What a great day out on Saturday and I just wanted to express my appreciation to Hearts who organized an impeccable occasion. It must have taken a lot of effort to plan and organise the March and street closures and of course the very poignant pre match ceremony. The club and its fans were very welcoming. I was with Scottish family in the Tynecastle Arms for a quick drink about an hour after the game, some of the Hearts fans saw my Orient scarf and were keen for me to sit with them and buy me a drink. I didn’t have time unfortunately as had to travel back with my own group for a family meal later but I sat and chatted with them for a few minutes and they were great.
One of my cousins had treated us to hospitality, so at the match I sat in the main stand surrounded by Hearts fans. They were top notch, as were the club staff in the lounge. Our own fans were a credit too, our numbers of supporters and all the flags looked terrific, I know the Hearts fans were impressed and I noted they applauded us at the end of the game.
I hope that we can play Hearts again in the not too distant future. I would love to welcome them to Brisbane Road, and if there is ever another chance to travel to Hearts and Edinburgh with the Os at some point, my name will be top of the list!

Glad you had a great trip and it appears all O's did.
I managed to speak to a few of you at the march as well as the Pals Gathering in the Gorgie Suite. A great bunch of lads, a credit to your team.
I'll be sure to be down for a game this season at some point.
All the best for the coming season.

I thought the walk and organisation was terrific and the pipe band and drummers immaculate , as were the fans .

We could not have been made more welcome by Hearts, Every Hearts fan I spoke to was friendly, appreciative and wanted to thank us for coming up. I really hope we can reciprocate and host Hearts at Brisbane rd. and I hope we can show them the same respect and welcoming they gave us. Up the O's Up the Jam tarts
