rossmaroon Posted June 10, 2011 Share Posted June 10, 2011 Glasgow Hearts Supporters Club has been running almost uninterrupted since 1947, making it one of Scotland's oldest supporters clubs of any team. We run buses to all home games and many away games (and have members who travel to all games home, away and Europe). We always welcome new blood, returning members, or even those who want to attend the occasional game. Our normal route picks up in Clyde St, Glasgow, Burnside, then East Kilbride town centre. On the return, we usually drop first in Glasgow, then Burnside, then EK. In addition, we organise trips to watch Hearts in Europe. If you are interested, PM me or message me on FB (Ross Meikle) or by mobile 07759263862. Look forward to having you on board in July.

John Longmuir and I saw you passing the Station Bar near the end of the season and wondered if you would ever show up on the bus. Usual pick up time is 12 30 at Clyde St, but give me or Ian a shout and he'll send you a newsletter stating the times of the buses for the first month. Cost is ?10 return.

Libertarian Posted June 24, 2022 Share Posted June 24, 2022 When we moved to Glasgow in 1969 me and my Dad started travelling on the EK Glasgow bus and did so for many years. Great times. I'm now back in Edinburgh but my son is due to start at Glasgow University this year and hopefully will be travelling on the supporters bus. Jimmy Mann and John Buchanan and Ian Russell are the names which I remember. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
