Dunfermline Athletic Football Club are based in Fife and are one of the most well supported teams in Scotland.
They play at East End Park and have won two Scottish Cups. They've played in Europe and have also had legends at the club like Sir Alex Ferguson, Jock Stein and George Farm.
Dunfermline Athletic's (or the Pars) story is an interesting one. Please leave a like!!!

Brilliant stuff, Sam. Thinking back to Dunfermline's memorable achievements over the years, I well recall as a then 12yo the surprise, pain and sheer disbelief on learning, courtesy of Saturday's Classified Football Results, that Celtic had lost 2-0 AT HOME to Dunfermline in the first round of the Scottish Cup, January 1968. (My only "consolation"? The Pars went on to win the competition, beating Rangers' conquerors Hearts in the Final.) And Dunfermline's performances and results in the following season's European Cup-Winners Cup competition were stunning.
Gotta say that I'm mightily impressed with your channel - the variety of content, the telling of the stories (which often include non-football material but which is clearly related and equally interesting), and the excitement and enthusiasm you convey and display. And having access now (this Comment dated 1 June 2024) to players and managers post match adds another dimension. Plus, I always enjoy clips of Ian Crocker and yourself chewing the fat from time to time.
I've noticed channel subscriber numbers steadily climbing over the past many months. Won't be long before you reach 200K. Onwards and upwards as they say. Aim high. Aim for the sky, sport (as they say in Oz).
Brilliant video!! Didnt think i was gonna see a full dunfermline video like this but this is brilliant!
Thanks Robbie, glad you liked it! Let me know if you want me to cover other clubs too!
Fine video of a fine club and what a job Big Jock did, phenomenal. The run to the Euro SF was phenomenal, Slovan Bratislava were called an Army team so that all the best players in the country could become officers and play for them. Nearly all the Communist countries operated this system.
I’m a Dunfermline fan, love this!
Nice thanks very much! Hope to see a game there eventually!
My two hero’s. Steven Gerrard and Footy Adventures. What a man !!
I’ve been to East End Park, one of the few Scottish stadiums I’ve been to as an English guy, good old fashioned stadium. Good vid mate
Hope to see u back mate our atmosphere and cross have improved so so much in just 2 years so worth a visit recommend coming if we're playing Falkirk our biggest rivals beat them 2-0 last week or Raith for derby day
@@camerondoherty2044 wouldn’t mind getting back at some point, I’m in Fife a couple of times a year so makes sense, good club as well
Another crackin video Sam. I've always had a wee soft spot for Dunfermline as my big cousin Ian Westwater played for them. ⚽⚽
Cheers mate! that's cool that your cousin played for them!
@@FootyAdventures he's on the mural on the wall. I need to get back up to East end Park sometime
Ian Westwater, a true Dunfermline legend. A great goalie, always a bit iffy at corners but otherwise a great keeper.
I’m a West Bromwich Albion fan and a newish Raith Rovers fan.
I should hate this video but respect to the Pars.
I forgot about West Brom losing to Dunfermline in Europe so it’s quite apt I ended up supporting Raith I guess😂
I hope to visit East End Park one day for a Fife derby.
I learned something new about the Pars from this video, the tower in the club badge. Good find and thanks for sharing
Glad you enjoyed it!
Absolute legend mate! Thank you for doing a more in depth video of my club! I'll be sharing this video with my fellow Pars friends! As always, keep up the great work! Hopefully we can get back to watch them play soon!
Also, as spotted in the video, East End Park is currently being used as a vaccination centre. The first Scottish stadium to allow this to happen.
Class video once again! 🏁😊
Up the pars 🏁🏁⚽️
They’ve had two Manchester United managers play for them, Alex Ferguson and Davie Moyes 🙂👍
Yeah true!!
