Renfrewshire Derbie Saint Mirren VS Greenock Morton There is a strong rivalry's just between the two towns out with football but football brings it to the the boile with Saint Mirren being in The Premier at the moment & Morton being in the Championship they at the moment only play each other in The Renfrewshire Cup a pre - Season game I would suggest you cover this one next as it the most fierce one you have not covered yet in Scottish senior football. New Firm Derbie Aberdeen VS Dundee United. Highland Derbie Inverness Caledonian Thistle VS Ross County. Fife derbies Dunfermline Athletic VS Raith Rovers East Fife VS Cowdenbeath The Angus derbies between Arbroath, Forfar Athletic, Brechin City & Montrose. The problem in Scotland is that at this time a lot of local rivalrys dont take place because clubs are in different divisions personally dont think this helps Scottish football at all.. There is The North Lanarkshire rivalry between Motherwell , Airdrieonians, Albion Rovers but they tend to only happen when they get drawn together in the Cups. This Pandemic is certainly playing havoc with your content but all you can do Sam is try. Keep up the good work.
@@legandrydirk You could also though in The Greater Glasgow derbie then Pollok VS Arthurlie ( Barrhead ) in that case was trying to keep my suggestions from the Premier to League 2 so not to overwhelm Sam with suggestions. But good suggestion.
That big rock is called Ailsa Craig . It's always a great view over to the mountains on the isle of Arran and Ailsa Craig on a clear day. I always feel like I'm home when I see those two things from Ayrshire.
Another excellent presentation !! The amazing stand alone Island is famous and is called Ailsa Craig. It is the only place in the world that they use the granite to make Curling Stones for the Winter Olympics. You could have mentioned that Ayshire is the birthplace of the Poet and Songwriter Robert Burns.
Wow thank you! That's the kind of videos I want to make. Football but mixed with history, culture and geography. I would love to make videos in Macedonia one day! I want to visit Ohrid. Also I've been to thessaloniki in greece so very close to your country
Wonderful video . I’m a born and raised Canadian . My Grandfather was born and raised in Kilmarnock . He moved to Canada in the 1920s . I remember his stories about Football in Kilmarnock . Thank you for a wonderful tribute to his part of the world .
Well done for covering clubs that don't get much attention. The loyalty of the fans is none the less for their smaller numbers! Great to get some local colour thrown in for free!
Another great post, love coast, history , countryside and football , especially as I don't know to much about Scottish Footy away from the old firm,all this and ITFC won tonight 💙
Thanks for this comment. Glad you enjoyed the video. Yeah some big scores in the betfred cup overnight. It's a shame fans aren't allowed back in at that level yet!
A good derby in Ayrshire to do would be Auchinleck Talbot vs Cumnock Juniors. They’re both junior teams but the derby is probably one of the fiercest rivalries in Scotland. The two villages/towns (whatever they’re classed as) pretty much go into shutdown on derby day and the games usually have great attendances! Great vid from a Killie fan!
Thanks for the tip! Yeah I'm planning that video with those two to come out this week. Do you have any other facts about those two teams? I believe Auchinleck have pulled out of the league. Would love to know your thoughts on this as a fan!
@@FootyAdventures I’m not too clued in on facts for a lot of teams at junior level, I think Talbot are the most successful junior team in Scotland, in terms of junior Scottish cup wins (13 times I think) This is a link to an active forum for junior football in Scotland, maybe posting a thread on this asking for facts/info on the two teams could be a good source of information www.pieandbovril.com/forum/index.php?/forum/22-junior-football/.
Great video Sam 👍 we've got old scottish connections at millwall with the dockers in the early 1900's.....I'm half scottish myself so love your great videos 👍👍 you're always welcome down at millwall sam🦁👍🦁👍
Hi Allan, thanks so much. Really happy you're liking the videos! I'd love to get down to milwall eventually. The only thing stopping me at the moment is all the restrictions. Once things are back to normal, I'm there!
Great video., however not even scratching the surface when it comes to beautiful Scottish counties.. take a drive from Glasgow to Fort William and be blown away..
