- In this video I visited Hampden Park, Hampden Park and Hampden Park.
There are three sites in Glasgow that have at one time or another had a stadium named Hampden Park on them. Scotland play their football there, Queen's Park have played at them all and they've also hosted numerous Scottish Cup finals.
The first Hampden Park is at the site where international football was born!

What a brilliant story,never knew the Scots played such an important story in football.
Yeah, its scotland and england who created the game we all know and love!
Great vid. I did the same exploration of the Hampdens in 2008 - a fascinating history and an easily walkable tour. A fabulous footie museum at Hampden too.
Thanks very much! Yeah the Hampden story is an incredible one. I've never been to the museum, the SFA have kept it shut since March 2020 with no signs of reopening this year. Utter joke!
I was lucky enough to watch England play at the old Hampden Park before it was knocked down. Amazing stadium built to hold 150,000. The new ground is so underwhelming in comparison......it looks identical to dozens of other grounds and only holds 52000 and that's supposed to be progress!
Would love to have seen it back in the day!
@@FootyAdventures It was a very impressive sight. I went in 1988 or 89 (can't remember exactly, but England won!) When you look at photos or videos of the old Hampden with 130,000+ inside you can clearly see the fans are not packed in like sardines but still have plenty of room. It really was vast.
It was the noise which stood out for me from the old ground.
Modern journalists/commentators/pundits talk about the ‘Hampden Roar’ as if it were as made up as Braveheart, but when the old stadium had 100,000+ inside it literally did...well, roar.
The noise on a big match could be incredible.
@@scottishbikerseumas5317 I liked the thumping sounds from the old stands. Hampden didn't have the Phil Spector acoustics of modern stadiums but it was a thunderous sound that came from it.
Great video. I've lived less than 2 miles from here most of my life and I never really knew about this!! I've been on Third Lanark's pitch when I was a kid when the ground had shut down but I never realised the bowling club was the site of the old Hampden!
Go check it out when you get a chance! Only over the road from cathkin
@@FootyAdventures Yeah, I drive past it every other day lol. These videos of yours are great. History is such an important part of football. A lot of the old stadiums in UK have been demolished and replaced with these identikit plastic arenas as you know. I really don't like those, they lack character. Have you been to Starks Park Kirkcaldy where Raith Rovers have played since 1891? The ground isn't completely original, but the unusual L-shaped main stand that houses the players dressing facilities and the supporters lounge was designed by the renowned Grandstand architect Archibald Leitch and was built with part funding from the sale of Alex James to Preston North End in 1925. I think that would be a real interesting one.
I grew up quite near Hamden 1 & 2 and have played football at Cathkin Park a few times.
You can feel the history in the place.
Cool video bro 👍
Nice! And thank you!
Another great video. Have had the opportunity of visiting Hampden for a SNT friendly but was unaware at the time of the significance of the park and the area. As you pointed out, while England is credited with the birth of football, many don't realize that it was the Scots who influenced the idea of passing and running with the ball. Thanks again!
Cheers for watching!
Brilliant ending too this video. I can just feel the goosebumps.
Thank you!
Love the history you present of Scottish football. Would love to see the sights and history of Renton FC and Vale of Leven, Tontine park and Millburn park respectively. You're work is much appreciated. Cheers!
Thank you! I'm getting a lot of requests for Vale of Leven!
Cathkin Park is a great wee place. I always go for my lunchtime walks there. Cracking video once again.
Thanks 👍 and yeah love a bit of Cathkin!
Another great vid Sam. Queen's Park were actually amateur until recently, not semi-pro. They were well known as the only amateur team in the SPFL.
Oh right I didn't realise! Thanks again for watching
@@FootyAdventures Their motto was the Latin phrase, Ludere causa Ludendi, which, translated into English means ‘To play for the sake of playing’
@@FootyAdventures If it wasn't for Queens Park being snotty about professionalism then it would probably have been them who became a huge club rather than Rangers.
Wow fantastic video. Keep them coming and keep safe
Cheers Mick and will do!
Ur some boy! What a cracking adventure this vid is ♥️👍
Glad you enjoyed it! New video just went live for more footy adventures :)
Lords Cricket Ground has a similar history to the Hampdens.
Thomas Lords first ground hosting some historic early matches.
Eton v Harrow have been playing annually since 1805. MCC had a similar significance in the game to Queens Park. Codifying
the rules, etc. There were two Lords grounds at one point, the first went due to a rent dispute, facilities moved to site two, then a canal was built through the ground so the current site was developed.
Ah cool good to know! Cheers!

