    Scottish Cup away day memories

    What's your best memories from away days in the cup, be it a match, goal, atmosphere, size of our following etc (not including finals/semi finals)


    Huntly away in 1995 stands out for me for a few reasons, the crowd we took up, very drunk support, Jim having a go at the fans behind the goal when the ad board fell, had to stand on a wee wobbly wooden table to see anything, group of Huntly fans attacking a couple Arabs pre match, we stayed the night at one of the wee hotels that were right next to each other

    haha Huntly was an absolute invasion. Was right at the ad board behind goal when it fell over and Wee Jum called us hooligans afterwards. The board just collapsed after a mini sway of about 10 folk - PMSL. There is a video of it and im right at the front - cant recall now if i fell over or not but i am sure someone will remind me. Im afraid I was very very drunk

    Great memory that Shedka!

    Probably Huntly for me an all, went with i think the Fort? in the Ferry, with my dad, uncles and a few of there mates (I was 13/14)

    Bus up was a laugh, until abody realised the hot pies were in the underside of the bus. Up at the match, Huntly fans with blow up sheep.
    The Utd boy in the kilt who shoved the match ball under his kilt
    Standing on the "terracing" aka a sand dune
    Then the bus breaking down on the way back home, having to wait for another bus to pick us up.

    Another memory of Scottish cup was Arbroath away where we won 3-2 in 94, I got sent for pie and bovril for my dad and uncles...miss 2 of the bloomin Utd goals!!! Come back and see Arbroath fight back.

    Partick Thistle away in 2010, had just started travelling with the Arctics, sitting in a cold bowling club, deep snow on the green, watching a fox run across the green with a pint in my had...and the fact we won with a Hand of God and a cracking goal from Goodie
