Edinburgh is Scotland's capital city. It's also home to three football stadiums:
- Murrayfield - National Scottish Rugby Stadium
- Tynecastle - Hearts of Midlothian Football Club
- Easter Road - Hibernian Football Club
As well as looking around these stadiums in this video, I'll give you a tour of Edinburgh. We'll see the world famous Edinburgh castle and eat some haggis!
#Edinburgh #Hearts #Hibs
Where should I go next? Let me know below!
Clarence Park or Roker park (STOTFOLD stadium)

@Ciello Dominic 🇩🇪
@Ciello Dominic yeah would be cool!!
Come to ashton gate?
I love these videos! Edinburgh is such a beautiful city. I love how you took the time to do research about both clubs, because I definitely learned something new today🤝
Thanks Fergie! Yeah it's a nice place and theres a lot I didnt cover so a good excuse to go back 👍
The Jinglin Geordie pub which you passed on Fleshmarket Close was one of George Bests locals when he played for Hibs.
One time he failed to turn up for a match against Ayr United because he was in an Edinburgh bar(possibly the JG) all night with a French rugby player and Debbie Harry!
Good video, look forwarding to seeing more of them
I'll have to visit there!
Class that you went to Easter Road, and I suppose it's also good for lower league Scottish football to get some recognition too.
I hope that the lower leagues restart soon! Obviously its just the SPL atm but surely soon the smaller teams can restart
@@FootyAdventures He's making a joke of Hearts mate - calling them a lower league club! :-D
Jamie Hunter guess you’ve never seen us in a lower league than yous ya junkie
@@robbiemcmillan7138 Once you lot go bust that's all you'll have....memories!😂
@Jamie Hunter 😂😂😂
Visited in April 2004. Had a wonderful time. Thought I was dying. Scotland was on my bucket list. Not dead yet. May come back!
Looks like you had drone footage, no?
Hearts stadium entrance looks like a high school
That’s Jim Clydesdale for you 🤷🏼♂️
both of the clubs have really well-designed logos. and thanks for all the history pieces in the vid!
You're welcome Kyoo! Thanks for watching again I really enjoy seeing your comments! Two cool clubs in Edinburgh hopefully I can see them play soon 😀
Footy Adventures i think some of the clubs in epl trying to get the fans back into the stadium starting next season. hopefully, all of us can soon!
@@lilkwan252 yeah its great news! ⚽️🔜
Agreed both clubs Crests are fantastic I would go so far to say
Hibernian's current Crest is one of
The very best in Europe only second in my view tothat of
Lokamotiv Moscow Hibernian have had lots of different Crests down though the years they have struggled with there Identity somewhat down though The centurys sometimes wanting to shy away from being associated with being an Irish Catholic club & wanting to be seen as a club representing The Leith district of Edinburgh & sometime the entire city at this time with there
Current club crest I feel they have got the balance right.
In Edinburgh in terms of both Hibernian & Hearts you have people how will support the club they live closest to but for others it's down to religion & politics whare in Glasgow it's all down to religion & Politics.
Hibernian are very expensive tickets wise Hearts have the cheaper ticket prices per game.
The owner of Hibernian Sir Tom Farmer is extremely tight fisted money wise & a very bitter Catholic
I ued to know someone that had worked for him in the past.
Alan Fox Tom Farmer doesn’t own Hibs any more.
I like Easter Road. Like going to Homebase on a Tuesday. Tranquil.
There’s actually another stadium right behind Murrayfield that is being built for Edinburgh rugby to play in. They currently play on the main pitch but only get around 5000 fans in, so you can imagine the atmosphere is lacking in that huge stadium
Would love to go to these stadiums when fans are allowed back in! Food looked good 😍
🏴🔜👌
Mon the hi bees 🇳🇬🍀🏴
Hope you enjoyed the vid mate 😊👍
Ye a did thanks
Alan Shields
Hamilton
South Lanarkshire
Scotland .
Hopefully you enjoyed your trip to
Auld Reekie home to in my personal view the 3 best stadiums in all of Scotland in terms of atmosphere
Heart of Midlothian F.C actually take there name from a dance club that in turn
took it's name from
The Heart of Mid-Lothian a novel buy Sir Walter Scott the founders of Heart of Midlothian F.being members of the dance club originally how later went on to found the football club.
