Aberdeen Away!!

[crieffsaintandy]

I know a bit premature, but as thomas stated in the another thread game could be played on the Sunday, but I doubt it, Aberdeen nothing to play for, us top six or :shock:relegation fight, here is thinking more towards the first option, but hardly top TV billing required

The long and the short I priced a return trip same times as you guys in November for 2 adults and 2 kids day return £42 for us all, was sorely tempted to go for it.

Will get the general concensus tomorrow from you guys

[Tractor Boy]

I'm up for the train. Sounds like you got a decent price!

Just booked for 4 of us, £42 return for all (although two kids included) we are leaving at 9:30 Waverly, in Aberdeen at 11:50 and leave Abaadeen a5 6:15pm

Will have to be a bit calmer than Saturday, couldn't remember from about half eight onwards!!!

Aye they were...

worked out fairly well. Plus, if we go any earlier it will be too hard to keep GWR sitting down! Prob pushing it with the 930 one to be honest! :laugh::laugh::laugh:

[SaintDougie]

Definitely coming up to Aberdeen this time. End of season party (Hopefully)

Good hand arm excercise all day going to Aberdeen with a cerry oot, should have you in the best of shape for all these red and yellow card practice the next day:laugh:

Hopefully get a good squad of us and keep Thomas away from the train bog, the Peebles Plunger

[geoff was right!!]

We will never let you forget that day mate! :laugh::laugh:
If you were that sober last weekend, how come you were asking for vodka but drinking rum and not noticing?!?:wink::laugh::laugh:

will get train to dundee,then catch you guys at dundee

[geoff was right!!]

If we get the 9:30 train then it stops at Dundee at 10:35.

[st Tommy]

Balls!

Who is keen for a sunday trip? no idea about train times though! would be a well early start too!

[st Tommy]

apparently the 8am train from Edinburgh gets to aberdeen for 10.30

[geoff was right!!]

That's ****in shite, was looking forward to it but now those ****in ESPN amercian ****ers have ruined a good day out:evil:

I'll have to calm down and think about this now.

****in twats........rant over for just now!

[SaintDougie]

apparently the 8am train from Edinburgh gets to aberdeen for 10.30

Aye, still up for it though work the next day really does put a dampener on it.

A Saturday night in on the cards by the looks of it:cry:

[ryangordon86]

How about a night out in Aberdeen on the Saturday night? Could stay in a Travelodge then to the game on Sunday. Makes more sense than getting a train at 8am!

[geoff was right!!]

That's just what I was just thinking about. Checked the trains from Livi to Edinburgh and the first one is 09:54 so that's me ****ed. Only way i'll go now is to go up on the Saturday. A nightout in Aberdeen sounds good.

[ryangordon86]

We're going to book the Megabus. It's about £80 return on the train for 2 of us but you can still get the bus for £33 for 2 return.

we've booked the 13:35 bus from Edinburgh and the 15:35 bus from Aberdeen on the Sunday

[geoff was right!!]

Well after weighing up all the option.....train or bus.....Saturday or Sunday.....hotel or not, i've come to the decision.........as they say on Dragons Den........I'm out:cry:

[ryangordon86]

We've booked the Hilton down by the beach, not far from the ground. Not bad at £70 for 2.

There are rooms at both the Jury's Inn and Central Travelodge which are both minutes from both the bus and train station.

Jury's is £45 for a max of 3 in a room, Travelodge was about £50

[Thomas_sjfc]

Oh well thats that then.

Is anyone else up for a wee boozy day out in Edinburgh (Mathers/Polwarth/somewhere else) on the Sunday to watch the game.

[crieffsaintandy]

feckin spl/espn you are having a feckin laugh

still to find out if I can change my tickets to sunday or get a refund, not up for a sunday in aberdeen wi work next day.

if no refund will be calling that stecky cnut at the spl doncaster for a refund

rant over, best laid plans and all that, always another day out before the end of the season..........

[Nold]

My train tickets are non-refundable so that's me out 20quid. Not keen on a Sunday trip when I will have work the next day. Feckin joke.

[geoff was right!!]

Might not be, if we're in bottom 6 then it could be away games at Falkirk, Hamilton, St Mirren, Killie or Aberdeen. Only one for a good day out is Aberdeen and it might be a home game.

Top 6 and it's Rangers, Celtic (no thank you for those 2) Motherwell, Dundee Utd or Hibs. Again only one springs to mind and that's Hibs (although not an away day) which again may be at home.

There's always next season :sad:

Nold, says on my terms nad conditions that can get a 50% return of fair before outward trip

Every chance if my favorite fullback is playing, my nine year old would have done a better job marking McGeady, probably have egg on my face when he plays a blinder tomorrow:wink:

A away to trip to the Dee in late April might be in order

[Hazel1884]

For those of you who want to go, why not look at a car load or train up from Edinburgh then Jeanfield 208 bus up? Might be a bit cheaper for you, will be alright times for you to get up to perth I would have thought and saves driving up to Aberdeen - and the bevvy is optional!

Funnily enough I was thinking very similar. Save some pennies and make a weekend of it.

Who's up for that then?

[Nold]

Just checked and my ticket is 100% non-refundable, probably because I got it when they were offering discounts or something.

Not really up for a weekend trip.

[saintbear]

justv a random idea,52 seater
say you guys muster 30/35 and stop in perth all the guys that were at the Hibs game that you met would fill the bus
leave Edin 9.15...Perth...10.30broxburn....Adeen 12ish...stop in Perth for an hour on the way home.,back in Edin for 7[not to late for a school night]

Not a bad idea, but unfortunately I doubt if we could get the numbers for such a game. The last time we got a bus sorted for us Edinburgh lot it was the final Tayside derby last season and we could have won the league at Dens.

Thats what Nelly and i plan to do. Think we are going to drive to perth and get the 208 but will investigate trains to perth to see if they fit in so we can both drink.

Space in the car if anyone else wants a lift to perth.