Honestly hand on heart I feel this is buy far the best You Tube
Channel video ever & certainly that I have ever watched & I am subscribed to many You Tube Channels myself.
I watch Coppa 90 , Away Days but this is way better than any content they have ever produced you can tell you did a lot of research for this video in particular.
I look forward to your next video Sam.
We have a glorious history in Scotland when it comes to football I just hope our football in Scotland has a glorious future aswell earlier this afternoon I found out there are rumours of financial problems at Morton with David Hopkin stepping down as manager amid rumours of financial problems at the club & we know financial mismanagement is suspected at Saint Mirren with an Independent auditor being brought in to go though the accounts it just makes me censured how financialy healthy many of our club in Scotland are behind the seens we also know Celtic have lot 16 million due to the Pandemic & Rangers 17 million if I remmber right with no tickets Money coming in though the gates aswell as The T.V rights money being nowhere near what it is in England with The Premier League I am truly censured some of our biggest clubs is Scotland could go under early in the new year.
Keep Safe Sam.
Cheers Alan, really appreciate that. I know you enjoy my videos, but so glad you liked this one over most others. I really enjoyed filming this today, I love stories like this one myself. Yeah I saw the news on St Mirren. Didn't know about Morton but I'll check it out. It's a shame when clubs go under so to speak, but there's always good willing clubs in the lower divisions ready to step up!
Love your enthusiasm for Scottish football. Cathkin Park should be protected the way historical sites are. It’s just fading away, such a shame.
So true!
@@FootyAdventures is there any chance you can cover MUSSELBURGH ATHLETIC and there ground olivebank stadium it's in market street musselburgh.
Thank you. Ewan mclay.
just love that weather y ese entusiasmo por fútbol. Gracias por tu channel
¡muchas gracias!
If you wanna trace Jinky back to his routes, best to visit his hometown of Viewpark east of Glasgow. It has a statue in his honour and is also home to Thorniewood United FC which is a nice wee park with tiny terracing where he trained as a boy.
I recommend going to the ground were the first ever international football match was played, Scotland vs England in Patrick!
Hes already done that 😅
Went there during this vid mate..... enjoy! czcams.com/video/bNQwI_HSrrc/video.html
@@FootyAdventures ahh I see haha sorry, thank you I’ll check it out!
@@Welchy no worries man cheers!
Another fascinating video Sam I loved it. Great stuff as always
Queen’s Park were an amateur team until recently. I went to a St Mirren v Queen’s Park and the QP players had a Mr. prefix on their names in honour of their amateur status.
Fascinating! Thanks.
Glad you enjoyed it!
I was one of the last people to play at cathkin park before they removed the goal posts a few years ago. cool video.
Oh cool! And thank you!
Good appraisal !! Well presented !!! 🏴⚽️🏴
Thanks! 😃
Enjoyed that Sam very informative. Keep up the good work.
Thanks 👍
Wow im so shocked - i actually live on the same street as that bowling club further along across from the park and never knew all this - ive even been in the club house when they had a charity day - thanks for this video it was awesome - i might walk along there later and just stare at it for a little while knowing what i know now - good job i didnt bump into you i think i might have been a bit star struck - thanks again for this amazing video
Nice, glad I could bring it to your attention! Definitely go and check out a few of the sites :)
Fascinating, enjoyed this informative video well done
Glad you enjoyed it! Cheers mate!
Fantastic and very educational, keep the good work up👍
Many thanks!
Excellent video big man, possibly one of my favourites EVER on youtube! I live in Glasgow and I've never seen that mural, I never even knew we had 3 Hamden's lol think I'm going to go and basically retrace your steps around all 3 sites to try and get a feel for them on my next day off! Brilliant Sam, cheers mate :)
Really appreciate that mate cheers! Definitely go and check out the sites 🏟🙂
Ha ha me too - place is going to be buzzing with Sam fans looking about the place at this rate
@@williamf4544 haha they'll be everywhere! Glad this video got such a good response!
love all the history in your vlogs, so good.
Amazing to hear :) more coming soon! Thanks for watching
The first ever Scotland v england was played at partick cricket ground ,
Yeah true! I visited that very site in a video earlier this year!
czcams.com/video/bNQwI_HSrrc/video.html
That's correct. But it wasn't a football stadium, or a ground purposely designed for football matches.
Great video just watch a documentary of Mark Walters and the games involving the old enemies was fascinating. As the Scotland team was captained by a Black player named Andrew Watson if I remember correctly his was also a member off the great Queens Park team of the same era. Love Scottish football and hope to do my own tour one day starting at Fort William. Keep up the good work Sam.
This is my favourite video on yt right now and your best video ever keep it up I’m enjoying it
Wow, thanks! I really enjoyed filming it :)
Yet another good vid mate , am learning a just subbed you after the history of Rangers vid
brilliant as always
Thank you! Cheers!
Brilliant mate be travelling up to Hampden for Scotland v Israel game gonna go vist the other two sites loving your work must watch channel well done keep up good work shared on twitter spreading the word #footyadventures
Glasgow Rangers once played a European Cup match at a stadium built in 1807. The ground was comissioned by Napoleon Bonaparte, originally for fake naval battles. The ground could be intentionally flooded.
The Arena Civica in Milan was used between the wars by Inter Milan. AC used it occasionally. Held up to 30k. In 1957 Rangers away tie with AC was switched to the ground due to fog at San Siro. Possibly a late kick off time change as well, as only about 5k went to the game.
It's still used by small rugby and soccer teams.
Access at non match times was reportedly easy.
Brilliant Sam 👋 excellent commentary buddy 👍 thanks Sam👍 stay safe my friend 🙏
Thanks very much Michael! All the best, more coming soon!
@@FootyAdventures we appreciate all your efforts and we love your enthusiasm!!..... legend Sam👍up the pools!!
Excellent and very interesting .............

