A Unionist screwball.
Not sure it was a long time ago and although I am through in Paisley maybe ten times a year not lived there for 30 years.John307 on here. Johnhad every Rangers programme bar one from the 50’s. Brian had some collection of Rangers stuff too. You know Zander from Barrhead, he was ex Shanks also. Another mate of mine.
I travelled with the west end true blues to London for the Paul millar testimonial in 1986West End True Blues.
When The Tudor Loyal bus was in Aberdeen after one game we had to go to the polis station then the hospital to pick guys up !I travelled with the west end true blues to London for the Paul millar testimonial in 1986
Truly mental trip
Remember the Tudor loyal as well But no recollection of the paisley north - going to ask my dad
I went with the johnstone bus in the early/mid 80s and we all parked at the broomloan end ( except for celtic games ) so remember most of the buses - use to be entertaining parking with the away fans
Eddie is a good friend of mine. In Prestwick now.I don't remember the Paisley North RSC (before my time) but I went on the Tudor Loyal a few times.
EH & KF ran the bus then I'm sure.
Sadly big Strachan and Brian Fulton are away to Grand Lodge above, but wee Sammy is doing great. Keith ( BlackAdder ) is still on the go, he was spotted in M&S Paisley last week, a stauncher person I've yet to meet. I hope I'm not mistaken with this.
Paisley buses were always lively and could look after themselvesWhen The Tudor Loyal bus was in Aberdeen after one game we had to go to the polis station then the hospital to pick guys up !
Was that dougie McGregor from renfrew mate. Stayed next close to me, fair chance it'll be him as he was a right rangers man.I was a member of Paisley North from the mid seventies until about 1982. Bus ran from the Three Horse Shoes Bar and the bus was run by Bobby Holmes and then Dougie Mc Gregor. If memory serves me right Bert McKirdy was the president. We had a memorable trip to the Aston Villa game about 1976. I still have a Paisley North scarf with the print of King Billy on the back. Unfortunately don’t remember. Gordon Evans. Happy Days.
Is the keith guy surname begin with F?Brian was a really nice guy Went to Belfast with Him, Keith and Eddie in 2012.
As far as I know Keith not keeping too well these days. Been looking after his parents and doesn't go to games at all now from what I've heard.

Just out of interest mr bam, but when did you stop being a screwball? When the bones began to creakBrian was a gentleman, I was a fu.ckin screwball at that time but he even had time for screwballs like me.
I don't know anyone who had a bad word for him.
A sad loss.
Of all the guys who went on bus it is Eddie I bump into most. Usually in Central Station.Eddie is a good friend of mine. In Prestwick now.

Glad The Adder is doing well. Despite his bark he is a gentleman.Ive known him for years with working with him, his dad sadly passed away, his mother is in RAH at moment but shes got out isolation last couple days, Id texted him early today to see how his mum is
Cheers mate.Buzz007 .Think Ian(Mandy) would be about 62/63age group went to J.H.S.Believed he and family had older brother all moved to London late 70s early 80s.If I remember correctly older brother was Brian Rangers/ Arsenal daft.He also went on Paisley North.Seem to remember sister also name can't remember.
Brian Fulton was one of the best Bluenoses I've ever met and an absolute gentleman into the bargain.
I was at Brian's funeral at Woodside with my Rangers colours on.
A true Rangers diehard!
Cheers mate. That's definitely him, the viscount was the schemes local pub.Yes used to frequent the Viscount pub. Not seen or heard of him in years.
Keith is still with us,see him around Paisley sometimesIs Keith still around? Him and my dad were very good pals back then.
I spoke to Keith in the Piazza a few weeks ago,with his mum.he didn't have the same enthusiasm for the clubBrian was a really nice guy Went to Belfast with Him, Keith and Eddie in 2012.

Think it was Back Sneddon Street just round the corner from the Tudor. I left the area in 1983 but did use the Tudor Bus a couple of times when I got back for games.
Another member of the Crisps n Coke Loyal. And sometimes a comic!Tudor bus was good but Kennedys was the pub at that time I grew up outside it packet of crisps and copious amounts of irn bru the north RSC's was good my older brothers tell me but Kennedys was in a different league it was bedlam
Too many people from the dark side prob. We are similarI spoke to Keith in the Piazza a few weeks ago,with his mum.he didn't have the same enthusiasm for the club
I’m pretty sure the Kennedys bus became the West End True Blues.Tudor bus was good but Kennedys was the pub at that time I grew up outside it packet of crisps and copious amounts of irn bru the north RSC's was good my older brothers tell me but Kennedys was in a different league it was bedlam

Was it not Paisley Central that picked up the Kennedy mob at Bridge Street.Kennedy's was my old man's pub. I remember the West End True Blues stopped there for a pickup.
That'll be the same Dougie that helped start the Renfrew Loyal then.Cheers mate. That's definitely him, the viscount was the schemes local pub.
I know his lad, he's a bear too.
My old man says it was.Was it not Paisley Central that picked up the Kennedy mob at Bridge Street.

Welcome to the madhouse mateLooking through some of my uncle’s stuff today and came across this.
Great memories for me travelling over from Clydebank to get supporters bus. Think it left from 3 Horseshoes Pub.
From 1975, his name was Gordon Evans if any auld Paisley bears out there.
I also was friends with Brian, cracking guyBrian was a very good friend of mine. He must have passed about 5 years ago now. Big Iain about 2-3 years. Still see wee Sammy at the occasional Lodge meeting. We used to call him Gerry Berry, due to his Gerry Adams style beard. He took it in good spirits. Cracking wee guy Sammy, and Brian was a diamond. Still miss you mate.
I also was friends with Brian, cracking guy
Cheers! Been good fun looking through posts, and some good memories for the Paisley guys.Welcome to the madhouse mate
Baffles me when people on here say Paisley is a poet area. Totally false.
Remember going to Feyenoord, on the train through from Charleroi. Met a load of boys from paisley, we were all firing in to the drink. We had paid our tickets, every stop these super troopers disappeared then re-appeared.
The ticket collector was doing his rounds, everytime there was a stop they all jumped off at the front, and dived back in at the back. The collector worked back to front. I remember one of them was called monkey. That's all. Think they got all the way from belgium to holland without paying a bean.
Cool story i suppose.
Last time I was home I went up on the Castle Street bus to Ross County (the game where Alfie mugged their keeper to score) and Monkey was running the bus. I don't think he normally does but he did that day.
Correct
