Alfie should really just upload all his historical documentaries to a podcast streaming site as well so he can make more profit than on demonetized videos

Rapid Wien is the club that made me love football. I studied abroad in Vienna, and their supporters were the kindest people I've ever met. They value hard work and effort, and they're the reason I love this game.

Teams from the last season of the East German highest league. Where are they now? I saw someone suggest this on an earlier video, and thought this was a good idea.

Historical Fun Fact: Because the DFB was open to ALL german football clubs, foreign clubs competing for the german championship in the early years were a thing, as long as they were "german". The first runner up for the german championship in 1903 was the Deutsche Fußball-Club Prag (German Football-Club Prague). The club was founded by german jews who lived in Prague, which was a part of Austria-Hungary, back then.

Not the first time something Austrian became the champion of Germany...

There was also a team from current Romania that became Hungarian champions in 1944. Nagyvarad that was part of Hungary, currently Oradea in Romania

I'm a simple man, I see a HITC Sevens documentary style video made by Alfie, I click.

Suggestion: Brazil XI that play domestically in Brazil

Nice video, as an Austrian I love videos about my coutries history 👍👍 Thanks man, keep it up

Day 8: Final East German 1st League teams, where are they now?

Multiple North Macedonian clubs have played in the Bulgarian league. Shkendija came second once.

I always look forward to docs like these.

Me an Austrian who didn't know this: Yeeeeeah!! Me when I see why: oooooo..

Great video and thanks for looking into it! It might be worth mentioning that Rapid critically discussed its role in the nazi era. It was the first Austrian Bundesliga club to make a study with historians and the DÖW (Documentation Centre of Austrian Resistance) called "Grün-weiß unterm Hakenkreuz (Green-white under the swastika). Kind regards, a Rapid fan

Another amazing video love the documentaries like this one especially

This was a superb effort, very educational and entertaining. Well done, Alfie!

Another brilliant doco Alfie. Thanks and have a nice (or bearable) Sunday, all.

Thanks for the video. You are a breath of fresh air.

Thank you so much for doing a documentary team about another giant in a country like Austria Wien! It’s very interesting. Also please do a video about Ludogorets soon:)

Shock, another brilliant and interesting mini-documentary by Alfie.

Austria: Has the Strongest National Team since the 1970s HITC Sevens: A rather modest Team

Brilliant video documentary. Very good video.

Ooh Anschluss football?? I'm in! Love these videos

I watch your videos everyday, you do a great job. Best regards.

This is a brilliant video of history covered from a footballing perspective.

Nicee video m8, the Rapid stadion or called Allianz Stadion is actually just a 15min drive away from me! I live in Vienna. Much love

Always making great content my friend.

Series idea: Could you do a series looking at the 7 best players in the premier league right now. And then could you do one for any league that takes your fancy e.g Ligue 1

very interesting and enlightening to watch! the stuff at the end regarding Austria's delayed coming to grips with their torrid past was also good to see, I felt. I wonder if one day, Austria will again be a big player in world football

Love history! Kudos

Phenomenal video. It would be a tragedy if KZfaq demonetized this.

Nice video

13:35 if you look for that rapid of a comeback, check the 1954 Switzerland 5-7 Austria game, that is a game for the ages

Great video for me as an austrian it was very interesting

best place for football information

Alfie you really need to make a podcast as well

I hope this isn't demoneitsed as I'd love to hear the other WWII football documentaries!

I didn't expect this but I love this because I am a Rapid Vienna Fan

You should just upload to a podcast streaming service as well!

This was evidently watchable for sure

In this and other worlds,I am a 9th liker of this video and indeed,Rapid Vienna are one of the biggest Austrian clubs to have won a German league title during the 1930's and the respective Austrian and German Bundesligas are two of my favourite leagues daily forever in my life and every generations that we would be born,good friends!!!To good friend Alfie,in this and other worlds as well,this,similar to almost all of the footballing documentaries is the best daily forever in our respective lives and every generations that we would be born too!!!:-D

Taxirichas Fountas is such a CLASS player he deserves a BIG move

Make a vid about Atletico Teouan, the only example of a team playing out of continent in a major league

The winners of cypriot league played in the greek superleague from 1967 to 1974

There's currently an English club that plays in the Scottish leagues. Berwick Rangers. And also a team from the Republic of Ireland that plays in Scotland - Celtic.

2 min 06 the Italian team with the savoy royal emblem and the fasci emblem 😻

Suggestion: The rapid decline of Cruzeiro Esporte Clube

Hey Alfie, how about the best XI to spend their entire career at one club.

you should name this channel HITC Intellectuals

Seriously, you should start a podcast

0:24 sad wolfsburg noises

You should definitely find some other interesting youtubers and start a podcast. Would watch all of them.

