- Forgotten Football Grounds | The Athletic Ground (McCain Stadium)
Today I do on the Athletic Ground, the former home of Scarborough Football Club from 1898-2007. For sponsorship reasons it was also called the McCain Stadium.

went here week in week out since 1985. Shed and then East stand. Still hurts me seeing the demise of our stadium.
Thanks for watching the video. Do you go to the new stadium?
I love Scarborough, but never went to that football ground.
I have, however, been to the cricket ground twice to watch Gloucestershire play Yorkshire.
It has a 'football ground feel' about it, and now I know why.
Other highlights are the daily 'Naval Battle Re-enactment' in Peasholm Park, seeing The Chuckle Brothers' summer show (surprisingly good) at the Futurama Theatre and attending the free 'Seafest' music festival by the harbour.
Up The Gas!
I've been to that same Lidl, never realized that was once where Scarborough played
Thanks for watching the video
Such a shame it’s gone.
I recall being there in an FA cup second round game in December 1988. Scarborough dominated the game but a player called Richardson scored a sensational own goal right in front of us travelling Carlisle fans. It was last minute and we went crazy!!!! We then drew Liverpool in the 3rd round
Sad; but in January 2005 we Carlisle fans sang back at the Scarborough fans, “did you cry when jimmy scored?”
A reference to Goal keeper jimmy glass scoring last minute winner to relegate Scarborough.
Thanks for the video.
Good trip into a my past.
I don't Scarborough ever recovered from that Jimmy Glass goal.
@@historyoffootball87 I spent my 30th birthday there for a Carlisle game. Great town
the own goal that day was scored by Steve Richards who was the captain of Scarborough
@@101100rich yep! That is it! The funny thing was he always seemed immense when he played against us.
@@jimmycburfield5997 he was a good lower divisio centre half and very popular at Scarborough , mind you it was a cracking good own goal from about 20 yards lol , i went to Brunton Park twice with Scarborough first time Carlisle won 4-0 and the season after we won 1-0 , went in a pub near the ground which i think was called the Beehive
Was there for the Red Star Belgrade game. Interesting that the covenant was applied by the council to the ground until they owned the land themselves.
Would of been a good game against Red Star Belgrade.
I fell through the the roof
Never in this world
😢😢😢😢. 🌊🐶❤️
I was on the pitch the day we got relegated from the football league if you remember the famous Jimmy Glass goal 😢
I have seen the goal, I remember uploading it on my Tiktok.
Having posted a comment it's now disappeared.
Hmmm?
Up The Gas!
