Hearts roll call

[TopSix]

I'm looking forward to this one and am thinking a pub in town instead of gorgie would be the best bet.

[ictchris]

The pubs in Gorgie are brilliant.

[Pele_Is_God]

I'm in for this one. £25 for an adult is steep is it not? Think it was only £20 last season.

[12th Man]

The games on BBC ALBA and Im looking forward to the team showing the doubters what they can do.

[WYNESS101]

I'll be there hopefully +1

Not the best away day in terms of the surrounding bars. I like to compare the bars to the Alamo friendliness. Gorgie bars are not friendly at all.

But the atmosphere is always great in the stadium. Top Six......... Grassmarket?

[RossP]

Ach, why not; travel booked. Tynecastle is the only SPL ground I've not been to yet. A chance for an Illegal Jacks burrito as well :)

What's the story with getting away end tickets?

In terms of pubs Tynecastle is a brilliant away day. THere are numerous tremendous boozers either side of the ground. Aside from Robertson or Stratfords I wouldnt' say any of them are unfriendly.Top Six is just a New Town yuppy who is too scared to go to a proper boozer. He probably wants to go to the Dome in George Street for a couple of pre-match Cosmo's. ;-)

Haha. He prefers Spoons. Famous fir their coffee mornings and buzzing match day experience ;)

[ictchris]

Wetherspoons is horrific. Better drinking in the street than in there.

RossP- phone club and order ticket and collect them on day. £24 for this option or pay £25 at gate. Robbo's is under new management and the cops are there every night... avoid!!

[Alex MacLeod]

Diggers is the place to be.

[TopSix]

Just checked The Dome's website - bad news I'm afraid ICTChris - they don't have a cocktail menu! How about afternoon tea and then a leisurely stroll to Gorgie? (Or we could just have a few tins at my place.)

Seen that as well!

I think it has 3 police cars permanently outside every weekend.

Ardmillan hotel, it has a wee beer garden at the front and not too dangerous.

[PaderbornCaley]

It'll probably end up being Diggers that most folk go to. Despite my bes tattempts to encourage people to venture into the old town lol

[ictchris]

I'm doing exactly as I said in my text message - pub for 9am, booze, booze, booze, then the tgame then off to the Jack the Rippers to the max out my credit card. Anyone that doesn't do that isn't a real man.

[ictchris]

A quiet half in Robertson's anyone?

Just noticed this; cheers for the heads up.

I'll phone tomorrow to see if I can buy a ticket and collect it at Tynecastle. I take it there's a gate or ticket office I go to at the away end?

[HumbersideDude]

Okay then, I give in. I'll go.

[old caley girl]

If you check out the travel thread there's a hospitality offer as well!

[Pele_Is_God]

Ross - Ticket office is in car park behind the rickety old main stand. Personally, I would just go for pay at the gate.

[TopSix]

Roseburn it is.