@@FootyAdventures Thought you might mention the other link with Barcelona and mention The Pars 0 v 4 comeback to draw with Valencia 6 v 6 on aggregate after a 6 v 2 win at East End Park in 1962... this comeback record stood famously until Barcelona came back from 0 v 4 down to beat PSG 6 v 1 in 2017 😉👍
Woo come on ye pars! been a fan since i was a wee tot, brilliant video, also that river and bridge are ONE OF the most famous in britain!
Really great hair cut Sam and lovely blue sky Scottish day he said jealously !
Brilliant informative video as ever Sam.
Finally I got my lovely Partick Thistle mural canvas via you and hanging proudly on my wall now. So happy with it.
Cheers, Alan aka Warks Jag.
Dunfermline were my local club when I used to live in Scotland, got to see them play a few times. Nice to see a video dedicated to them on such a great channel. Here’s hoping they pump Raith Rovers when that postponed match is revisited!
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching!!
And you have been receiving counselling ever since due to the trauma you suffered watching
Dunfermline Athletic lol.
( Just a Joke ).
Brilliant Sam. Really enjoy the mixing football and town History. The History of Dumfries is fascinating so might be worth a look for your next QOS video
Another fascinating vid Sam
Cheers Bob!
I support Dunfermline
Fantastic channel,so informative,covering the heart and soul of football clubs ,I'm an English villa fan ,who has Scottish reletives,and who has visited a few Scottish grounds,your channel is so refreshing and real, loved your piece on gretna
Nice, thanks very much! Glad to hear it. Hoping to cover more grounds in England once restrictions lift so maybe soon I'll get to Villa! Cheers for watching, much appreciated. More coming soon
@@FootyAdventures your welcome ,I've visited over two hours hundred EFL and non league grounds ,and spend most of my time during a match looking at the stands ,terraces and my favourite,floodlight porn lol,there's at great set at my boyhood club Hereford FC , sadly disappearing,all the best love your stuff mate
love the vid! cant wait for more content
More to come!
Sam,
Another good one.
Wont be long till things are a little more normal.
Shades on jackets off.
Keep safe.
Yet another excellent video. Yours is by far the best football vlog. And a good decision to disable comments on the Rangers are champions video.
Thanks very much, kind of you to say so!
Great video mate you should do a video with some fans you have mad my day keep the good work up
Thanks! Defintiely will once fans are back!
I know it's not the subject of this video, but, I just wanted to thank you for showing more objectivity and balance than 99.9% of the Scottish press, and the Scottish government, in sharing the title celebrations. Not one news agency have mentioned BLM, Indi marches, Celtic riots etc. Thank you from a bear, and a new sub. 55 WATP
Thanks for subscribing and letting me know your thoughts on the Champions video. I knew the media wouldn't cover it from a football/balanced perspective. They usually just push messages that are often not football based. There is an unbalance when reporting these things sadly, but I wanted to give it a fair review. Also, it's the biggest football moment in Scotland this century so I really couldn't miss out! Cheers! More videos coming soon :)
Fine video about a fine club and what a great job Big Jock did. Miraculous really and getting them to the QF of the ECWC, phenomenal.
Yeah big Jock is a legend! Thanks for watching mate
@@FootyAdventures You’re welcome mate. It’s always good to see your videos.
Big Jock cut his European teeth at East End Park - as Everton discovered to their cost !!! Then there was the astonishing 6-2 win over Valencia.
@@maconescotland8996 Fantastic results,, that might be even better than the Lions considering what he took over
If you had to take a drink every time he said 'cup', you wouldn't see the end of this video.
Always wondered what the tower had to do with the club . Remember seeing the hibs beat the pars back in the skol cup final at the old Hampden .
Fun fact my gran worked for norrie and my grandad and they were great friends with him
My father took me to the 1968 Cup Final . 56.000 crowd as I recall.