You should of also visted The War Memorial to McCrae's Battalion
that fought in the first World War
Formed as a Pals Battalion buy 16 Hearts players 150 Hibernian fans also joined The Battalion & 7 Raith Rovers players & a number of other players from various clubs in the East of Scotland but The Hearts players started it all in 1914
The Memorial is near Haymarket Station.
Hibernian whare found in
The Cowgate from a Catholic Y.M.C.A buy a local Priest.
George Best had a spell as a Hibernian player.
Both Club always give young players
oppurtunitys to play & have very good youth teams & always play a very swashbuckling style of football that is pleaseing to the eye.
Hopefully in the future when fans are allowed back in to stadiums in Scotland you can take in a match of one or both of the Edinburgh clubs.
The Hearts club Anthem was actually
Wrighten buy a Saint Mirren fan.
Hi Alan, I always enjoy your comments and always learn something new! The fact I didn't visit the memorial gives me all the more reason to go back and film more content! When I'm able to do games/tours I'll include that in the video. They're certainly two big clubs and I can't wait to see them play. Thanks mate, more videos coming soon!
@@FootyAdventures
Honestly Atmosphere wise you cant knock both Edinburgh clubs.
Both have supporters club in Glasgow.
Hibernian are a bit more pricey ticket wise per game.
Always had a soft spot for Hearts more because of the name than anything else but always enjoyed watching both clubs play.
@@alanfox691 nice I look forward to scottish football reopening their gates for fans 😊
Spent my summers on holidays in site hill in Edinburgh at my aunts commonwealth pool 🏊♂️👍🏻high board diving , er no thanks 😂all her family hearts except one hibs good laugh in 88 and 89 summer, St. Andrews not far either had family there to 👍🏻🇬🇧👍🏻🏴
Dont get me wrong you were never fat mate but you seem a lot leaner in your recent videos - you been hitting the gym ?
Probably just the initial lockdown beers!
Decent video mate and you are a good presenter but unless you can visit inside the stadiums then your content will always be limited. On a side note, admit it, you thought Tynecastle looked like a high school? ;-)
You'll always find a warm welcome at Easter Road
Great! Love that
My friend got assaulted at eater road
Hibs cany fill there stadium ... hearts can pmsl.
@@ryanhowes6375 no, hearts can’t either
Never score a lot of goals between them so Murrayfield they may get more trys than goals shame to say for Edinburgh
4:04 got arrested right about where those phone boxes are. My mate climbed a temporary flag pole to steal the NZ flag (we're both Kiwis) we were hammed, next thing 2 cops just walked up, pretty funny experience, cops were good guys. We got locked up for the night a let out late the next day hungover and no idea where we were hahahahaha memories... well some hazy ones.
Love Edinburgh have been good is amazing too
My guy!!! This is my first watch of your page. I feel like a proud papa watching you grow and kick ass. All the best mate! Link up next time I’m in the UK
Here he is! Yeah man we'll meet up for sure! Covid is so annoying but as soon as you're back this way let me know. Miss you mate 🏴🤝🇨🇦
Love this one 🏴 💙! I think is my fav from you so far 💪💯
Thanks mate! I just hope my videos improve as I go so I'm happy to hear that 😀
You were right about Hearts never spending a £1m on a player, crazy to think they splashed out £750k in 1988 to bring back John Robertson and then £750k in 1990 to sign Derek Ferguson. In today's world those deals would cost £15m to £20m which is way over what we could ever pay. Good video though, 1st time I've come across your channel 👍
Oh yeah I suppose in those days it was a lot, but compared to now that wouldn't get you much! Pretty crazy to think in this day and age they still haven't splashed the cash! Thanks for the comment and watching my video. Really appreciate it :)
I think the closest to the £1m was Mirsad Bešlija, a Romanov signing from Genk in January 2006 for around £900,000.
What about Meadowbank?
I have 2 new Edinburgh videos coming this week funnily enough!
Wrong, hibs first kit was all white. Then we wore the hoops for two years and then all green and then in the 20s white sleeves.
Dude you're brilliant I love your content and understand you got one bad game at tynie last season but c'mon let's be honest hearts are the best team in Scotland now for all neutrals and playing the way we are. The business we are doing.. if it continues the same way we are up rangers arse in 2 seasons
I get to know place I never knew about!👏. Mostly because I have never been to europe. Hope too someday !