Yeah Fort William is high on my list of places to visit! I love Ayrshire by the sea. Was lovely on a sunny day but yeah I'm sure there's places that are just as nice! Cheers for watching :)
Great video from an ayrshire man who left this lovely place forty three years ago but it is still home. Well done mate have made me smile this morning 😊🏴
@@FootyAdventures yes you have brought back great memories, thanks for your reply. In the seventies I played football for Ayr Boswell boys club then played for Ayr United boys under 18s then progress to Junior football with Annbank juniors then onto Darvel Juniors, then at 21yrs old left Ayr and moved to London. Thanks for bringing back all those memories 👍
You do a great job with these videos Sam, it was my housemate that recommended you and I wasn't disappointed because I love footy trivia. Hope you will be covering my team Stranraer and their Dumfries rivals Queen of the South (The only team quoted in the Bible) at some juncture.
The castle you went to is Dunure Castle and is amazing on a sunny day. I asked the guy in the club shop at Ayr if I could have a look around and he gave permission and took me around to my surprise. Ayr is a decent club, would hope to see them in the premiership one day. Really good videos, I enjoy the effort and the content. You should do Clydeside teams e.g, Clydebank, Yoker, Dumbarton and Morton across the Clyde. Dumbarton is a special one as they have won the Scottish Cup locates beside the Rock also very historic 😃👍 shoutout to me if you do it haha! Cheers mate
Used to go to rugby park regularly in the late 60s up to around 1977 as a teenager,would drive down to troon from Glasgow have lunch at a cafe and back to Kilmarnock for the game.the ground was a traditional oval shaped terracing on 3 sides and the present main stand was the only seats,it was quite new then built around 1964.was at Ayr a few times as well and it hasn't changed much
Enjoyed the video. First time on the channel. You were so close to the ‘electric brae’. Where, when driving you have to accelerate downhill and freewheel uphill. (Natural optical illusion). There is no better atmosphere than a crowded out Somerset Road End. Way more enjoyable than an all-seater stadium.
Another great video mate. I have to say I have followed my team Dundee (even when they are rubbish - which is often) to Killie just for their half time pies which are the best in the world. lol.
Hey man im fae killie when i was a wee guy where hotel is now was just grass and you could walk down most days and watch the boys training was good too see young team playing a kick about
Enjoyed this pal! Grew up in England but family from North Ayrshire, recognised some of the islands as where my family stay. Shame you had to go to Rugby Park but suppose the rest of the video was worth it ;)
Hi Sam, been following your channel for a little while. Where you were at the start of the video is where I work, Turnberry. The lighthouse is built on top of the castle remains. There are bits n bobs of the castle walls still visible. Robert Burns' cottage is not far from the road you travelled on coming from Turnberry to Ayr. Great video. Hopefully when the pandemic is over we can meet up at an Ayr game mate. Take care.
Oh and the Rock/Island you can see in the distance. That is the Alisa Craig. A volcanic plug. The granite it’s made from is very rare, think they call it white granite & 80% of the worlds curling stones were blasted off the rock on the other side, it had a working mine. If you take a boat trip around the opposite side from where you can see, the top half is almost completely flat. There was, & maybe still is (post pandemic), a small boat that does tours around the rock setting sail from Gibran harbour, which is about 5 miles south of the beech you stood on. Oh & the rock is approx 11 miles from the coastline. All information I’ve learned over the years to inform mainly American golfing tourists as I carry their bags around the golf course. Golf course facts - The complex has 3 courses & a golf academy. The most famous course is the Alisa Championship Course (named after said rock) which has hosted 4 Open Championships. 1977 - Winner: Tom Watson - famous Dual In The Sun between said winner & Jack Nicklaus. 1986 - Winner: Greg Norman. 1994 - Winner: Nick Price. 2009 - Winner: Stewart Cink - famous as being the tournament where previous winner Tom Watson, at the age of 59, lost to Cink in a sudden death playoff. The resort is now owned by current President of The United States, Donald Trump, who purchased it back in 2014. It has since undergone huge improvements both on course & in hotel & is currently ranked number 1 golf course in the U.K. & in my opinion, Europe.
The two sides used to meet annually for the Ayrshire Cup until the Ayrshire FA was disbanded. Killie, being the then holders, “kept” the trophy, listed on their assets (~£400k), and have refused repeated calls to reinstate the fixture. One of the biggest disgraces in Scottish football.
