More importantly Craigie High.. Good melting pot of Arabs in the 70's. Much of the hard core of Neil Kidd/Hookie buses when support smaller
Lochee..Planet Bar... 80's...great bunch of Arabs. The glory times. Run buses to away games.
First game v St Johnstone 68 or so.
Kiddie/Hookie buses brings back some great times and also some feckin scary times. Hookie was an unpredictable sod but his heart was in the right place. As I said above, used to get picked up in Auchterarder until I moved from there. Wherever I was living I always made a point of travelling to Dundee to catch Horny's bus to Aberdeen. Guaranteed there would be more than a few characters on board and always a great atmosphere and laugh. F**k, I really miss those days, must be age ;D
St. Mary's then Douglas . Went powrie and Craigie high also on Neil kidds/hookies bus and few times was just one bus as I remember .
Remember it well mate. Was on one coming back from one of the finals. On top deck. Guy at front urinates into a bottle then has the bright idea to open one of the hopper windows and pour it out while the bus is on the motorway, and you guessed it! Everybody for about 4 rows behind covered. To say the guy was not to popular for the rest of the journey was an understatement 🤣
I remember being on a double decker for the replay Cup final versus Rangers scum (1-4😡) and the Windows getting put through as bus was trying to leave. Vaguely remember our bus at fir park having the back window put through too. Loved the away buses though, loved some of the great songs we had back then too.