Day 9. 7 signings from the championship that made an immediate impact in the premier league

i dont know how people dislike alfies videos

In this and other worlds,Austria and Germany are two of my favourite countries daily forever in my life and every generations that we would be born,good friends!!!:-D

1:54 Jack Grealish seems to be a time traveler then ps. there's an error in the description, Rapid Wien's anglicised name is Rapid Vienna. You got it right in the vid though :)

There's an error in the description though Austria and Rapid are two distinct clubs (I've been to oth clubs' games...) from Vienna

Video ideas - Top players to become mainstream/world class in their 30s. -Best coaches formerly goalkeepers in world football.

I really hope that one of the two other Second World War features you intend to do is about Dynamo Kiev's 1942 "Death Match", which is really insanely fascinating.

Day 55: 2012-2013 ande 2019-2020 Bayern Munich Combined XI

I love how he didnt mention Nürnberg at all at the start just ingoring the 2nd most german titles

Video idea: HITC Alfie, HITC Irish Guy, and HITC James make a video about football. Idk what it’d be about

Can you do South Africa XI if all players represented them

could you do a video explaining Daniel levy reign as Tottenham chairman

This better be interesting

Great Video once again Alfie! Btw I'm Austrian myself and if you need help pronouncing german names just contact me! You're pronouncing them quite well most of time. It's just sometimes a little off Keep up the good work!

would love a video about my club austria vienna, great history in the mitropa cup, would love to know if players like herbert prohaska, mathias sindelar,, etc are known in the world

Video suggestion:French speaking belgian 11 vs Dutch speaking belgian 11

Regarding the whole Austrian view on the Anschluss thing - first off, the Anschluss was indeed rather popular. Mainly because Austria was still reeling from the collapse of the Empire and in 1918, most people didn't think Austria in that form was able to survive as a country. The collapse also caused hyperinflation, which was staved off in the mid 20s, only for the economy to crash back down in the 20s and 30s. So the sentiment that Austria as a nation was not able to survive was still very prevalent, and the integration into the bigger Germany with a (seemingly) strong economy welcomed. Also, Karl Renner was born in modern day Dolní Dunajovice in the former german majority region of southern Bohemia, which had, in the waning days of WW1 together with the rest of Sudetenland already declared an Austrian republic. No referendum was given to the people in that region (just like South Tyrol) so Renner, as a member of the losing group in that exchange, obviously supported the annexation of the Sudetenland. As for Antisemite - before the war, most of the snippets used to support the thesis that he was an antisemite are lacking context. Namely, the conservative "Christlichsoziale Partei" used the same antisemitic rethoric as the German right, including the "jewish social democrats". Renner mostly appropriated that rhetoric with heavy sarcasm to attack those same opponents. The antisemitism post war was mostly in regards to former KZ inmates, as the Austrian government took the same stance that the allies did in the 1943 Moscow conforence (that Austria was Hitlers first victim), so from the view of the government at the time they were simply not responsible. So imo he wasn't unusually antisemitic for the time. He did also spend the whole post-Anschluss period under house arrest by the nazis. A rather cushy one compared to other social democrats, but still Obviously, in hindsight, especially his post WW2 positions, are incredibly wrong. I just wanted to contextualize the information slightly.

I ALREADY KNEW THIS FACT!

Podcasts please

Suggestion: Best all time starting XI from Ajax. It would be interesting for instance Ibra or Suarez as the 9? Pls like

AS Monaco have been 8 times winners of Ligue 1, which is a similar situation.

You've reached 300K subs, and HITC Sport has reached 450K subs. So now will your boss let you collab with Michael and James?

@3:34 Jeesus! Look at the moobs on the German goalie...and that knitwear!!

Alfie, why is Irish Guy uploading at bloody 6 in the morning, is it because clocks went back?

I am discombopulated on how this happened

Alfie: Hitler might’ve been a Schalke fan Me, a Schalke fan: ummm at least we have a famous fan.....

The picture at 15:20 is kinda misplaced as it won't fit into the timeline (looks like > 1970)

At least Vienna won the title when they were actually part of Germany. In the early years of german football, one of the best teams to compete in the german championship was DFC Prag, a german-speaking team from Prague, then part of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. They qualified for the final in 1903 (which they lost to VfB Leipzig).

Stefan Laimer,Valentino Lazaro & Marko Arnautovic could get called up for Germany/Austria as there would be 23 named

A team from Prague also got German champions in 1903

Vienna has two clubs, which won the German Cup

5:26 looks like they let Goring be the ref.

Why should Rapid Wien be called Austria Vienna? Austria Wien (stemming from the Latin word for Österreich) is another big club from Vienna and the eternal rival of Rapid. What would be the anglicised name of Austria Wien? Geschmürtzschliff Vienna...?
