I have been watching The Asian Champions League this week & doing a bit of research aswell at the same time. And Looking in to football In Vietnam as even in Asian football teams it's a bit off the beaten track & came across could Ho Chi Minh City there nickname is The Red Battleship with a nickname like that there has to be a very good story there so myb some day you can do another trip to Asia & take a look at football in Vietnam how many You Tubers are doing that.

Delusional

I played with Linton Hotspur in the late 50s, we played at what was then The Pantiles , anyway good luck in your venture.

Yup. I saw Inverkeithing Hillfield Swifts lose their first game as an East of Scotland club 10-0 at home, and now they're well established in the EoS Premier League. Everybody starts somewhere and as long as the fundamentals are in place they'll be fine.

I would not say in Scotland we really have such a thing as community spirit you would be very hard pushed to find community spirit in Scotland at all especially in this day in age. I come from the village of Elderslie originally but live in Hamilton now. I believe there was community spirit in Scotland if you go back to the mind 70's from what my Mum & Dad tell me I am 42 but I would not say it has existed in Scotland since I was born in 1981. In terms of football community spirit I think you vastly underestimate the hold The Old Firm have over the vast majority of football fans in Scotland. Myb if a club like say Johnstone Burgh get to The Junior Cup final you see it for myb 2 weeks max then it disappears quickly after that but something like that is as close as we get to community spirit. I think one of the biggest issues in Scotland in terms of having very little if any community spirit is size of population plus people move town & Villages much more now a day's. Unfortunately religion is the ruling factor in much of Scotland much more than community spirit ever has been & that is a sad fact of life in most of Scotland. I went up to Forres just before the Pandemic to watch Forres Thistle play Pollok in The Scottish Junior Cup The Pub we went to Pree game must of had a but 40 Celtic fans watching there game on T.V 40 miles North of Glasgow to me that says everything about Football in Scotland you need to ask why are they fans not following Forres Mechanics of The Highland League or Forres Thistle a Juniors club in The North region answer religion it's just the way it is in Scotland.

Not just in Scotland. All around the world, it's the same. People's love for the sport is what makes these sorts of stories magical.

Not getting much action are you

@@bobbysutherland4700 ... from a pathetic glory hunter

Where is that Debbie?

Actually yes you’re right. The guys at the ground were telling me that story off camera. Really interesting! For sure you should visit them this season. It’s their first season in the pyramid so you’ve gotta go to witness history! Cheers for watching 🎥🙌🏼

@@FootyAdventures cheers Sam, he was my dad's apprentice electrician at the pit before he took his talent in to the pitch

I’ll be along soon I’m sure! Thanks for watching 🙌🏼🙌🏼

@@FootyAdventures appreciate all the hard work you put in BTS to give us the videos you do. I doubt there is a ground in Scotland with more slope than the one in St Andrews! You really do play uphill and downhill!

For sure

Aye, you gotta get to the magic scenic isle in the Outer Hebrides where the unluckiest player has to clear the cowpats before the match 😂

@@eileannach4350 To riff on the does a boxer need a massage after a bout quote: a good footballer doesn't mind clearing the cowpats away, a bad footballer deserves to clear them away :) Hey eileannach, do you not sometimes have to clear the horses from the pitch, too? FIFA has said that it is one of the eight most remarkable places to play football in the world. Not that I think FIFA can tell its arse from its elbow, mind, but the might be correct on this point.

No, nothing to do with the Kop. As the memorial plaque shows, it's named after a former player called Douglas Coupar who passed away.

@@gordon1545 I did understand that - it was meant to be a pun on kop and cowp

I've got uBlock Origin, still prevents all the ads.

Haha thanks!! What an honour 😄

​@@FootyAdventures Well you make great vids, I love Aussie Rules, Ice Hockey and Rugby and no one makes content like this about those sports. But I do like football culture and the history and place it has in our society, so as a sports fan I love your work. Cheers!

Peeblesshire - got caught up in local government reorganisation. Such a wee place mind, next place along the road is Biggar.

@@richardwebb5317 Peebles is feeble. Biggar bigger.

I agree 🇷🇺

Founded in 1882, Tottenham's emblem is a cockerel standing upon a football, with the Latin motto Audere est Facere ("to dare is to do").

but I;m not sure why WL team call it that..I'm frae there but canny stand fitba!

@@BokorRider legend has it that an Edinburgh businessman working in London with West Linton connections had ties with Tottenham around the time of Linton Hotspur Football Club being formed in 1928....It is certainly entirely plausible.
