Hey Sam! I am a long-time subscriber, as you might remember, I’m the Queens Park FC supporter from the United States. I’m so glad you made this video! People should know the entire history of the game (especially the English! 😛) Not sure how Lesser Hampden is coming along, but I hope you can do a video there soon! (Also rooting for Kelty when they play… let’s be honest, it’s your Scottish club 🙃)
that area is legendary. the 3 Hampden's. one of them being Cathkin Park, former home of Third Lanark AC. Lesser Hampden now home to Queen's Park. the original home friendlies and 'world championships'. top stuff.
always emotional when I see cathkin, died when I was 14 , my whole family from the gorbals, castlemilk and South side followed the hi hi, still call in and spend five minutes can still hear the crowd and recognise where we all stood, great memories!!!!!! Mon the hi hi
Mate, you’re videos are awesome and hugely appreciated by all of us who love Football Stadia and history of the game. Thank you so much for your work 👍
Class video again, love your content!! You should deffos get yourself down to Cappielow this weekend for the game again Hamilton and the 100 year Scottish Cup winners celebrations
Of course,I knew this that Scotland have invented this sport which I have known up to this day and ever and as I am an interracial guy who has English heritage from my ancestry who was a British army during the late 1890's,I am extremely so happy and proud to see our neighbouring country to be inventing it and thanks for this extremely so fantastic video of the true history of the football through the proofs that the histories explained to you,good friend Sam!!!Scottish football lives ever,good friend!!!🏴
Great video, very interesting!! Might actually look into doing the tour myself!! Another great football history story that could potentially be really good, this week its the 100th anniversary of Morton's Scottish Cup win, and there's going to be a celebration of it at Cappielow at the game against Hamilton on Saturday!! I'm sure it would make a great video for you to see the occasion, especially with the team now in good form now too
Fantastic Video Sam well done on this tour. Love the facts and obviously a place close to my heart. Having played there for my Country at under 15 International level and Celtic. Great job mate. 👍
You should do a wee video about Cathcart Cemetery, there's so many footballers buried there, including the very first managers of both Rangers and Celtic and a guy who's record of a hat-trick against all other home nations still hasn't been matched to this day.
Cheers Sam for that! Whether it’s in our own perception or not, I believe there is a lingering sense of atmosphere and history found at many of these sites. As a kid, played at the old third Lanark ground, and have fond and vivid memories of then, great stuff , you’re doing a great service to football. I believe Third Lanark were known as the Hi HI’s. An extra note….my Dad was at that Madrid v Eintracht game all those years ago, he was very proud of that .
Brilliant Sam spreading the gospel Looking forward to a beautiful Sunday for the oldest cup Hope yer there to witness a rocking Hampden To have taken too the Scots game as much as ye have is just magic to watch Doin us proud so ye are No matter what our colours 🍀
The first Scotland v England international was at Hamilton Crescent in Partick in 1872….it ended 0-0 …..Scotland scored a perfectly good goal in the 2nd half….but VAR decided there was an infringement in the box!😂
It was disallowed because the Scottish striker raised his kilt and put the English goalkeeper off. Now if that's not an infringement, then I don't know what is?
I think you should visit Darlington Football Club for a video. The club got bankrupted by a stadium in 2012 and I think you would enjoy it and the viewers would too
Very interesting I had no idea a Scot started the FA William Macgregor I've just googled him he is actually 1 of 2 men involved in setting up either an association or a famous football club from the same area as me I'm From a village called Doune in what used to be perthshire now Stirling not far from where William Macgregor was from Braco only criticism I have of Lyndsay is she pronounced it wrong it's Pronounced Brae- co as in Same pronunciation as the start of Braehead Shopping centre. The other Famous football man from my area was William McBeath (1 of the 4 young lads who set up Rangers) hewas born in the town of Callander near where I live aswell, I only found this out about both these men very recently as there is no proper plaque etc.. or common knowledge of them which is wrong both done amazing things. I've spent most of my 36 years in the area and never heard anything about them 😕
I have a feeling Archie Leitch will get a mention. There were lots of variants of football; the FA codified the rules. In my neck of the woods (Norfolk) there was a variant of football called camp ball which was banned due to too many participants getting killed.