I seen that own goal by Lindelöf ,,first game and scotland game my nephew seen ,,,,always welcome at somerset park home of the only team in ayrshire :)
Was at the derby last night, im a killie fan and I would say that both teams played well, but then killie got the pen on the last minute and we won! CMON KILLIE KTID
I'm guessing you went up the coastal road from near Girvan? Used to stay that way myself. My last memory of these two teams was the Scottish League Cup semi. The year Killie won it.
yeah was such a surprise and much more nice than the killie hibs final didnt expect killie to beat celtic was a pleasant surprise was a shame that liam kellys dad died at the end of the game
Since your reviewing Derby’s, there’s a very small one, it’s Girvan F.C vs Stranraer , as I said it’s tiny but still a derby type thing Girvan is like 25 minuets or so down from Ayr and stanraer is down from girvan
Great video mate! Subbed! Love your appreciation for nature, history and footie! Hope you get to watch killie live at some point when this covid pish is over, we are playing really well just now. And you can enjoy our pies, obviously when your diet is over, lol!
@@FootyAdventures Oh and forgot to say, if you want some serious beauty spots in Scotland, head to Pitlochry in Perthshire, or my fave, the Isle of Arran. You'll fall in love with the places, mate, seriously! Take it easy bro!
you could go have a look at some junior or now non league darby's and grounds. some fantastic small grounds with great character and history. a lot of them in the west of scotland and mite be more accommodating to let you in. also another great darby in ayrshire auchinleck v cumnorck can be like a miny old firm
Another fun ayr united fact for you, in may of 1928 we were one of (if not the only) club team to play an international full strength team, being Sweden national team away from home and of which we won 3-1.
That would have been Roy the stadium manager at Ayr Due to covid shame u were not allowed in The Somerset Hub is being built within the next 18months On the main car park A New club shop offices and a social club good video
@@FootyAdventures just a few back stories on Fife clubs for you , Raith went on a club tour abroad in the 1920,s by boat and ended up getting shipwrecked they were saved by the Third Lanark teams ship coming home from a tour of America, also i believe Raith are the only team to have a rhyming name to their ground in UK. Dunfermline were an up and down club until Jock Stein took over as manager in 1960 , he led them to a Scottish cup win in 1961 and built a foundation for the rest of the decade including 42 games in Europe and another Scottish cup victory in 1968 . Cowdenbeath were promoted from the old second division in 1938/39 but due to the outbreak of WW2 in the September of 1939 only played 5 league games in the 1939/40 season and when football returned officially from 1945/46 season they found they had been demoted back to second division , it took another 24 years to win promotion but they only lasted a season in the first division of 1970/71. East Fife have won three Scottish League cups and are the only second division side to have won the Scottish cup although Hibs did win as a second tier club as well but not as a second division side, East Fife took an incredible 11 games to win the cup in 1938 , including a final replay against Kilmarnock and 3 semi final games to see off St Bernards , bet they were dog tired !!
Ayr used to be such a nice town when I was growing up in the 80's & 90's but unfortunately like a lot of seaside towns up and down The U.K it's now very rundown from what it was like back then it used to be so much nicer than it is now personally pefer Largs now myself. Before I moved to Hamilton I was only 45 minutes away from Ayr on the train so used to go there lots in my Childhood. Keep Safe.
Unfortunate that, due to the present COVID-19 restrictions you couldn't see round Somerset Park - have shown a few folk around in recent years whilst volunteering at the club, if circumstances allowed. The present situation just doesn't make such visits possible. Hopefully in the future circumstances will change and you can get a tour at some time.
Not as of yet in Northern Ireland the league dates run similarly to the rest of the UK starts around August time and finishes with the Cup final in Juneish (obviously disrupted with covid) where they did let some fans allowed in. Whereas the league season in the Republic of Ireland normally runs between March and November but what they are doing now as covid postponed the league is similar in England is to cram the remainder of the season into 2/3 games a week to finish it. Hopefully things will change between now and start of next season which starts around March time
@@michaelmccrossan4298 Such a shame, I'd love to come over for some games! Even to make some videos like I do here where I look around the clubs etc would be great.
@@FootyAdventures absolutely! Domestic football isn't covered as well as it could here. Most football shown here is in England (which I get where a lot of people here would support an English team and money is there). Any coverage or education for domestic football here is more than welcome!
I’m a Killie fan and this is the biggest and best derby in Scotland. However if you want the 1 with the best scenery, Inverness-Ross County would blow Ayrshire out of the water. There will be a few in the Highland League as well that will have stunning scenery
That’s my village....Been following you for a while....when were you in Dunure mate? Shared your great page on the Ayr United Facebook page matey. Look out for the Ayr score tonight as the season kicks off
Footy Adventures shame I’d have made you a cuppa had I known! Look forward to the new video and your future adventures. Jealous....looks like you are really enjoying it.
