😲🤣 MEET THE MAN WHO BUILT A STAND IN HIS BACK GARDEN!!!
Спорт
I visited Camelon Juniors FC just outside of Falkirk and I discovered that a local fan had built a stand in his back garden to see into the football stadium. You don't get this at Ibrox or Celtic Park!

There was a guy on St. Annes Rd in Doncaster that built his own stand at the back of the old Belle Vue ground to watch Doncaster Rovers. It can still be seen on Google maps :)

If that little stand isn’t the epitome of smaller league and junior tier games, I’m not sure what would be. Still, seeing such a supportive crew of fans shows how much the local team means to fans. Great work as always.
Well done for highlighting and celebrating the joy that comes with enjoying football in lower league, junior level and none league! What a brilliant community asset such a club is.

When Camelon won the Junior Cup in 94-95 against Whitburn (my local team), I think the score was 2-0 to Camelon and it was played at Fir Park. Every game I went to support Whitburn, they won. I never made it to the final and they lost. I accept full responsibility for that. Sorry Whitburn 🙁
That little stand is the coolest thing ever! Hats off to the man.
Love lower league football. Looks like a great ground and the pitch looks fantastic! One of the local teams to me, a blokes back garden backs onto one of the stands and whilst he didnt build a stand, he can happily watch the game over his fence. Love to see it

Maybe one day!
Around Wrigley Field in Chicago (baseball) the owners of neighboring buildings built stands on top of their roofs in order to watch the game for free (and then to eventually charge others). The stands are still there and you can still catch a game from atop the rooftops across the street to this day.
The canal actually passes behind Firhill. Paddle the canoe from Hibs to Partick Thistle nil! I'd join you on my kayak, but I'm about a squillion years old. I'd happily sponsor you for that.
Nice! I love fishing, I love pies and a bit of footy. That is a nice ground, a little quirky. It looks well maintained and loved. Speaking as an Annan fan, I like the four sides! Great choice
The main football you tuber by far 👏
Great to see you made it along to Camelon Juniors, Sam. I was sitting with you at Stenny game other week telling you about what a great wee club they are, having supported them as a kid.
Great content👏 I seen a clip on tiktok and came over to watch it all. That club is well run, The pitch is superb, some clubs in the top league need to take note.

What a great channel Sam! I only discovered Footy Adventures today after spotting your Stenhousemuir video by chance. Already watched 5 of your videos and very well done. Love the interviews with the people involved with these small clubs, and seeing small grounds like Camelon Juniors is a real treat. Greetings from Australia.

Thanks so much mate I appreciate that. I’ve made over 750 videos from all over so lots to catch up on if you’ve got some spare time. I even started my channel in oz at Central Coast Mariners in 2019. Good times! All the best mate. Cheers
I made it in your video ahah got a photo with you at the end of the game lovely guy
In Germany we don't necessarily have stands on private grounds but something like houses right next to the smaller stadiums is absolutely normal. one example is the TSV Havelse in the northern germany 4th league - the regionalliga nord. There you can watch games from behind the goalside from the comfort of your own apartment if you wish xD
Great report of a very tidy lower league ground. You can stroll along the canal path from the Falkirk Wheel to get the best view of the stadium. Thanks for your excellent coverage of Scottish football
Sam I stay in Camelon, but on Tuesday night I hopped over to watch Kennoway Star Hearts, new ground for me. They literally play in the middle of a farm! Well worth a visit, cracking steak pie
Thats fucking class man.

I love this video Sam. I know it’s late but could you come to the Steins Thistle vs Cupar Hearts amateur Scottish cup semi final at the Falkirk Stadium tonight im a big fan ❤
Camelon have a SFA licence which isn't surprising with all the off pitch work that has been done.
Brilliant Sam. How do you find these places.
The stand....Brilliant!! 🤣🤣🤣
Cycled past there yesterday. Looks a cracking wee ground with a lovely pitch

Button vendor repping the Wombles. I was like... "wait I know that badge". Hope John Green is proud of me.
Can that guy not get one or two local Ultras into the smallest stand in Scotland?
Proud Kemlin boy here, chuffed to see this video!
I definitely wanna see you can know from wherever to wherever that sounds awesome. Grab a couple plants along the way. Maybe even a few pints
Buckie pie! Only in Scotland. Mad Dog hot dogs next! My mate has a flat overlooking Newlandsfield. He buys a season ticket though.