Thanks again for another excellent review, have you considered getting round business cards printed with your RUclips details on and handing them out it might get you more subscribers.

Sorry forgot to add that where Sheffield FC originally played which is now a B&Q car park off Queens Road in Sheffield was not a cricket ground in 1857. The likely location of the first ever match between 2 teams a couple of years later between Hillsborough barracks and Sheffield FC it’s also a B&Q car park off Penistone Road in Sheffield and again was also not a cricket ground. They were both deliberately created football pitches.
That was a lovely documentary. Now I would like to visit Cathkin Park and experience the history of the place coupled with its beauty. I have two questions; why is Celtic's ground now called Celtic Park? Why the change from Parkhead? Also, why is Celtic's name pronounced with a soft C? If I see that word in an historical or cultural context we use the hard C. but not for the football team. As a Sassenach, I've always been confused by that.
They have been playing amateur level for years if not 2 decades now. As are Abercorn ( Paisley ) once a senior club they also play amateur football now. Abercorn the original club moved around Paisley a lot end up in financial problems & went burst they played in blue & white stripes mostly like Kilmarnock with mostly navy blue shorts but they where once a senior club around the same time as clubs like Renton. Keep Safe.
Di Stefano and Puskas - football Royalty Cryuff is also up there - I once saw a fat aged Puskas on telly in a sheepskin coat wearing normal suede shoes kicked to him on a muddy pitch and he killed it dead and flicked off a pass with the outside of his foot - kids today are unaware of the games greats of yesteryear
Aye it was. We talk about that on tour. The 150th anniversary is coming up on St Andrews Day. We call it #SCOENG1872. The 150th birthday of the Tartan Army and the birth of international football right here in Glasgow. Amazing that FIFA moved the world cup to November to enable us to celebrate it. Here's a fun fact for you. England tried to organise international football 5 times.....and failed 5 times. Took Robert Gardner and David Wotherspoon, and the mighty Queen's Park to host the worlds first international football match. And yes it finished 0 - 0.
Unless they were very young children, those 'Aston Villa fans', cannot be given that moniker 'as fans of ours'. How van they not know who the great nan William Mcgregor was, shocking! After all he rightly has a statue outside Villa Park. When I took my boy to Villa Patk for the first time, I ensured he knew all about the great man, & his importance- & indeed Aston Villa's importance to the great game. Although as we live in Cornwall & my boy was Plymouth born, it is Plymouth Argyle that sees more of our money and support. However my boy plays rugby, was good enough to go all the way to the top if he wanted, I was told. I don't think he wanted to truly believe it :(. He's a joy to watch though :) & I'm super proud every time I watch him play, & why I'm not at football much these days.
Yes it was The Score Draw version not the original Umbro version it's a remake of the original all be it the official remake. It's one of the best modern shirts Scotland has ever had in my view. My favourite is the 96/97:shirt used when qualifying for France 98 used when we beet Sweden 1 - 0 at Ibrox Stadium in 96 & when we beet Latvia 2 - 0 at Celtic Park in 1997 Hampden Park was getting rebuilt at that time. Keep Safe.
No just getting the balance of history correct that England likes to slant in there favour. Football was developed buy The British & I mean British not English when I say British. One hand washes the other put it that way.
interesting history in Hampden, but I don't get the guys infatuation with trying to discredit things like Sheffield United being the oldest pro club and England creating the first league.
I think you might mean Sheffield FC. I never discredited them. They are not the world's first football club to have the credit in the first place. That's a fact. And by the way I love the Sheffield FC story. Nothing against anyone. But 1824 is the birth of the world's first football club. Not 1857. And yes the English football league is the first one. But guess what it was created by a Scot.😁
@@hikerwoody182 yes i would say so. Although i think there is a big argument with Crystal Palace, who claim they are a continuation of the original club from 1861. I never liked the amateur v professional being a dividing line. But that's the beauty of this game. Get the debate going. Loving it.
sco V ENG 115 PLAYED w 41 DRAWN W48 26 goals171 GOALS 195 NOT AS BIG A GULF BETWEEN THEM AS A LOT OF PEOPLE THINK THERE IS. SCOTLAND HAD, THE POLICY OF NOT PICKING SCOTS WHO; WERE PLAYING FOR ENGLISH CLUBS.