Should go visit boness and look at there pitch and blackness castle where Outlander is filmed as well used to get a lot of tourists from China and so on. Also do linlithgow rose and there town
Maybe should look into stuff a bit more b4 talking about it. Ailsa craig. Could of mentioned by name and connection to curling stones. Hotel at rugby park yes was origional training ground. Just a suggestion to look up areas a bit more b4 broadcast as I did find it good bust that little e tra knowledge could of made a big difference. Was still a good watch 👍
@@FootyAdventures no problem m8 ur a legend really enjoy your videos,can see whats going on around the leagues you need to go to somerset at the killie end the atmosphere is nothing to rugby park
Are there any other derbies I should look into next?
Renfrewshire Derbie
Saint Mirren VS Greenock Morton
There is a strong rivalry's just between the two towns out with football but football brings it to the
the boile with Saint Mirren being in The Premier at the moment & Morton being in the Championship they at the moment only play each other in The Renfrewshire Cup a pre - Season game I would suggest you cover this one next as it the most fierce one you have not covered yet in Scottish senior football.
New Firm Derbie
Aberdeen VS Dundee United.
Highland Derbie
Inverness Caledonian Thistle
VS Ross County.
Fife derbies
Dunfermline Athletic VS Raith Rovers
East Fife VS Cowdenbeath
The Angus derbies
between Arbroath, Forfar Athletic,
Brechin City & Montrose.
The problem in Scotland is that at this time a lot of local rivalrys dont take place because clubs are in different divisions personally dont think this helps Scottish football at all..
There is The North Lanarkshire rivalry between Motherwell , Airdrieonians, Albion Rovers
but they tend to only happen when they get drawn together in the Cups.
This Pandemic is certainly playing havoc with your content but all you can do Sam is try.
Keep up the good work.
Fife derby Dunfermline Raith Rovers
And maybe Beith V Kilbirnie in north Ayrshire since we are all technically senior clubs now
@@alanfox691 love this thanks!
@@legandrydirk love the suggestion! 🎬 soon!
@@legandrydirk
You could also though in
The Greater Glasgow derbie then
Pollok VS Arthurlie ( Barrhead )
in that case was trying to keep my suggestions from the Premier to League 2 so not to overwhelm Sam with suggestions.
But good suggestion.
You did Ayrshire proud with this footage 👍🏻
Thank you! 😎
Well done for showing off both clubs, im a killie fan and glad someone is promoting this derby
im an ayr fan and still believe ayrshire derby is next big derby

@@FootyAdventures just a few back stories on Fife clubs for you , Raith went on a club tour abroad in the 1920,s by boat and ended up getting shipwrecked they were saved by the Third Lanark teams ship coming home from a tour of America, also i believe Raith are the only team to have a rhyming name to their ground in UK. Dunfermline were an up and down club until Jock Stein took over as manager in 1960 , he led them to a Scottish cup win in 1961 and built a foundation for the rest of the decade including 42 games in Europe and another Scottish cup victory in 1968 . Cowdenbeath were promoted from the old second division in 1938/39 but due to the outbreak of WW2 in the September of 1939 only played 5 league games in the 1939/40 season and when football returned officially from 1945/46 season they found they had been demoted back to second division , it took another 24 years to win promotion but they only lasted a season in the first division of 1970/71. East Fife have won three Scottish League cups and are the only second division side to have won the Scottish cup although Hibs did win as a second tier club as well but not as a second division side, East Fife took an incredible 11 games to win the cup in 1938 , including a final replay against Kilmarnock and 3 semi final games to see off St Bernards , bet they were dog tired !!
@@roderickscott7429 some great facts in there! When I go to fife I'll be using a few of these!
That island is called tinyhoolish. Jack n victor are bared from the pub there
You should look up Fraserburgh v Peterhead . That was a great one in the highland league
I was on holiday in ayrshire this year, went into ayr and killie, beautiful county, went to where outlander was filmed as well!!!
Ayr used to be such a nice town when I was growing up in the 80's & 90's but unfortunately like a lot of seaside towns up and down The U.K it's now very rundown from what it was like back then it used to be so much nicer than it is now personally pefer Largs now myself.
