sweeps and the likes) every ten minutes. http://www.hearts-mad.net Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
