Any MCFC supporters clubs in Scotland?

[bennyboy]

They replied to me asking why I’d like to join and what I want to get out of joining their club before they review it. I thought anyone could just join these supporters clubs to meet up for a few pints to watch games etc or is that too easy?

You might kick with the wrong foot.
Happens a lot up here.lol.

Same and then they say no. :(

Don‘t think the Club should allow it. Have written to City to say so.

I might start my own Central Scotland OSC. All welcome.

I said I was wondering if there was any travel , or meet ups for TV games, then got the green light…

Glad for you but wouldn’t join them now if they begged me.

Where are you based mate? Would be good to meet up with a few city fans to watch TV games when I can’t make it down without an interview process to join! Ha

I managed to book hotels for the Bournemouth and Palace matches.

It was a bit of a nightmare with the complications. I booked the Travel Lodge at Audenshaw for the Bournemouth match. I don't trust the trains at the moment so it will mean a drive from Edinburgh.

It was harder for the Palace match. I eventually booked the upmarket Novotel. Amazingly it was cheaper than the Ibis, the Mercure, or the Ibis Styles. It is normally far more expensive. It was not cheap but after cashing in 6,000 Accor reward points I only paid £94. I hope that the trains are operating by then.

Carronshore near Falkirk so not too far away from Dunfermline!

TPE not involved in the strikes but worrying anyway

Yes but TPE are notorious for last minute cancellations due to ‘unavailability’ of crew from long before any strikes were taking place.

For years every 3:00 Saturday match we would catch the TPE leaving around 6:15 getting back in time for Match of the Day.

Last season this was a nightmare. Quite often the train did not arrive or it arrived and dumped every one off at Preston. From there we had to get a Glasgow train and hope that we could walk to Queen Street quick enough to catch the last train to Edinburgh. Once we failed and had then to walk to Buchanan Street to get a night bus costing a fortune and a taxi from Haymarket. We arrived home after 3:00am.

At one stage TPE would arrange a bus or taxis when they cancelled at the last minute. But last year they just directed people to Avanti Trains even if there wasn't one.

I passed the interview.

Friendly enough email. I think I might give it a bash for a season and see how we go.

I always find it a bit weird on Bluemoan that people queue up to sneer at people who give their time for free but bow down to City Administrators / Directors who get paid tremendous salaries. Good luck to those offering to set up their own Branches.
