Should be interesting considering hearts are away to Raith rovers too. ;)
Any idea how much to get in?
Their other friendlies are £6 adult, £4 child. Id imagine ours is the same
No confirmation from Hibs yet, just this........
Quote:
Hibernian can confirm that dialogue has commenced with East Fife FC with regard to the possibility of a friendly fixture which would take place at Bayview Stadium, Methil at 2pm on Saturday 14 July.
This follows the cancellation of Hibernian's first pre-season friendly fixture against Rapid Bucharest which had been scheduled for Wednesday evening (11 July).
Confirmation of match and attendance arrangements will be published as soon as they are finalised.
Great Steak pies at New Bayview, was there last year. You can also get into the social club in the Stadium for a pint beforehand too.
Now on official site:

Anyone know the best way of getting there by train?
Are there any buses that go from Edinburgh to Methil?
Struggling to find a decent route that doesn't involved taking the car!
You will struggle mate .. car would be best IMHO.Quote:

Does the X60 not go from Edinburgh to St Andrews? Pretty sure it calls in at the small coastal towns en route up.Quote:

Crowd of us going, so car isn't ideal.
10:55am will get you to Leven about 12:25pm
Much is that m8? Just jump on at St Andrews Bus Station aye?Quote:

Get a train to Kirkaldy.
They get a Number 13 Bus that calls at Methil. It takes over an hour so you will need to be at Kirkaldy Bus Station by 12:00.
I looked it up and it hardly seems worthwhile.
Not sure on price mate, here is the timetable:Quote:

Contacted my coach supplier to see what a 49 seater would cost. Would happily run a bus profit free if I could get the numbers. Around 20 of us had planned on getting the train anyway, so 29 across the messageboards shouldn't be difficult considering how difficult it is to get there.Quote:

Wots wrong with hanging bout Leven town Centre??? I live in Leven but 5 minute walk from town centre and regularly drink in and around there.Quote:

As for getting to ground. Max 10 min walk from bus station, back up towards bawbee bridge up to roundabout at Shell garage hang a left at the ground is down on left.
I Use to live in Leven. Your best bet is to get the x60 to Leven and get off at the bus station. Walk towards Leven swimming pool. Once there you will see ye bawbee bridge, cross the bridge and turn left. Keep walking round that there you will see the new bayview!
Simples
That's what we done last year, nice wee trip. Had walk about leven and seen Petrie in the chippyQuote:

After a lot of therapy since May 19th i am still not ready to go and watch Hibs yet, it may take a while and more therapy.
pubs in KDY open at 11 - will be jumping on the half 10 train and getting the 7 bus to leven about 1 o'clock. hopefully stay the whole game unless we're getting pumped :na na:
Buzzing. No matter what has happened, this is what we live for. East Fife away on a Saturday, ****ing love iiiiiiiiiiit!Quote:

That new keeper hasn't come for one cross and don't even get me started on Cairney. McPake looking well overrated, obviously now he's got a contract he's not interested. Clancys a ****ing imposter too.
Fenlon out. Booooooooooo.

Is the game available on radio at all today?
Capacity is only around 1900 so doubt any standing.Quote:

I was talking about the Glenrothes town centre and more specifically the bus station part of it not being a great place to spend time. :greengrinQuote:

Not much. If you're early enough you'll be ok. I'm heading off from Dunfermline in a minute.Quote:

Williams
Clancy
McPake
Stephens
Hanlon
Claros
Cairney
Stevenson
Wotherspoon
Sproule
Doyle
Id expect the above to be XI come the season
SUBS: Booth, Maybury, Monaghan, Stanton, Osbourne, Kujabi, Handling, Caldwell, Antel
No kerr, then?
It will be interesting to see how the back four lines up.Quote:

I thought we would have more than 1 trialist playing today :na na:
Williams
Clancy
McPake
Stephens
Hanlon
Sproule
Claros
Stevenson
Doyle
Spoony
Cairney

According to the official Hibs twitter, Doyle is making his debut today. Smacks of amateurishness.
How are they playing?
Don't be tempted to check the live events on HibsTV for text updates - it's still got the cup final details :faint:
It doesn't read well but they're not, they are saying we're playing with one striker, doyle and Williams, clancey and cairney are making their debutsQuote:

I'm pretty sure you are reading something into a bad piece of grammar:Quote:

Hibernian to start with one striker, Eoin Doyle and Ben Williams and Paul Cairney to make debuts for club
We are trying to pass the ball which is good to see. Claros is looking for the ball and Spoony has shown some good wee touches. Williams looks commanding and very vocal.
All in all we look all right although I am remembering who we're playing!
If that is our starting eleven in the SPL then we will struggle. Looks to be poor in an attacking senseQuote:

Glad to see Booth on bench however
Is Bob Malcom playing for east fife? Heard he signed for them
Maybe we could do a Sevco?Quote:

Williams was just shouting we were too deep, defence moved up and halted a long ball attack up the wing.
How's McPake?Quote:
