topcat Posted January 19, 2010 Share Posted January 19, 2010 Altogether now And now the season is approaching it's conclusion On various occasions we've Followed Hearts to various venues such as McDiarmid park and as far west as St Mirren park We've employed various modes of transport in these travels including public omnibus and automobile. Although not exclusively limited to the aforesaid methods for example some of us have on occasion utilised the railway network. Many of us have ventured as far north as Pittodrie We have no fondness for Hibernian indeed the very thought of them induces nausea although we must stress that's only in a metaphorical sense So let us raise out voices, Those Hearts supporters of all ages and both genders who can afford the time and expense will be travelling to continental Europe, Unless of course the competition only provides us ties against teams in UEFA member countries who are geographically on a different continent like Beitar Jerusalem or Trabzonspor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

topcat Posted January 19, 2010 Share Posted January 19, 2010 Should Hearts be playing on across the channell there is now absolutely no point in undertaking a massive civil engineering project as there already is a tunnel between Kent and Pay De Calais Should that be out of operation we could travel by ferry, We would enhanse the festive nature of the trip by decorating the vessels by tying scarves around the railings as Funnells on commerical ferries are so big none of our scarves would be long enough to reach round. In general the stars of the 1982 world cup such as Alessandro Altobelli and Paolo Rossi are of little concern to us, as they are all in their 50s by now although in the cases of those that have gone into management, like Zbigniew Boniek, it's conceivable that they may be coaching our, as yet unknown, opponents. When those of us that can make it are abroad the supporters of Hibernian will be stuck somewhere decidedly less exotic such as Portobello althoug as European games are played in the evening they'll probably have gone home from the beach by then and be busy at home shooting up or molesting their children Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would mean that their team bus would have to travel to Paisley via Perth. There would have to be some disastrous amount of road closures for that to ever happen:ninja:. By the way, how do we know that the 'Hibs will be in portobelly' while we're overseas. Not beyond the realms of possibility I suppose, but I seriously doubt that every time we play abroad all the Hobos suddenly crawl out of their hovels en masse and head for the beach.

King of the North Posted January 20, 2010 Share Posted January 20, 2010 "Travelled far; by bus and car." Presume this is Not the one individual using two modes of transport for the one 'trip'. I left my car outside my mates house on a Friday night once, got the bus over there saturday morning to pick it up and then drove to the Gillsland (rip) before going to the game, thus fulfilling the criteria outlined in the song, travelling 'by bus and car' . I think this is obviously the type of matchday experience the Europe song is attempting to capture. However, I wouldn't class it as 'travelling far by bus and car', as I lived in Fairmilehead and he lived in Southside. A round trip of no more than ten miles. Having said all that though, the important thing is this - this is a pish poor thread and I want no further part in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