Hey mate, thanks for watching! Appreciate the support! Glad you learned a bit about Edinburgh :)
Footy Adventures i need to go explore europe next summer. Based on your video i think ill love it !
@@TacticalManager Yeah man, get over here!
I thought the Hibs stadium looked quite ugly to be honest and bright green uniform wasn’t pretty!
Fair enough mate. I liked it!
So your telling me you liked a hospital more than a football stand? Even tho you knew well right what you were watching😂
@@Thesaviour222 I thought the Hibs Stadium looked dated and ugly and that washed out Green color is nasty, just my opinion
Class as always!
Thank you mate! 🤝
☘️Hibs have obvioulsy copied Celtic with the green and the Irish theme. I suppose being a copycat is a compliment to us. Hail! Hail! COYBIG ☘️🇮🇪🏆⚽️🌈🇮🇪☘️
Actually, you’ll find that we owe Hibs thanks for supporting us in our formative years.
We used many of their players, so, have a wee look, the Hibs history is interesting.
Celtic were formed some 13 years after Hibs.
James Connolly was reputedly a Hibs fan bs k in the day too.
So, I wouldn’t call Hibs copycats, Penelope lol….
A lot of history there, being honest.
So, as a Celtic supporter, I’ll always have a soft spot for the club.
🔥💥 great video mate
Thanks mate appreciate that
I saw Hearts play at Murrayfield v Aberdeen
SFA should join forces with the Rugby, Murrayfield is by far a better stadium..Hampden is a dump and Murrayfield is barely used. Tynecastle is one of if not thee best stadium in Scotland.
My grandad had a pub in leith but was a massive hearts fan. He was hard as nails too 😃
Hearts have never officially spent over £850k on a player but probably have in a round about way during the mid 00s when certain players were being signed to a Lithuanian team and then immediately 'loaned' to us. Also, the fee for Mauricio Pinilla from Sporting was never disclosed but I'd struggle to believe it was less than £1m.
Oh cool fair enough. Good to know! Cheers for watching mate
How much was that played from a former yugoslav country I forget the name.
@@andym28 Beslija? £850k.
Robbo not £750g
Hibs get their name from hibernate. Quite ironic as they put anyone to sleep. The Romans did names Ireland after that as they thought it was cold and everything just hibernated.
Quite ironic and completely inaccurate lol
Ayyyy! At the start in front of BT Murrayfield! Been to Murrayfield to watch Scotland games! COME ON SCOTLAND!!!!
Tynecastle is great atmosphere..
I cant wait til fans can go back! 🔜⚽️
No it’s not you’ll get about 10,000 fans not that your at the championship you could hear a pin drop mon the hibs 🇳🇬🇳🇬
ShanZ shut up we had a higher attendance last year loooooool
Qiari no you fucking didn’t the only time you could hear fans was when hibs where there all you could hear is the hibs fans when we beat you 0-2 Hearts are terrible just take it
ShanZ ur clearly 10 years old lol, hearts have the better fans. 3-1.
Great vid bud 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Have been to Murrayfield to see the All Blacks play, I regret not staying longer to see Hearts play.
Good excuse to come back again mate!
@@FootyAdventures One of these days. In fact I had a bucket list dream, and that was to visit every Premier League, Championship, League 1 and 2 ground in the UK. I can't see it happening though, but I'll get to a few.
You missed out on a spiritual experience...
Class vid and cheers fae the mention at the beginnin
Thanks mate! And no worries 😀
I watch your videos in Canada and I'd like to thank you so much for all your hard work and History lessons about lower league football. Keep up the great work 👍 .
Should look deep into it and see how mental it is where money is concerned here mate - our game is being used as a cash cow there is more money than gets shared out
Wow! That's such a shock to me!
Nice 1. Just noticed this.
Could I just say at this point Partick Thistle have never signed a player for 1 million also. We wait until they're useless diddies. Mon the Hearts
Do East fife /Cowdenbeath/kelty hearts
Coming soon mate :)
Quality video mate, class content as always 👊
Thanks mate! 👌
Footy Adventures No worries bro 🤙🏻
Hibees hibees hibees 😁
🏴👏👌
Did the "Edinburgh Fringe" many years ago, what an experience.
