This was always how it worked. Went to Shawlands in mid 2000s. Every other day, there'd be a gang of Hillpark weans at the back entrance to Shawlands. If you had Maths last period, you'd be greetin because guaranteed there'd be a fight for you to go through or try to avoid. Maths building right next to the back gates. They wouldn't let kids out the front if they had Maths last because the exits were too small up the front doors, you'd get a rattling off a teacher if you tried heading that way.

Other days, Shawlands neds would head over to Hillpark to do the same to them. Was always absolute chaos and I never understood why the two schools had problems with each other, but its likely to just be something stupid like them being neighbours.

Had a pal who lived in Thornliebank and he had to get a bus that went by Hillpark to get home. The few times I went to hang out at his, it was like a zombie apocalypse. Driver pure flooring it down the road while tonnes of clatty Hillpark weans are hitting the windows with anything they can get their hands on. They used to make human chains across the road to get the bus to stop, jump on and start battering anyone in Shawlands uniforms.