That was a cool video. Thanks
CRACKING LOOKING WEE STADIUM
Brilliant vid pal🎉
That man is a legend honestly. Imagine if that club ever became really successful. Surely they’d have to name a stand after that guy right?
Eden Park Auckland, which is New Zealand’s national/ biggest stadium. Back in the 80’s a man built a stand in his back garden, it seated roughly 50 people, and ironically was nicknamed the "scotsman stand". When Eden park was redeveloped for the 2011 rugby World Cup finals, this stands view was taken away. But, if you look closely, there is a small structure inside the ground, in much the same spot, which is clearly a small tribute to the original out of ground stand.
Absolutely fantastic ground and club Camelon. Glad you managed to visit. Alan Moore as manager is a brilliant guy as well

cool ground, really good pitch & that stand is sweet as 👏🏼🇳🇿
I went to watch the Boston Red Sox a few years back.. on the far side, the people in the flats have built their own viewing galleries… they charge thousands for people to sit in their front room. The Red Sox tried to build up the far stand to get more people in but they lost the court case as it would have stopped people in these apartments from watching the games. Only in America
Immaculate stadium/pitch. Fair play to everyone behind the scenes 👏👏👏
I left a comment a while back about visiting Camelon and glad you have from a larbert boy
This ground is the epitome of a great small club, fantastic
I'd watch the hell out of a canoeing from hibs to Ibrox video
Keep it up Sam❤
That little stand reminds me of the Chicago Cubs, some of the surrounding blocks of flats have little stands on the roof that look down into the ballpark.

Never seen something like this in my life 😂
I used to live in Camelon, and watched Camelon for 8 years, was at Motherwell when they beat Whitburn 2-1 to lift the Scottish Junior Cup, even East Stirling played there
Another great video Sam, but why doesn't the guy who built a stand in his own garden just pay at the gate and support the club financially ( or maybe he does?)
muy bonito estadio. se ha de ver espectacular verlo en vivo.
Ah man that stand is brilliant 👏🏻
did you get along to any of the junior cup semis?
That stand is class😂😂
I was brought up where that guys stand is in fairly gardens great memories
That guys jacket is trying to suffocate him 😂
nice video mate!
100% we need a video from that little stand
That man in the Wimbledon coat was right, that does look like a great non league ground. Maybe I'll visit one day, but it is 4 hours away!
Which footy app does Sam use?
A stand in his back garden, that’s epic 😊
That pitch is absolutely beautiful for a 7th tier Scottish with 5 matches remaining (at the time of filming)

The difference is, that Camelon spend money on their park. Dundee doesn't. All the talk of new stadium plans at Dundee is a sideshow and distraction by those in charge. You can clearly see they are not maintaining what is there.
Hope the poor guy doesn't get a knock from the council now asking for his building permit!🤣
Best wee stand in the world
You sound exactly like Max McCann (he is the tiktok guy that started Maxi's seasonings)
Are u coming to the Stenhousemuir cup lift
Went to see them play Whitburn a few month back... I didn't even see that stand there... I stood right in front of it second half as well! 👀🤣
a bodged-together makeshift stand at the bottom of your garden is living the dream
Camelon Juniors, the team who were indirectly responsible for me becoming a Celtic supporter. At primary school I saw a group of neds quizzing a boy with a red and white scarf. Q - Whit team dae ye support? ... A - Camelon Juniors! Q - Naw, we mean big team ... A - Liverpool ! Q - Naw, we mean Scoattish team ... A - Falkirk! Q - Naw, we mean Top Division Team ... A - [back to the red scarf theme] Aberdeen! WRONG ANSWER!!! ... So they beat him up - Hullo Hullo, no prizes for guessing what he was supposed to say.
It IS a lovely wee ground - but a Buckfast-pie - I dunno!!
Have you not done any northern league games.
You should get over to Tampa to watch Robbie Neilson
You should do the canoe from one match to another.