Best Park in Glasgow hands down 👌
Fabulous video...! 👍🏻
Thanks a lot 😊
Great video Always knew about the first Hampden but never knew where it was. Now I know Cheers
Glad to help!
Outstanding video mate.
Thanks alan!
The street in the background with the tenements is called hampden terrace. Named after lord john hampden an warlord that fought in the english civil war. Dont tell the tartan army but that means the national stadium for scotland was named after an english man.
Wow, goosebumps seeing all those victories against England then brought down to earth by my Welsh wife for the Welsh victories. Great video and should be available to any historians looking at football origins
Haha! And thanks mate!
This is utterly awesome fella totally enjoyable England 2 Scotland 3 after England won World Cup mega this great gear fella you must dip in into the highland n lowland leagues I know you touch on a few lowland ones love these Queen’s Park items third Lanark again awesome let’s have some Buckie thistle fort William whick academy brill bud

Great video again Sam 👌sorry I've missed your last two or three vids..☹️ Will catch up 👍
Been playing Fifa 15 Rangers career mode....trying to sign as many players they have now experiment...👍
@@craigmcblane2596 no worries mate all good! Thanks for coming back and watching anyway. If theres ever a reason not to watch, fifa is the best one!
Been watching your videos for a while and unfortunately someone beat me to the 3 Hampden Park sites. It’s actually a very little known fact. Glad you’re having fun travelling. Stay safe
Thank you! Glad I got this vid up to be fair. Really cool story
Archeology Scotland and Hampden bowling club have plans to excavate the old stadium - keep an eye out for that next year
Great video mate
Thanks 👍
Great video once again, i'm surprised you didn't mention that the ground was named after a fellow Englishman of yours, John Hampden. lol
Haha I wish I knew!
I still have one of the old wooden seats from the main (south) stand at Hampden; they were up for grabs when the big refurbishment to make it the modern all-seater stadium, in the 1990s.
Oh cool, a nice piece of history!
This is great and educational you teach me more than my teachers every will🏴🏴🏴🏴
Cheers mate!
@@FootyAdventures your weclome when is next educational upload?
@@lennonout7127 I'll have a video up tomorrow (but possibly tonight) from a matchday 🙂⚽️
@@FootyAdventures what game?
@@lennonout7127 Kelty Hearts v Gretna
Enjoyed the video? Absolutely loved it. Your info is amazing. You said 12.5k subscribers at time of making this video. 49.5k now. Well done.
Almost 200k now.
Great video was at the last of the 100k plus games in 1973 the centenary Scottish Cup final sure it was 122,000 ,safety reasons cut all attendances after then
Another great vid mate. Maybe check out Maryhill FC’s ground?
Cheers! I went there in a recent video titled "Glasgow Groundhopping" :)
Footy Adventures nice mate I’ll check it out 👍
5-1 great result for Scotland, hopefully they can build on this good form.
you should visit The Northern Echo Arena in Darlington! - Capacity: 25,500 pure madness
Hmm what have I seen at Hampden, St Mirren in three cup finals (two wins), Usain Bolt, Greg Rutherford and three days of Athletics at the commonwealth games, AC/DC Bon Jovi, Ed Sheeran, U2 Will be going to Gerry Cinnamon if it ever happens, 6 or 7 Scotland games. few things. Murrayfield rivals it with Rolling Stones, U2 a fair few Rugby Games and the Scottish Claymores winning the World Bowl :) .
Sounds like some good times!
Thats awesome
Thank you!
Lovely bit of football history
@@martynmurray8927 Certainly is!
Been 2. Never new the 1st one woz there as well 🤣
Good video mate
Thanks 👍
5-1 what a great score 🇱🇻❤️🇱🇻 at Hampden
I've been following the Scottish national team since I was about 12 y.o. since the World cup in . . . .never mind the year.
We started getting live telecasts of the games in around 1985, '86 or so, crackly, hazy vision of poor quality.
But one game had particular interest to me, Scotland Vs. Australia to qualify for Mexico '86.
This is because the captain of Australia had played in high school football with my brother, & had presented me with my first trophy when I was around 10 y.o.
In a T.V. interview he spoke about that game (at the old Hampden) and said something he had never quite experienced & will never forget was the noise of the crowd. He said the volume & the intensity was unbelievable.
The all-seater system is safer, but the atmosphere doesn't quite seem to be the same anymore.
Brilliant video btw .
Thanks!
@@FootyAdventures You’re welcome
I only went to Hampden Once,1974 Scotland v East Germany ,Graeme Souness debut for Scotland. (I live in Australia,otherwise there would be many more visits to Hampden).
