For many people outside the UK (certainly in the case of a lot of us Americans), it is difficult to understand the depth and complexity of Association Football, let alone its long history there. There are some similarities between the structure of AF and that of Major League Baseball, with the rather considerable exception of relegation - I can *promise* you that the concept of relegation would never enter the minds of any sports franchise owner in America, mainly because no one wants to imagine the New York Mets or Baltimore Orioles suddenly playing AAA-level league teams after a particularly bad season. I personally find that concept honestly amazing and one of the most fascinating aspects of AF - if the NFL played with a relegation system, the Cincinnati Bengals would currently be in danger of being dropped as they are winless thus far in the season. In typical American fashion (well-intentioned concepts poorly thought out), we use draft systems that permit the worst teams an opportunity to pick the best available talent each year to try to give some balance and parity to the leagues - sadly there are holes in that concept, like teams "tanking" (intentionally losing for a better draft position on the premise the rebuilt team will be able to compete right away), or teams like New England who just cheat (getting caught repeatedly) and don't give a shit. The most amusing aspect of the recent trend of teams tanking has been how incredibly pathetic most of those front offices were in their attempts to rebuild - the Miami Dolphins (who pretty much started the season with people *expecting* them to tank) have already given away proven talent on several occasions for future draft picks, yet have (amazingly) won a couple games in spite of this. Meanwhile, the aforementioned Cincinnati Bengals entered the season with much higher expectations, don't seem to be tanking and yet they have plucked defeat from the jaws of victory at every turn. The Indianapolis Colts, whose franchise quarterback retired on the night of their last preseason game, are still fighting for a playoff birth in spite of that considerable handicap - I suppose I bring that up with some pride, given I'm a fan of that squad and a lot of folks might have understood if they had just packed it in after that kind of news. Meanwhile, teams in Cleveland (Browns 2.0) & Phoenix (Arizona Cardinals) have been "rebuilding" for so long that they never truly seem built at any juncture - in the case of the Cardinals there are brief flashes of greatness separated by decades of despair, while the Browns have been mired in mediocrity for so long now that a season winning percentage of .500 would be considered a benchmark moment for the franchise. Point being, I suppose, that regardless of what approach they take, it still requires club management with live brain cells to build or rebuild teams. Folks still seem to be marveling over Leicester City a couple years after their surprise championship, and in my mind that is a feather in the FA's cap.

@@timvella1817 That comment was 4 years ago when Notts County were in the National league. It was correct at the time of writing. County are now the oldest again since promotion recently
@@mrfozz3742 There is no documentation to back up the 1863 claim. The oldest report concerning Stoke is 1868 I think you will find that the FA back up the the 1868 date.
I reported for Hallam in the mid 2000s when they were in the NCEL Premier in my early teens. Good rivalry with 'Club' aka Sheffield FC back then. Hallam's Sandygate is the oldest football ground in the world.
Stoke is older than Nottingham Forest, although some disputed their formation year. And Notts Co still a professional club so they should be still the oldest professional club in the world.
Association Football - like the presenter you are using Association Football & Football interchangeably, but Melbourne Football Club is not only the older professional football club in the world, what is name called Australian Rules Football is the original game of football from 1858. As alluded to here, Cambridge Rules and Sheffield Rules were never officially called Association Football whereas Football in Melbourne (and can see the original documents at the MCG Museum of Sport) did call it football.
Wolverhampton Wanderers f.c founded 1877, initial member of FA league and always in the top flight leagues, initiated in '50s inter European club matches, national side captain , multiple fa cup wins and today still at very top of epl! Nuff said , Wolves are the oldest and the Best! Go old gold and black!

Stoke City are not one of the oldest, their stated age is factually - and proven - incorrect. They formed in the 20th Century. Nottingham Forest are an older side, the oldest currently in the English Football league.
The EFL did dispute the claim that Stoke were formed in 1863, and confirmed that Nottingham Forest took the title of oldest football league club from Notts County following the Magpies relegation: www.nottinghamforest.news/2019/05/10/nottingham-forest-officially-confirmed-as-the-football-leagues-oldest-club/
The team pictured at 5:58 is not Sheffield FC but Sheffield United FC and the large gentleman on the front row is Fatty Foulke. Check out his Wikipedia page, it uses the same photo.
A thoroughly interesting piece, but "football" covers a great many codes and I'm sure that clubs formed in the 1860s were not what would be classed as association clubs. Between 1863 (founding of the FA) and 1871 (founding of the RFU) clubs would play a hybrid of the codes. For instance Glasgow clubs Queen's Park and Thistle played in the late 1860s and scores were determined through touchdowns and kicks at goal.
Stoke shouldn't be on this list. An EFL Spokesman confirmed that Nottingham Forest are the oldest EFL club not Stoke City due to the lack of evidence regarding Stoke City's claims. In the words of football historian Mark Metcalf. “Official records show that a club known as Stoke Ramblers was formed in October 1868 when they played their first game. “That club later merged with Stoke Victoria Cricket Club and eventually became Stoke City. “Basically, it means that Nottingham Forest are the second-oldest club in the top four divisions and will become the oldest if Notts County are relegated.” All of this can be found after like 5 minutes of research lads.
I mean, that is essentially what you do. It's mostly because everything gets broken down because there are so many teams. Like the vanarama national league north and south. If it was just one division they'd have 40+ teams. And that is only going down 5 levels.
I think you’ll find County aren’t in the fucking football league and read this www.google.co.uk/amp/s/www.nottinghampost.com/sport/football/football-news/efl-confirm-nottingham-forest-now-2850883.amp
That depends on of the definition of a stadium. Everton left Anfield in 1892 so Anfield is older than Goodison, but Anfield was earth embankments with a fence around it while Goodison was the first purpose build football stadium in existence. The irony being that Anfield is now a 55'000 capacity modern stadium while Goodison still has 2 stands designed by Archie Leitch. If you look for any of his work ( Villa Park, Anfield, Old Trafford etc) you'll soon get an idea of which ones are still in use today.
Apparently it's Bramal lane , which would make sense as Sheffield FC did play there in 1862. Again though , I can't say how much of an actual stadium it was then by our definition today.
Not sure about Notts County's colours influencing Juventus. The Italians played an absurdly named world cup around 1908 against a team from West Auckland Town who were given a set of Newcastle shirts when that team declined to go to Turin
Could you make one about the oldest teams outside of Engeland? Because all the oldest teams in the world are all english which makes perfect sence but still haha