As an Englishman I fully agree with you. Whatever the World Rankings might tell us, in footballing terms, England and Scotland are still very much evenly matched, I really mean that. Matches between the two show this and I don't think its because the Scots necessarily raise their game against the English. Ability wise, there is little to choose between us.
@@teeteringonthebrink.305 THANKS. YOU ARE THE FIRST TO REACT. I GAVE UP POSTING THIS ON FOOTBALL GROUPS LAST YEAR AS THEY WERE DECLINED. THIS IS MY THIRD ATTEMPT ON YOU TUBE, I REALISE THAT ON YOU TUBE THERE ARE SO MANY THINGS TO BROWSE OR COMMENT ON IT'S JUST POT LUCK. I AM SO BLESSED TO BE BRITISH. LIKE MOST OF US IN THE UK; MY WIFE AND I HAVE A LOT OF ENGLISH BORN RELATIVES AND FRIENDS: ALSO SCOTTISH BORN OF ENGLISH PARENTS. WHEN I MEET ENGLISH PEOPLE ON HOLIDAYS ETC SOME WILL SAY THAT THE SCOTS WILL NOT SUPPORT ENGLAND AS WE LOVE TO SEE THEM LOSE. THAT'S NOT TRUE. WE SUPPORT THEM AT CLUB LEVEL AND AT EVERY SPORT. AT WAR WE WILL ALWAYS BE ONE. THE REAL REASON IS THAT IS THAT SOME OF THE FOOTBALL PUNDITS, COMMENTATORS AND PRESS TALK AND SPECULATE ABOUT ENGLAND AND WHO THEY MIGHT MEET LATER IN THE TOURNAMENTS BEFORE THE DRAW AND FIXTURES ARE MADE. WHEN COMMENTATING ON GAMES BETWEEN NON ENGLISH TEAMS OR COUNTRIES THEY CAN'T STOP TALKING ABOUT ENGLISH FOOTBALL. THIS USUALLY HAPPENS WHEN THE PLAYERS DO SOMETHING DIFFERENT, THEY SAY OH! JOE BLOGS DID THAT 2YRS AGO IN THE THE LEAGUE GAME AT ? AGAINST ? THERE'S ANOTHER WHO DID THIS JUST LAST WEEK. SOME OF THE ENGLISH PLAYERS WHO WERE PLAYING WITH SCOTTISH CLUBS HAVE SAID THAT THEY UNDERSTAND WHY SCOTS GET ANNOYED. PS I HAVE BEEN SURPRISED AT THE AMOUNT OF ENGLISH PEOPLE IN SCOTLAND WHO HAVE NO CONNECTIONS BUT ARE FANATICAL S N.P.
@@bobbygillespie7687 I read your reply and again, I agree with you. I hear it happening all the time and can understand the frustration and annoyance to people north of the border. As far as the BBC are seemingly concerned, it's England first and then the other British nations second. Okay, England might have the greater land mass (probably) and certainly the greater populace but we are just one quarter of the British Isles yet receive more than our quota. Of course it isn't just pundits and commentators at the beeb it's also, as you say, other media outlets as well. I'm not sure they actually do it deliberately but more out of ignorance which is still no excuse. A few months ago I was in discussion (on youtube) with a person from from the U.S. about music and of all the many great artists and songs that have come out of both the U.S. and Britain as regards Rock and Pop. It was all very mutual but he did keep saying English when he meant British. He could not see that the two were different so I had to gently correct him on the issue. Among the list of 'English' artists he admired were Van Morrison and Tom Jones. I told him that neither were English but Irish and Welsh respectively. It took about three efforts but I believe he got it in the end and it was all done very amicably. I think we can forgive our cousins from across the pond but ignorance over here - no excuse. By the way, I saw your reply yesterday evening but couldn't respond then as I was in the process of getting ready to go to a concert here in my home town. The tribute band to Fleetwood Mac - Rumours of...great night. Stay safe.