Great video lad
Cheers Fergie!
Keep the content up, mate
Cheers!
@@FootyAdventures welcome mate
another good one sam....a bit of useless trivia for you theres also a place called hampden park here in east sussex england
Thanks Clive! And cool, I'll have to visit!
@@FootyAdventures no idea if they have a footie team though
@@FootyAdventures
It's a suburb of Eastbourne, has its own rail station. It's a confusing line for Scots footy fans, Lewis, Glynde, Berwick, Hampden Park and Eastbourne.
There are two non league footy teams in Eastbourne, one shares it's pitch with cricket sometimes used by Sussex, a rare arrangement these days.
Eastbourne is unusual in that it's biggest sports venue isn't cricket, footy rugby or racing. It's the tennis complex.
Andrew Watson also played for bootle football club in bootle in Liverpool when bootle in Liverpool was the first Liverpool Derby against Everton but bootle dropped out of the football league and Liverpool football club took there place in the football league
@cathkinpark is worth following on twitter for interesting historical info.
Simon Weir, the actor made a great 12 min video of history of the three sites on you tube.
Third Lanark RV (rifle volunteers), played in the first Scottish cup in 1873
with Cathkin Park listed as home match venue.
Top vid Sam .... Very informative ...... We went to Hampden Park 25TH April 1970 .... Scotland 0 England 0 ..... Attendance 137,438 ....... It was the last game for England before they went to defend the world ....
Briliiant film Sam. Actually really good that you could that close to the bowling club - it is open access. A wonder of design from Ashley Rawson on the mural. Like I said the 3 Hampdens or as we are now saying 4 hampdens are the most important of all time. Glad you enjoyed it and we will get you over when lockdown is over and you can get close up to the mural and into the pavilion itself. If anyone wants to see the proving of the 1st Hampden in 2017, then click this link too. czcams.com/video/NZMSDFcFMY4/video.html. Enjoy.
Perfect, sounds great! Looking forward to it.
No pitch or posts at Cathkin Park now, I see. There has been on and off, but for some reason the City Council seem to have an aversion to allowing a football pitch there. It was - and would be - simply a park pitch, of course, but I think it would be appropriate for football still to be played there.
Nice
Thanks!
No problem mate what an amazing video
@@United_kingdom-Bloxburg.1221 glad you enjoyed! I hope to finally get inside hampden one day 🤣
Aye I hope mate
I grew up near hampden park
Can you go to bootle in Liverpool football ground because bootle and Everton were the first to football league clubs in Liverpool before Liverpool football club were a league football team and also Andrew Watson played for bootle football club as well

@@frasbo80 Ah nice, was about to fire across the link! Hope you enjoyed the Dundee video :)
You should go back to lesser Hampden. When you look across the ground you will see the old white farm building. I could be wrong but I believe it's the oldest changing rooms in the world.
I'll definitely mention that next time I go!
This farmhouse, which dates back to the 19th century, is believed by football historians to be the oldest existing football stadium building in the world. The changing rooms were closed in 2013 for safety reasons.

Cheers dude 🥃
Love the history parts of the game. The 5-1 is nice 🏴
Hopefully we can beat that in the summer and pump yeez 6-1
hopefully scotland can beat themselves, not much chance of beating another team, so beating themselves is all they can manage unless its winning at porridge guzzling
Plz go to Harrogate railway athletic fc 🙏

Cheers for watching my videos!
queens park were the owners untill a few years ago
Queens Park was an amateur club until last year with players only getting expenses and with clauses that if another club wanted to sign them they were free to leave. The club was formed in the late 1800's and was the defacto Scotland team and inspired England to form Corinthians now Corinthians Casuals as the defacto England side
Can you do a Hamilton accies video
They've featured in a few of my vids before, but yeah I'll do an Accies only vid soon!
good but cant be arsed with 10000 ads
Horrible stadium for watching football in though, fans are too far away from the pitch and should only be finals played there not semi finals as well. Great video again though 👏🏻👏🏻
Thank you, glad you enjoyed again!
You're bang on. From the back of one end, you're prob about 250m from the goal at the other end. That said, it's one of the most famous stadiums in world football. Maracana, Wembley, Nou Camp, Hampden. None come close to those four. History is history.