Before I moved to Hamilton I was only 45 minutes away from Ayr on the train so used to go there lots in my Childhood.
Keep Safe.
@@alanfox691 yeah, its such a shame when you look at what the rest of the area has to offer
Such a nice part of Scotland! Thanks for watching
That's where I live dunure
@@scottirvine121 its a beautiful little village
yes it was a grass training area , my house looked onto it , used to watch Ally Mcoist and co training from my kitchen whilst doing the dishes lol ,
Unfortunate that, due to the present COVID-19 restrictions you couldn't see round Somerset Park - have shown a few folk around in recent years whilst volunteering at the club, if circumstances allowed. The present situation just doesn't make such visits possible. Hopefully in the future circumstances will change and you can get a tour at some time.
Yeah I hope so. Thanks for watching!
When you do St Johnstone the club shop is always shut so you have to go to campus sports which is in the town of Perth
You should make a video about the Irish / Northern Irish clubs. Clubs over here don't get enough publicity so it would be nice to get some attention
Looking into that funnily enough! Some big clubs I want to see over there. I have noticed the league restarts soon... Are fans allowed in at all?
Not as of yet in Northern Ireland the league dates run similarly to the rest of the UK starts around August time and finishes with the Cup final in Juneish (obviously disrupted with covid) where they did let some fans allowed in.
Whereas the league season in the Republic of Ireland normally runs between March and November but what they are doing now as covid postponed the league is similar in England is to cram the remainder of the season into 2/3 games a week to finish it. Hopefully things will change between now and start of next season which starts around March time
Good time to come over as well with dundalk qualifying for the europa league which is a big achievement for an Irish side
@@michaelmccrossan4298 Such a shame, I'd love to come over for some games! Even to make some videos like I do here where I look around the clubs etc would be great.
@@FootyAdventures absolutely! Domestic football isn't covered as well as it could here. Most football shown here is in England (which I get where a lot of people here would support an English team and money is there). Any coverage or education for domestic football here is more than welcome!
Good vid. keep it up and you`ll have a hundred thousand followers soon enough
That would be unreal!
I’m a Killie fan and this is the biggest and best derby in Scotland.
However if you want the 1 with the best scenery, Inverness-Ross County would blow Ayrshire out of the water. There will be a few in the Highland League as well that will have stunning scenery
That’s my village....Been following you for a while....when were you in Dunure mate? Shared your great page on the Ayr United Facebook page matey. Look out for the Ayr score tonight as the season kicks off
Ah nice thanks so much for sharing! I was filming at Albion rovers today where Ayr are playing... video tomorrow! I was in dunure yesterday 😊😎
Footy Adventures shame I’d have made you a cuppa had I known! Look forward to the new video and your future adventures. Jealous....looks like you are really enjoying it.
@@scottirvine121 thanks Scott! Cuppa would've been great. New video coming today!
Brilliant video, from a Killie fan. Doing the coast justice
Is that maidens and Turnberry at the start
Beautiful country 🏴🏴🏴
Should go visit boness and look at there pitch and blackness castle where Outlander is filmed as well used to get a lot of tourists from China and so on. Also do linlithgow rose and there town
Great video man. What camera do you use? The footage is incredible.
Thanks so much! Mainly GoPro Hero 7 :)
What an unfriendly Ayr United club is! :)
Love the FM reference!
Knew you'd love thay!
*that
100th like and another brilliant video 🔥🔥
Thanks again dan!
I was at the castle yesterday
How far apart are the grounds?
Maybe should look into stuff a bit more b4 talking about it. Ailsa craig. Could of mentioned by name and connection to curling stones. Hotel at rugby park yes was origional training ground. Just a suggestion to look up areas a bit more b4 broadcast as I did find it good bust that little e tra knowledge could of made a big difference. Was still a good watch 👍
woaa Scotland has some nice views there!
Yeah amazing isnt it!
Footy Adventures absolutely 👏🏽 thanks for keep putting out great contents for us man!
Sir Alex Ferguson played for Ayr United in 1973/74 season also former Scotland manager Ally McClould managed them
You never commented on the Electric Brae near Dunker......
should go to Greenock Mortons stadium (Cappilow)
Yeah definitely. Going there soon!
Is that paddy’s milestone paddy was a big Irish giant that threw a big rock from Ireland and nearly hit Scotland
Somerset is one of the best away days in Scotland
Good to know. Hope to see a game there soon!