@@boristheslav9414 calcium fiorentina?? That as close to a claim of starting football as the Greeks and Chinese who kicked human heads about for fun. Nothing like football.
Tell it to all the English. See, you did not invent football. Just because you Capitalised it and made it into professional.leagues does not mean you invented the game. I was always going by that football found in Stirling Castle dated about 400 years before formation of English Football Leagues as proof of where origin of Football was from by I accept if that guy says the game was played in China etc b4 but certainly the truth about British football is the game was played long before in Scotland
Football was not invented in China. They had a sport or pastime where a 'ball' or some object was kicked around to each other, but it didn't resemble anything that could be called a football game. Just like any hand sized ball hit with a bat is not necessarily cricket. As for the football found in Stirling Castle - yes, it is indeed the oldest surviving football but we must place emphasis on the word 'surviving.'
Scotland’s contribution to the development of international football should not be overlooked however the other claims made in the video about Scotland’s contribution towards the development of association football are way off the mark I am afraid. A book could be written to unravel the Scottish spin however I think all that needs to be said is that the Edinburgh football club never played football as we know it nor was actually a proper club. Sheffield FC is recognised as the first proper and oldest football club in the world. It’s FIFA merit award also recognises its massive contribution to the development of the game we now call Association football. Less Scottish spin please and more facts about the origins of the game will be welcome in future.
I might have this wrong but I heard or read somewhere that one piece of clothing most associated with the Scots, the kilt, was originally worn by the English or, to be more specific, by 'Anglo-Saxon' tribes.
Yes and there were games like football that date back to before the time of Christ in many different cultures, they are discussing the origins of modern football and the game we play today. No one really knows who first invented the ancient game and many cultures claim to be responsible, but I think it all comes down to some kind of human nature to want to make sport of kicking a ball past a goal line of some sort, the rules set, approach, and score keeping will vary but it most be some hardwired thing since it seems almost every ancient culture has some kind of game like it.
Everything about football tpdays scottish, or invented in Scotland. D9 a wee bit of research. Goals, rules, Everything. Yous did invent a game where everyone in the village chased a ball about with no end goal though 👏🏻 bravo 👏🏻
@@arejaycee5484 Correct in England it was all about pass & rush as in kick & run after the ball more like Rugby Union now. In Scotland it's always been a working class game in England at first it was only played in Public Schools & Universitys where in Scotland it's was factory workers , mill workers & the likes that took up the game that's why the different styles developed in both Scotland & England The Scottish version in the end becoming the more popular over time. But the rules we use today are largely The Cambridge rules but not entirely.
@@davidrowan3853 That game is more like Rugby Union & they have a version in Gorgina as in the former Soviet state aswell that game in Gorgina is band now because there was far to many people dieing from playing it this is why Rugby Union is so popular in Gorgina now because of it's similarity to Lelo. I am a fan of both Football & Rugby Union. Keep Safe.

And yes the English football league is the first one. But guess what it was created by a Scot.😁
@@graemebrown2033 so are Notts County the oldest pro club still in existence? I know Wrexham are 3rd
@@hikerwoody182 yes i would say so. Although i think there is a big argument with Crystal Palace, who claim they are a continuation of the original club from 1861.
I never liked the amateur v professional being a dividing line. But that's the beauty of this game. Get the debate going. Loving it.

NOT AS BIG A GULF BETWEEN THEM AS A
LOT OF PEOPLE THINK THERE IS. SCOTLAND HAD, THE
POLICY OF NOT PICKING SCOTS WHO; WERE PLAYING FOR ENGLISH CLUBS.
As an Englishman I fully agree with you. Whatever the World Rankings might tell us, in footballing terms, England and Scotland are still very much evenly matched, I really mean that. Matches between the two show this and I don't think its because the Scots necessarily raise their game against the English. Ability wise, there is little to choose between us.
@@teeteringonthebrink.305 THANKS. YOU ARE THE FIRST TO REACT.
I GAVE UP POSTING THIS ON FOOTBALL GROUPS LAST YEAR AS THEY WERE DECLINED.