I was there too. 3-1 win against the Jam Tarts
Great video
Hope you enjoyed 'the glen' whilst you visited the tower👌
Dunfermline Athletic European regulars! Who knew? Great vid.
yeah 20 European ties between 61 and 69 plus 2 play off games , 42 in total from Anderlecht to Zaragoza, must have been a great era, was just born too late to experience it . ( i know the Anderlecht home game overlapped into January 1970 ! )
Excellent video with excellent club information. Would love you to cover a match day,interact with the fans before during and after the game. Keep up the good work #COYP
Thank you and yeah I'd love to get to a game there once things open up. Can't wait to see the mighty Pars play and chat to some fans!!
I no
The ground you were at in beginning of thr video is Dunfermline Sports Club, hosts the cricket, rugby and squash clubs. The side you were on is the cricket side though thr rugby 1st team play on that side too which is why there is the stand there. In normal times, the football club train on the cricket side for preseason until October time, then use Keltys ground, but in covid times we use Alloa ground this now.
The gut on the legends wall my uncle was the dunfermline fc manager Bert paton but I support alloa fc
Good 👍
What a lovely day for a vlog! 😎
I know! 😎😎😎
Great vid
Cheers mate
Great video, hard to say if we'll get promoted with our current run of form being poor but if you make it to the playoffs anything can happen!
Fair enough! Will be good to see the Pars in the Prem! Cheers for watching!
Just took the Pars to a third place top flight finish, and Scottish Cup glory on CM 97/98, in season 2012/13 - a 3-2 win over Rangers, coming back from 0-2 down at half time.
Typical wacky CM 97/98, but I don't care. Cup Winners Cup here we come!
Before you had the away goals rule Dunfermline had the greatest comeback in European Football competition when they lost 4-0 to Valencia away from home only to win 6-2 at home on an icy night a week before Christmas 1962. In those days you had a playoff game at neutral venue which we lost 1-0. Barcelona stole our record post away goals rule when they came back against PSG from a 4-0 defeat to win 6-1 in second leg
I was there! A great night.
Im a Pars fan and I didnt know the story about the badge! One of the best Dunfermline stories however, was when we played Valencia in the 1962 Fairs Cup and had lost the 1st leg in Spain 4-0. For the return leg, Jock Stein decided to put an untried 16 year old school boy and a 19 year old european debutant in the team just for the experience... We won 6-2 (6-6 on aggregate) Scoring 4 goals in the first 34 minutes. Back then instead of away goals or penalties, it went to a deciding leg which would be played in Lisbon, where we lost 1-0. Apparently everyone who turned up for the game at East End Park that night say that that was our best ever game at home ever. No British side had previously beaten Valencia and those they'd played were Rangers, Celtic, Wolves, Manchester United, Blackpool and Birmingham and they had won the tournament the previous year beating Barcelona in the Final 7-3 on Aggregate. That 16 year old schoolboy was Alex Edwards and the 19 year old was Jackie Sinclair who would between them score 3 of our 6 goals that night... I couldnt even imagine what this would be like for me to witness... My Grandad was there that night and always kept the highlights recorded on a VHS video which he kept on the book shelf, which also had the big games against Everton and West Brom and both the Cup final wins on it and I'd always watch it with him everytime I'd come stay at my Gran and Grandads and cheer along as if I was there in time with him just as he cheered all those years ago... Football eh...
Check the main picture of this article taken before kick off that night - www.dailyrecord.co.uk/sport/barcelona-miracle-wont-erase-dunfermlines-10000032
Never seen any highlights of West Brom games but Everton, Valencia , Slovan and Anderlecht games are all on a DVD of the 60s. Also includes the 2 cup final wins .
Great video again another month before I get a haircut 😆😆😆🚜🚜
Cracking video about the pars but how did you manage to leave out the place where dunfermline were formed the Old Inn there is plaque outside to confirm this fact you must have walked past it to get into the park
Oh no really!? What a shame, I'll check that out next time! Cheers for watching
can you do a history video on Raith rovers
Short video that will be. 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I would say’s pars v Falkirk is much bigger then Rovers
how do you only have 20k subs
Gotta keep it growing mate! Cheers for watching

I wish they had never done away with The Cup Winners Cup it was a fantastic tournament you always got to see clubs that you had only ver herd or read about in books clubs such as Slovan Bratislava how I remember The Leagnd that is Roberto Di Matteo scoreing against for The Mighty Chelsea the season we won The Cup Winners Cup 97/98
I think it was the first round if I remmber right away in Bratislava
I also remember The away game against Tromso back then people where like whare the heck even is Tromso no Wikipedia back in they says.
