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.

Cheers! Yeah the Accies have done well the past few years. Would like to see a match at their ground at some point!

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.

Mon The Accies

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.

Every fan is sick to the back teeth with the old firm, LOL. I've never been to New Douglas; I remember the old stadium and their most famous fan Fergie, Who used to stand behind the goal and swear.

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.
