Hello all,

as Mikey has actually remembered to lock the Official Match Update thread this time (well done Mikey :wink:), I thought I should start the totally-unofficial-nonsense-thread, where anything goes.


Travel Updates?

Team News?

Weather Forecasts?

Fashion Advice?



Urgent: For anyone whose journey includes transit through Germany, please remember that the Rail Strike lasts right up to 18:00-CET today. Don't say I didn't warn you!

Was planning on giving today a miss as I had an exciting day planned trimming some ivy that's growing across the window, slow cooking a shoulder of pork and making soup.

Really tempted to sack that and nip up and catch the train and go cheer on the Hibees.

Should be at Haymarket in less than 50 minutes, instead I'm stood on Lancaster platform waiting for a train that may or may not arrive, and to make matters worse there's a load of Jambos stood near to me. Nightmare.

Was offered the chance a while ago by the work for a wee all expenses paid trip to Murrayfield to watch some egg chasing. I'm regretting taking them up on the offer now. Expecting to be glued to the phone watching the hibs updates all day

Not even left Lancaster yet, and even yet this train is apparently bound for Glasgow, the second one to Glasgow since half 9 and none to Edinburgh!

Anyone know my chances of getting a refund on my match ticket?

Just leaving Paisley where it is nice and dry although early sunshine has departed . Had breakfast in wee cafe opposite the Library . Got the waterproof jacket in boot of car with gloves and hat if needed yon terraces at Cowdenbeath are exposed to the elements if it does start to rain .
Moan the Hibs ,keep the unbeaten run going but want the win even though very battle pitch that assume won't be in best condition and facing a team that will pack defence .But Stubbs has been training them on an even narrower pitch so he should know who key players are to unlock that defence
Will settle for 2. 1 if that's what it takes and we may have to win ugly but don't care , a Just keep winning

Is my mate the Killie fan on there? He ran for that one at Lancaster while I foolishly waited for the Edinburgh train six minutes later that never turned up! If I don't get to Carlisle in time for the 13:01 (if it arrives) then I'm turning back round. Gutted.