Apparently it's Bramal lane , which would make sense as Sheffield FC did play there in 1862. Again though , I can't say how much of an actual stadium it was then by our definition today.
Deepdale is officially the oldest ground in the world that's still in use by a proffessional club......
Wrexham made it in a video madness
Not sure about Notts County's colours influencing Juventus. The Italians played an absurdly named world cup around 1908 against a team from West Auckland Town who were given a set of Newcastle shirts when that team declined to go to Turin
Sheffield Fc were once the number 1 team in the world 😳
Renton FC and Dumbarton FC were world Champions in the late 1880s, fact.
Melbourne Demons,1858,the World’s oldest club,Australian Rules team,they just won their first premiership since 1964.
What's that got to do with it? It's a different sport.
@@waltercodbollocks3175 yeah and Sheffield FC when founded were playing Sheffield Rules Football which is not association football
I am just wondering who did the oldest club play against until the second oldest club was formed. Vs random guys?
Watch again - he tells you.
I think the first club to named as such was Edinburgh Football Club.
5:30 that is a big one
Could you make one about the oldest teams outside of Engeland? Because all the oldest teams in the world are all english which makes perfect sence but still haha
Wanderers est. 1859? although reformed in 2009, still considered the same club)
It is interesting to see the first football club was formed by cricketers ..
A lot of them were, Hallam FC (1860), Sheffield Wednesday FC (1867) and Sheffield United FC (1889) were also formed more or less the same way.
You need to update ... Palace have proved the link to the earlier club .... same ground same owners .... keep playing cricket but couldn't do football until the new football ground was built but did play friendly games..
England’s squad for the 2007 u17 World Cup, where are they now
imagine being an organised club formed years before any other club. what you gonna do before the other teams started.
Be the best in the world
There's only one team missing here 😉 that's Crystal Palace, but because this video was made prior to our announcement I'll let you off 👍
Missed worksop town fc 4th oldest football club 1861!
There have been a lot of cold and rainy Teusday nights in Stoke😲
Can you do one of these about teams that are currently in the football league (only down to league 2)
I'm now a Cambridge and Tottenham fan.-)
I'm still a Stoke fan.
You need to change your videos name to Oldest Association Football Clubs. Australia has Melbourne Football Club Est 1957 but Australian Rules Football is played.
1858.
@@pauljarvis446, which is funny because when I was a kid I had a poster that said 1856. Geelong was the same. 40 years later maybe they have all agreed on a year.
Do Current 1 man national teams, with 1 amazing players and the others kinda or very bad.
Would definitely put Chatvetadze and Georgia on this list
@@williamfortescue9850 Egypt, Denmark, Poland, Wales
I know this isn't a 7 list but can you fo a best club in every county thanks :)
I'd always thought that Corinthians (UK) were one of the oldest. I guess not. 🤔
late 1880s. No longer existing anyway, the merged with Casuals FC.
kilmarnock fc were formed in 1869.
There is evidence Chesterfield were formed at least as early as 1863
Do the 7 best teams created after 2000
Notts County is NOT the oldest 'football' Profesional football club in the world.
It's actually Melbourne FC, based in Australia who were formed in 1858
Wrong sport mate.
@@michealflaithbheartaigh4139
To avoid confusion it should be called by its correct name, Association Football.
@@michealflaithbheartaigh4139 then Sheffield FC should not be on this list either since they were playing something closer Aussie or Gaelic rules
And the fsct that Australian Football rules was codified before association football
Wrong, you need to read the Sheffield rules, they made the civilized game you see today.@@downnice95
How can an Australian club be the oldest club in the world? Football started in England.

Melbourne Football Club was established in 1858.

Where’s Worksop Town?
Sheffield United didn't officially start playing football until 1889.
However we did form from the cricket club that invented football as a way to keep fit in the winter when there was no cricket.
Wrong
SUFC did not form Sheffield Cricket Club in 1855 I'm afraid

Out of interest, are Wrexham still Professional, as they have been out the EFL for so long
Well according to new reports forest are classed as the oldest football club in the league
@@andyjacques1009 its not on about the oldest in the league though its about the oldest clubs

Surley this list should be when they were formed/merged not when they played their first game?
