Kilmarnock's Steve Clarke, the Scotland national team manager, has been honoured with a special bus tribute in his hometown of Saltcoats. The Stagecoach bus service has been renamed 'Steve Clarke's 11' in recognition of his achievements. The bus service begins at Kilmarnock Bus Station, around 1.5 miles from Rugby Park, where Clarke enjoyed success as manager of Kilmarnock before taking charge of the national team. The service then travels through his hometown of Saltcoats before terminating in Ardrossan. Clarke began his football journey with Beith Juniors before enjoying a distinguished playing career with St Mirren and Chelsea. He has since established himself as one of Scotland's most successful modern managers, leading the national side to consecutive European Championships before securing qualification for the 2026 World Cup. The tribute reflects the electrifying impact Clarke has had on Scottish football. While the fully electric number 11 service is helping deliver cleaner, greener journeys across Ayrshire, Scotland supporters will be hoping Clarke can continue to electrify the nation by leading the team beyond the World Cup group stages for the first time in the country's history. Clarke has given Scotland supporters some unforgettable moments, and Stagecoach is proud to celebrate one of Ayrshire's finest as the country prepares for the World Cup. The number 11 service has a special connection to Steve's story, linking Kilmarnock and his hometown of Saltcoats, so it felt fitting that 'Steve Clarke's 11' carries his name while Scotland takes on the world.
