Kuma Power Posted December 28, 2023 Share Posted December 28, 2023 Weather forecast seems to be looking less and less positive for Saturday, especially later in the day. Hopefully game will be able to go ahead, but could be challenging for those travelling from further afield, especially via the trains. Hoping to come down from the Highlands for this one, but will need to see what Scotrail are saying tomorrow and Saturday morning. Fingers crossed. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scotrail as usual will drop services at the slightest bit of a problem, or more likely will cancel services north of Dundee and start from there. Same is likely with LNER services, they'll terminate at Edinburgh. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forecast is actually improving…now down to light rain at 60% chance from moderate at 80%…winds are moving to ESE from NE, marginally better for fans and means the stands will block more of it. The rail closings are the current bugbear. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grumswall Posted December 28, 2023 Share Posted December 28, 2023 At least the pitch won't be heavy. Safe travels when you do begin your journey though @TxRover be a bit of a b*****d if you can get to starks from Texas and the game is called off. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brashy's Boots Posted December 28, 2023 Share Posted December 28, 2023 (edited) Folks. I'll miss Saturday due to illness. Actually been in hospital (Vic) since 23rd and hopefully getting home tomorrow, but if Tx isn't wheeled out at half time in a ten gallon hat, a western shirt, leather waistcoat and chaps, a pair of snakeskin boots, spinning two 6 shooters and chewing baccy, I'll be very disappointed. Oh and of course needs to be part of the Inside Matchday feature. Please make it happen.

embow Posted December 28, 2023 Share Posted December 28, 2023 Absolute pits of a day weather-wise, especially in the afternoon, according to the forecast ten minutes ago. Transient snow turning to heavy rain with strong gusts of wind. Not going to be too much silky soccer on show. Could well be a bit of a lottery as to which team adjusts better to the conditions. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Station worker said it happens regularly as they get cash from the Scottish government to run extra trains, pocket the cash and then just compensate the handful of customers they’ve shafted. Hopefully the trains are running for the Arbroath fans was shite when they cancelled them on the Dundee Utd fans. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Appreciate it…London looks easy enough, but BA is already hedging the flight to EDI as possibly delayed…plus the b*****ds shutdown the DLR this weekend so getting to London City from Heathrow will suck. Perhaps BA will shuffle me to a flight from Heathrow. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can call the ticket office and collect tickets from there. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Specky Ginger Posted December 30, 2023 Share Posted December 30, 2023 There's usually a pod at the away end to buy physical tickets. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