THIS IS MY THIRD ATTEMPT ON YOU TUBE,
I REALISE THAT ON YOU TUBE THERE ARE SO MANY THINGS TO BROWSE OR COMMENT ON IT'S JUST POT LUCK.
I AM SO BLESSED TO BE BRITISH.
LIKE MOST OF US IN THE UK; MY WIFE AND I HAVE A
LOT OF ENGLISH BORN RELATIVES AND FRIENDS: ALSO SCOTTISH BORN OF ENGLISH PARENTS.
WHEN I MEET ENGLISH PEOPLE ON HOLIDAYS ETC
SOME WILL SAY THAT THE SCOTS WILL NOT SUPPORT ENGLAND AS WE LOVE TO SEE THEM LOSE.
THAT'S NOT TRUE.
WE SUPPORT THEM AT CLUB LEVEL AND AT EVERY SPORT. AT WAR WE WILL ALWAYS BE ONE.
THE REAL REASON IS THAT IS THAT SOME OF THE FOOTBALL PUNDITS, COMMENTATORS AND PRESS TALK AND SPECULATE ABOUT ENGLAND AND WHO THEY MIGHT MEET LATER IN THE TOURNAMENTS BEFORE THE DRAW AND FIXTURES ARE MADE.
WHEN COMMENTATING ON GAMES BETWEEN NON ENGLISH TEAMS OR COUNTRIES THEY CAN'T STOP TALKING ABOUT ENGLISH FOOTBALL.
THIS USUALLY HAPPENS WHEN THE PLAYERS DO SOMETHING DIFFERENT, THEY SAY OH! JOE BLOGS DID THAT 2YRS AGO IN THE THE LEAGUE GAME AT ? AGAINST ?
THERE'S ANOTHER WHO DID THIS JUST LAST WEEK.
SOME OF THE ENGLISH PLAYERS WHO WERE PLAYING WITH SCOTTISH CLUBS HAVE SAID THAT THEY UNDERSTAND WHY SCOTS GET ANNOYED.
PS I HAVE BEEN SURPRISED AT THE AMOUNT OF ENGLISH PEOPLE IN SCOTLAND WHO HAVE NO CONNECTIONS BUT ARE
FANATICAL S N.P.
@@bobbygillespie7687 I read your reply and again, I agree with you. I hear it happening all the time and can understand the frustration and annoyance to people north of the border. As far as the BBC are seemingly concerned, it's England first and then the other British nations second. Okay, England might have the greater land mass (probably) and certainly the greater populace but we are just one quarter of the British Isles yet receive more than our quota. Of course it isn't just pundits and commentators at the beeb it's also, as you say, other media outlets as well. I'm not sure they actually do it deliberately but more out of ignorance which is still no excuse.
A few months ago I was in discussion (on youtube) with a person from from the U.S. about music and of all the many great artists and songs that have come out of both the U.S. and Britain as regards Rock and Pop. It was all very mutual but he did keep saying English when he meant British. He could not see that the two were different so I had to gently correct him on the issue. Among the list of 'English' artists he admired were Van Morrison and Tom Jones. I told him that neither were English but Irish and Welsh respectively. It took about three efforts but I believe he got it in the end and it was all done very amicably.
I think we can forgive our cousins from across the pond but ignorance over here - no excuse.
By the way, I saw your reply yesterday evening but couldn't respond then as I was in the process of getting ready to go to a concert here in my home town. The tribute band to Fleetwood Mac - Rumours of...great night. Stay safe.
Queens Park who plays at Hampden Park is the only ever Scottish team to play in the English FA Cup just another random history fact
There's more than QP buddy. Mon on tour. We'll tell you all about it 👍
QUEENS PARK AND RANGERS ARE THE ONLY ONES I CAN REMEMBER READING ABOUT.
I THINK THERE WAS ANOTHER 6???? VALE OF LEVEN?? RENTON??.