Good vlg Sam I learnt a bit about
The Dunfermline Athletic Crest it always just looked like a complete mess to me like it had been designd buy a 5 year old.
My favourite club Crests are
Lokamotiv Moscow's & Hibernian's
they tell you all you need to know about both clubs they represent both clubs extremely well Hibernian have had many different Crests through the decades but the modern version I hope they stay with for a very long time to come The Ajax crest is right up there aswell same with The Seattle Sounders Crest.
If Dunfermline Athletic do go up then good luck to them but I dont think any of The CChampionship club in Scotland have what it takes to say in
The Premier League without investing heavily in the transfer market I watch plenty of games in our Championship & even Hearts have been dyer to watch & I honestly believe Scottish football could do with a strong Hearts team but sadly they are extremely poor to watch.
Keep up the good work Sam.
Do you believe The Euro's will go ahead ?.
There is talk that The Euro's could be played entirely in The U.K aswell as Dublin to let fans attend.
I personally dont think playing games in so many different country's with fans travelling about so much is such a good idea even before
The Pandemic & I think The Pandemic is a good example Why this is the case two host country's should always be plenty in my view.
Keep Safe.
Hibs with the harp? Thought you were a good orangeman Alan 😅👍
That’s the rugby park
Hopefully hearts and dunfermline go up
We'll see!
@@FootyAdventures bad result for hearts today again lol
Mon the DAAAA
I'll be checking out for their scores!! Cheers for watching!!
'MoN the pars!
I think Dunfermline will get promoted. They'll finish second (the mighty Hearts will take the title.) And they will beat Kilmarnock in the promotion play off.
Also Since the weather is getting better now might be the time to head right up north to Wick Academy. They are the most northern team in the UK.
Nice, would like to see them in the Prem! Yeah I'll definitely get up to Wick at some point!!
Will Dunfermline go up?.....I dont think so. The league is exciting in that any team can beat any other team but more due to the over all poor quality in the division. Dunfermline can one week give Hearts the run around and beat them fairly convincingly and then go n get pumped off Arbroath the next week. We had a good run at the start and have spluttered ever since but as you can see, we somehow still sit third because no one else has had a good enough run.
If we don't even get into the play offs (entirely plausible) that will be an abject failure with a squad as good as ours and therefore our manager Stevie Crawford will have to revert to being a club legend rather than a manager also. Will always love Stevie but missing out on playoffs will be unacceptable.
Don't let bitter tims shut down your comment section.
first
Thanks mate!!!
13th comment
Cheers!
How long do u think the Largs vid will be to make and upload?
@@calblack4156 I'll try and get it done for you over the next week or two. Any interesting largs facts I should mention?
@@FootyAdventures they have won a Ayrshire cup and been in 3 Scottish junior cup finals Winning 1 of them, they play in the West of Scotland premier league and play their home games at barrfields park, Gordon McQueen played for them he went on to play for Man U and Leeds United

@@FootyAdventures Really good video mate. I have subscribed and will watch all of your content. We were so robbed in those 2 cup finals! The first one was the return of Henrick Larson, he had a freak of a leg break but came back an even better player and we had to just take it. There was also a dodgy dive! The second one was a farce too. We were playing so well in that tournament and we were in the 1st division at that time. We beat Partick thistle, Hibs, Hearts and Rangers on the way to the final and got robbed by Celtic in the final! So typical, but I wouldn't change it for the world!
When Celtic regain their title, can you please do a video on fans celebrating, I'd much appreciate it
Definitely!!!
rovers going up