HIBEES🇮🇪☘️
Love it. One of the Edinburgh suggestions you put up at the start was mine 👍🏼😂.
Ah nice! I'm glad you noticed 😀 thanks for the suggestion! Any other suggestions for videos you'd like to see?
@@FootyAdventures been trying to think but you've been everywhere I can think of 😂. Was going to say Valencia but just seen you've been there as well. Went there back in November a couple years back, did nothing but rain the whole 5 days 😫.
@@NicholasEV1986 ah that's such a shame! Weather when I went in January was so nice 😎 I've got the Newcastle stadium tour coming soon 🏟👍
Great video. I think £700 000 for Ulises De La Cruz is our record signing. He was mediocre, with the exception of a screamer he scored against Hearts. Graham Taylor's Villa then spent 2 million on him, for reasons which have never been revealed. I had no idea that Edinburgh is known as the Athens of the North.
Thanks mate! Glad you enjoyed and thanks for the info 🙌
As a Falkirk FC fan (someone has to be lol) Harts and Hibs are feeder clubs just like us but for the bigger teams. They find young talent from the lower leagues, train them up and sell them on for profit.
@@0KeepRockin0 Absolutely. I think almost every club is a stepping stone. Even celtic have been a feeder club to Southampton for years now. Southampton to spurs, spurs to Barcelona. Barcelona and Madrid were the only apex predators, although now some English clubs arguably are. It was inevitable that Suarez would outgrow Liverpool seven years ago, but Van Dijk may not see Barcelona as a promotion.
Porteous is the next player who will leave Hibs if he's going to fill his boots; he may be world-class one day.
I believe Athens of the North stems from the Calton Hill pillar structure that was in-completed due to a shortage in finance many, many years back.
@@willbee6785 not just because that looks like the acropolis but like ancient Athens it wasn't finished.
The one sided acropolis thing is known as Scotland's national monument and Edinburgh's disgrace, which is quite ironic as that side was finished because the citizens of Edinburgh paid for it to be completed. It should be known as Scotland's disgrace as the country couldn't finance it's completion due to Scotland going bankrupt due to the Darien project which lead to the union with England.
Done a good job there, was waiting for you to go to Mary Kings Close that will spook you out, canny wait for your visit to the old grey toon
Glad you enjoyed! Where's that mate??
@@FootyAdventures dunfermline
@@brianmurray5488 ah cool yep that's on the list!
Went to a Burns night in a large Edinburgh hotel back in the 90s absolutely great time. Had haggis, neeps and taties lovely then following day had haggis for breakfast.
Sounds great!
amazing..
Thanks veninda!
U need to go too tyny when football back on
Defo!!!
GGTTH 💚
Didn't even give the Piper a quid lol. Great video again bud
Nice video mate! Nice 2 grounds, hopefully there'll be games where fans are back in them soon, nice city too!
Thanks mate, yeah at the very least I hope Scotland can restart stadium tours soon. They're still not allowed up here!
great video as per mate
Thanks man glad you enjoyed
you missed Edinburgh city fc
Great video.
Thanks!
Do Dundee and Angus
Dundee coming VERY soon!
Also Dundee Utd used to be called Dundee hibs
Yep, so they did! Just researching Dundee now for a video coming soon
Footy Adventures there’s a “big team” & “wee team” in Dundee I’ll leave to you to announce which is which 🤪🤪🖤🧡🖤🧡
Was there a reason why you didn't spend more time at tynecastle than Easter road?
Tynecastle is surrounded by houses, other than the main stand you can't near the other stands.
👌👌
😎😎
Great video as usual.
👏👏👏
😀😀😀
😀👍
Thanks 👌👍
Bagpipes..
THEY HAVE SOENT OVER 1MIL
When???
@@FootyAdventures Just the usual deluded Hearts fan mate!
@@FootyAdventures Hearts have spent over £1m twice. £1.35 for John Robertson from Newcastle in 89, and £1.8 for Mirsad Beslija from Genk in 06.
@@LunarJim69 he's right though. John Robertson was bought back from Newcastle for 1.35m.
Ever heard of him?
@@CraigHamil fair enough! Cheers for the info!.
Really good video dying to go the both of the stadiums in the video being a rangers fan I just like waking around them even though I hate the clubs 🤣🤣
Thanks mate! It's good to go to new stadiums even if it's your rivals :D Cheers for watching!
