You have left out SV Austria Salzburg. That was the original name of Salzburg's major football club, until they have been bought by Red Bull in 2005 and thus have been completely rebranded, including their name, their logo and their colours.
While most local fans are pleased by the constant success their city's major club has been enjoying domestically, and being represented in European competitions every year, a group of more traditional fans were displeased with the re-branding and have since founded a football club, SV Austria Salzburg, which is currently playing 3rd tier football in Austria. Even though SV Austria Salzburg have reinstated the original club's name, logo and colours, they are on paper a football club that has been founded in 2006, while FC Red Bull Salzburg is the club that officially carries the "original" SV Austria Salzburg's legacy.
if only this channel was called "HITC Eights". maybe you should make a channel like that since you think something was "left out"
I would have thought they would have definitly featured in this.
@@A-Port-In-Any-Storm wow, such crispy humour combined with stylish sarcasm. One can see, that you didn’t start replying to comments on youtube yesterday.
The development of such clubs as "RB Townsname" is disgusting to me.
If "my" club, founded in 1891, would even consider such a thing, the board would be sacked immediatly.
So is that situation somewhat similar to the AFC Wimbledon/ MK Dons scenario?
Rest of the world: Left wing clubs vs Right Wing Clubs
Cyprus: takes it one step longer with Left Wing Football League vs Right Wing Football league
Can you explain?
@@johnnybravo9096 probably because Cyprus is split in half right now
@@johnnybravo9096 He means the creation of a left winged league after the expell of many players in 1948. It is mentioned at the beginning of the Omonia part.

I don't know about other countries, but Norway at least had not only left vs right (or rather workers or bourgeoisie) football leagues and FA, but all sports clubs (no matter if it was wrestling, boxing, football, whatever) organized into one of two rivalling national federations of sport. There were "The Norwegian Confederation of Sports" and "Workers Federation of Sports" until German occupation of Norway, where their cooperation in resistance to the Nazis paved the way to one single organization after the war.
Flamengo football emerged from an internal dispute within Fluminense.
Some disaffected players left Fluminense and created a football team at Flamengo club that before only disputed rowing championships (very popular at the beginning of the 20th century in Rio).
Regarding the curiosity about the name of Cruzeiro, Palmeiras, which has just won the Libertadores Cup, was also called Palestra Italia and had to change the name.
Day 1: Do a documentary on Guy Roux, a man who spent 44 years in total at AJ Auxerre as their manager
44 years Blimey
Speaking of 44,Alfie would also need to do a top 7 shortest Managerial stints.The
obvious one being Brian Clough and his 44 days at Leeds United.
@@DEATHSTARER Leroy Rosenior at Torquay United
what a legend he is in France, maybe the most liked manager ever with Jacquet. How much he did for french football is incredible
@@mofaizanuar8220 that was hilarious
I always enjoy when Alfie talks about Omonia.

Dear HITC Sevens. As a Fan of Hapoel Katamon I am greatly honored for this mention. However, I must correct your mistake (which you usually do not make in hundreds of videos). Hapoel did indeed beat Beitar 1-0 goal coming in the 16th minute, but it was however in a pre season compatition called "Toto Cup" which is a little like the Leage Cup in England. In the Premier League itself Beitar won 3-0 (sadly).
Ido Garfinkel
As a young Canadian, I would love if you could cover the new domestic league called the Canadian Premier League as well as the rest of Canada's bizarre football history in honour of this incredible generation of players
@808 🤣
Tell u what , u make that video and I'll sub.
@@voidmachine408 Why would people make a video about an absolutely fucking shit club that has no REAL passion inside the stadium?
That Life of Brian's "Splitters!" reference at the end was chef kiss worthy.
Love that you're so consistent with uploading great content
When FC United we’re in the NLN 2-3 years ago, I went to watch my local team play against them at Broadhurst Park in the league. Their stadium was extremely nice and modern, and there were about 1,400 fans in attendance with approx 150 of those being away fans including myself (this was a local derby though, as both teams are based in Manchester, so the attendance was possibly higher than usual). No doubt about it, FC Utd had class fans and even though my local team won 2-1 after an 83rd minute goal, their fans kept a great atmosphere going and they can’t be knocked for that.
