    Hamilton Academical Football Club also known as the Accies are a Scottish Premiership side based just outside of Glasgow.
    They're fairly old and have an amazing history. They've been a Scottish Premiership (SPL) side for the past seven years or so and have played in two Scottish Cup finals. They lost those finals to Celtic FC and Rangers FC.
    Their big rivalry is Motherwell v Hamilton and these two contest the Lanarkshire Derby.

    Great video mate. My local team as a kid. I now live in 🇨🇦, but it was great to see. Last game I saw there was Hamilton vs Partick 2 years ago.

    Yes the Accies, the team everyone expects to be relegated each season, but somehow, someway, sneak their way out of the relegation zone by the end of the season. I fully expect the same ending this season, starting with the 4-1 thumping of Well.

  • @YeOldeHamiltonian
    @YeOldeHamiltonian 3 роки тому

    Great video as always, but a wee bit of history to top it up.
    The Club were left with £650,000 to build the new ground after the crooked dealings of the then Directors.
    Over £7 million "disappeared" from the sale of the old Douglas Park which was the real fraud.
    Thus,this is why we only have two Stands instead of four.
    The new ground was to have been based on Utrecht Stadium and further Overage money from The Retail Park would have paid for a retractable roof.
    As fans, we paid the wages of the players and had demonstrations, publicity stunts,meetings with the local Council and put forward a Fan for Parliament under the 'Accies Home Watson Away' banner in a By Election.
    The then good Owners were ousted and the charlatans ran the show until Ronnie McDonald took over.
    The rest is history.

    Alan Shields
    Hamilton
    South Lanarkshire.
    You started off this vlog in
    Bothwell Road Park that's just a long the road from where my Girlfriend works.
    Hamilton Academy & Hamilton College had nothing to do with Hamilton Academical it was former pupils from Hamilton Grammar that's closer to the town centre than New Douglas Park is that founded
    Hamilton Academical football club.
    Hamilton College is a private Education School they take in Children from as young as 6 mouths to 18 years of age.
    Most former public clubs went on to take up Rugby Union Hamilton Academical are the exception to the rule they are the only F.P Football club you are much more like to find Rugby Union club with F.P as in Former Pupils In Rugby Union
    Like Dundee High F.P that's a Rugby Union Club in Dundee for example.
    The Old Douglas Park was whare Sainsbury's now stands that is the exact location from what I have been told.
    The Norwegian League has mostly
    artificial pitches but not e very single club last season there was only two clubs that did not have artificial pitches.
    Personally I feel The Accies need to to a lot more to attract a larger fanbase as they dont have as meny fans in this area as they perhaps could have.
    Haveing lived most of my life
    close to Paisley Saint Mirren have much more of visible in the local community than The Accies are in Hamilton people know Hamilton more because of The Races Course than The Accies.
    Could you do a similar vlog about
    Dundee United next that would be interesting to a lot of people outside of Scotland I would think as they started out with some members from Dundee Harp they went to the wall some of the members then formed Dundee Hibernian.