No problem always watch Scottish football stuff 🤣
@@rileybuilds2817 nice more coming soon 😊🔜⚽️
btw the mountain that Edinburgh castle sits on isn’t a distinct volcano, it’s actually Arthur’s seat that is.
Actually the castle is built on an instinct volcano too
"Distinct" lol, "instinct" lol ... Oh an Arthurs seat is an extinct volcano, where as Edinburgh castle is actually a volcanic plug, formed by a volcano that has long since eroded away.
Yup, a ( hopefully) extinct volcano it is, there’s a fault line running through Edinburgh
Great vid. GGTTH 💚
Thanks mate!
Hearts entrance looks like a supermarket entrance
Makes Easter Road look like a shitehole to be fair! 🤣
Easter Road looks like it was built by lego.
Hibees 💚💚
Hope you enjoyed the video mate! I really wish stadium tours and games open to fans soon! 🙏
@@FootyAdventures I'm currently in Estonia to watch 4 games, did 3 yesterday and I've got one today. I'm that desperate 😂
@@tombudge2491 I've been seriously considering flying out to that part of the world to start making some content! Hows the quality of football?
@@FootyAdventures The quality isn't the best but you get some high scoring games, stadiums are also very basic but im just happy to be watching football, its also very cheap and affordable here too.
@@tombudge2491 ah nice. Well yeah it's on my list anyway. Hopefully I can get out there soon 😊
Your acts are way off, the football club has absolutely nothing to do with the tolbooth or the heart of midlothian crest outside. They were formed in an old dance hall.
Edinburgh is a stunning city, hearts stadium looks like a call centre from the outside imo. Hibs looks like celtic park.
Tynecastle looks smaller than Easter Road because it's tucked in behind all the old buildings in Gorgie whereas the area around Easter Road is a little more open. I'd say from inside, Tynecastle is without a doubt the nicer stadium of the two. Very steep stands that sit right on top of the pitch, symmetry and consistency in the architecture, especially now with their new main stand.
Some of the stands in Easter Road have 2 tiers and I suppose it has a certain charm in that all the stands are a little different and mismatched. It has a nice "traditional" stadium feel with the external green support beams, but I suppose the outside is much easier to see than Tyencastle.
You should go back up for a visit when the stadium tours are back up and running so you can get a real idea of the clubs and their respective history.
I know you appreciate trivia, so here's a tidbit for you: Hearts have won more Edinburgh Derbies at both Tynecastle and Easter Road.
Ah cool, that's a good bit of trivia! I cant wait for stadium tours to restart to be honest. I dream of that day!!!
Tynecastle looks smaller than Easter road because it is smaller lol ,
Easter road is by far the better stadium, for atmosphere, and also it used by the Scottish national team occasionally
Tyncastle looks smaller ?
That's because it IS smaller
Easter Road is so much nicer than Tyncastle, or the pink bus shelter as its known
Easter Road is the only UEFA compliant stadium in Edinburgh
@@gerryhiggins8179 nah your facts are a bit outdated there mate. Or wait, did Hearts play their Europa Conference group games at Murrayfield? I can't remember it was so long ago...
@@CraigHamil 100% correct, and fact checked mate
Mon the jam tarts
Best nickname in football that!
Footy Adventures yes
I’m from Edinburgh and I know hearts history and future they haven’t bought a player for over 1 million pounds
Cool thanks for confirming!
I remember when Duff bought the Hibs lock stock and barrel for £800,000.
Excellent video mate, mon the JTs
Thank you!!
Btw the a million pound one is fake
I’ve been to Edinburgh I pass Edinburgh City on the train and Hibernian FC (I’m not a fan of them) my first Scottish club I visited was Heart of Midlothian (my favourite Scottish Club my second Scottish club is Celtic FC reason why Heart FC was because at the time my mum was in Edinburgh for the day and I asked her for a joke to get me a Hearts FC shirt I was unable to be in Scotland as I was seeing a Sunderland game which we won against Wolverhampton Wanderers I got home to a Hearts FC Shirt which had a Lithuanian bank as its sponsor which went bust and was during the Romanov era he was a corrupt businessman who signed failed foreigners some of which succeeded and ended up in England but Thanks to Ann Budge they ended up on a revival I prefer Hearts FC over Hibernian FC
