GorgieRoad Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 Stuck on the train to and from Edinburgh back to Dundee with a bunch of Rugby fans, hold me back. Feel obliged to go since it's been almost a month since I last saw us but by f**k if there ever was an excuse to give it a miss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crùbag Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 Seriously though AC, your best bet may be parking at Inverkeithing and training it as they are so frequent. Might train it then an aw. Rugby should be over by 4pm, no? Think the games only last 40m a side with a 10 min break. Plenty time for the rugger buggers to disperse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plenty time for the rugger buggers to disperse.Trains will be heaving after rugby finishes right up until last train. Pay weekend as well will bring a few more out.Still a better option than the car tho Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They always start late with the anthems and fannying about too. Should still be done by quarter past though. Unfortunately that means they'll be hitting the teain station about the same time as us.

HTG Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 This, its a noble effort on your part sharing a journey of that length with the egg chasing tossers. ^^^ Going to the rugby on a corporate gig imo. Worst type of scum tbh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jamtart1972 Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 With the rugby being so close by id avoid taking the car if possible. If you have too I'd try park in one of the streets behind the horseshoe inn or chance my luck at the old VW garage which iirc doesn't have a barrier up and there's parking behind it. My In Laws stay in one of those streets, there's alway parking restrictions when the rugby is on, fortunately they have a driveway so i can park in there, best piece of advice is to NOT take the car and allow the train or bus to take the strain.

jamtart1972 Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 Just give us the title points now tbh. In a warped kind of way i would love for you to end up with egg on your face on Saturday evening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jamtart1972 Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 Which is extra irritating as I've got tickets for both games. I'm currently planning on missing the football as Scotland vs Italy is liable to be a closer contest Heart of Midlothian AFTER Scottish rugby ?????? WTF !

topcat(The most tip top) Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 Murrayfield or Haymarket Haymarket is probably simplest if you don't know the neighbourhood . Especially if you need to go in from McLeod Street Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