Actually I’m sure Rangers got to the quarter or semi final of the FA cup one year and were knocked out by the eventual winners
New Vid :) 👍🏽
Greatest story you've never told? You're a Rangers fan? 😂😂😂
Joking pal... keep up the good work 😎👍
Italy invented football. It was invented in Florence. Calcio 🇮🇹⚽️
Nope
@@davidrowan3853 Calcio started in Italy #FACT Scotland just trying to steal Italy’s thunder!
@@boristheslav9414 what year?
@@boristheslav9414 calcium fiorentina?? That as close to a claim of starting football as the Greeks and Chinese who kicked human heads about for fun. Nothing like football.
That claim is a joke
New sub from me
Tell it to all the English. See, you did not invent football. Just because you Capitalised it and made it into professional.leagues does not mean you invented the game. I was always going by that football found in Stirling Castle dated about 400 years before formation of English Football Leagues as proof of where origin of Football was from by I accept if that guy says the game was played in China etc b4 but certainly the truth about British football is the game was played long before in Scotland
Football was not invented in China. They had a sport or pastime where a 'ball' or some object was kicked around to each other, but it didn't resemble anything that could be called a football game. Just like any hand sized ball hit with a bat is not necessarily cricket. As for the football found in Stirling Castle - yes, it is indeed the oldest surviving football but we must place emphasis on the word 'surviving.'
"A memorial to football clubs that have died"
*angry bear noises*
Yawn
Scotland’s contribution to the development of international football should not be overlooked however the other claims made in the video about Scotland’s contribution towards the development of association football are way off the mark I am afraid. A book could be written to unravel the Scottish spin however I think all that needs to be said is that the Edinburgh football club never played football as we know it nor was actually a proper club. Sheffield FC is recognised as the first proper and oldest football club in the world. It’s FIFA merit award also recognises its massive contribution to the development of the game we now call Association football. Less Scottish spin please and more facts about the origins of the game will be welcome in future.
It was England
Give yourself a pat on the back not lol.
You would have thought the english never invented a single thing
I might have this wrong but I heard or read somewhere that one piece of clothing most associated with the Scots, the kilt, was originally worn by the English or, to be more specific, by 'Anglo-Saxon' tribes.

Hello am I first
1314 king Edward II king of England bans football in England 100 years before the Scots did learn your history
Yes and there were games like football that date back to before the time of Christ in many different cultures, they are discussing the origins of modern football and the game we play today. No one really knows who first invented the ancient game and many cultures claim to be responsible, but I think it all comes down to some kind of human nature to want to make sport of kicking a ball past a goal line of some sort, the rules set, approach, and score keeping will vary but it most be some hardwired thing since it seems almost every ancient culture has some kind of game like it.
myth - england has 10 times the population of scotland so have always been better. scotland led england in the head to head for over a century.
They never TOOK everything from you (Scotland). William McGregor, if anything gave it. Stop whining.

Passing Game Invented. .....Scotland
Everything about football tpdays scottish, or invented in Scotland. D9 a wee bit of research. Goals, rules, Everything. Yous did invent a game where everyone in the village chased a ball about with no end goal though 👏🏻 bravo 👏🏻
@@arejaycee5484
Correct in England it was all about pass & rush as in kick & run after the ball more like Rugby Union now.
In Scotland it's always been a working class game in England at first it was only played in
Public Schools & Universitys where in Scotland it's was factory workers , mill workers & the likes that took up the game that's why the different styles developed in both Scotland & England The Scottish version in the end becoming the more popular over time.
But the rules we use today are largely The Cambridge rules but not entirely.
@@davidrowan3853
That game is more like Rugby Union & they have a version in Gorgina as in the former Soviet state aswell that game in Gorgina is band now because there was far to many people dieing from playing it this is why Rugby Union is so popular in Gorgina now because of it's similarity to Lelo.
I am a fan of both Football &
Rugby Union.
Keep Safe.
Nick Muller.....none so ignorant as those who refuse to learn.
Why is there English people on the tour that's ridiculous
Delete your comment fool.
Because they want to learn about the origins of the modern game. Don't think we have anything like these old abandoned stadiums in England.
@@mk1aquatic739 I wonder why cause The English have way over 600 teams
Typical scots having to be different to England. Every part of the game and rules including fixtures invented, yeah right. Dont believe any of it