I would love it if FCUM would post full match videos on their TH-cam channel. I'd follow the club. Same for AFC Liverpool. These days I'm finding the heart and soul of football lodged with clubs like these far more so than with the increasingly artificial Premier League.
You showed a picture of the wrong Palestra Italia [the stadium with samsung sponsorship], that's a picture of Palmeiras' stadium, not Cruzeiro, since they were both named Palestra italia before changing their names. Besides that, great video as always!
you never fail to entertain.
on a seriousness, it's fascinating how ingrained certain beliefs and values can be with football clubs. Thank you for covering some of the more extreme examples!
Yep im a United man but I'm very down to extend my support to FC United, sounds like a dope project
Hope fc united hire ole gunnar solksjaer as manager
@@gejamugamlatsoomanam7716 He would definitely be the best manager at that tier. He might not be quite cut out to manage a top 6 PL team, but he would outclass any alternatives to manager in FC United.
More likely, though, is that he'd manage Salford, as it is owned by his old buddies.
Dope?
When God was handing out names for a breakaway club, these fans must've been out taking a slash lol...
That’s why it always makes me laugh when rival fans say United fans only protest when we’re losing. I had friends in school who’s parents stopped going to United games and started supporting FC United back in like 2007 when we were at our peak😂
Doing an FC United career mode on fifa atm been fun so far
Just wanna say that imo, this is far and away the best football channel on YT. Thanks a lot
I think I've mentioned this in the comments before, but Belenenses, one of the only 5 Primeira Liga winners ever, has split from its football team (ran by the SAD), which remained in Primeira Liga, with no stadium, no logo, no name, etc, and the REAL Belenenses went on to the Lisbon-3rd division (the 7th and last tier of portuguese football for Lisbon-based clubs). You could've mentioned this perhaps. They are now in the 4th division, the first national league in the pyramid
They aren't really a protest club. It's still the same legal entity as before, except the club also now has full control of the football branch.
@@miguelmourato2559 yeah yeah I know, I just took the oportunity to try to convince Alfie into doing a video on the subject 😂 But you're right, they're still the same club.
@@miguel_aquatico I would be a great video though
after the shitshow that happened this weekend with bsad playing with 9 players against Benfica seems that now it's the best moment to talk about what is going on at Belenenses.
I'm sure it would be a great episode.
how did they relegate if they kept theire primeira league team
I felt such a massive smile appear over my face when you mentioned that Hapoel beat Beitar with a 94th minute winner. Great to hear.
This definitely needs a part two, great video!
I think you should do a video on if the long term manager is dead. I swear there is a manager sacking every 5 minutes this season.
In the prem definitely but below that long term managers are still very much a thing. As the clubs have less money they look for managers who can use 3 seasons to build a promotion winning side. Off the top of my head Coventry City springs to mind with mark robins and Joey Barton spent a lot of time at fleet wood though he was sacked
7 teams that were forced to play with less than 11 players in their XI
Examples:
B SAD x SL Benfica this weekend (B SAD played with only 9 players, 2 of them were GKs - Covid outbreak)
UD Leiria x Feirense 2011/12
Also, 7 goalkeepers forced to play as an outfield player
We need a part 2! Great video :)
Congratulations, Alfie, nice video as always!
Can't wait to see/hear your verdict on this year's Ballon D'or shenanigans and disgraceful robbery...
You should do a video on Derry City, Derry/Londonderry is still a part of Northern Ireland but they compete in the republic despite previously being hugely successful in Northern Ireland
I think Tifo football did a video on though I'd love to see Alfie take on this
Ah yes, the only place with 6 silent letters...
Hi Alfie! Great video as always! An idea I suggest for a long form video would be the demise of the Republic of Ireland national team and the national association (especially the finances) as a result of John Delaney. A lot of info on this got can be got from the book champagne football. Its incredible and not talked about outside Ireland. It has basically bankrupted the FAI.
feels weird without background music
In the last 3 seasons Colo-Colo went 2nd 16th 2nd. I think that would be an interesting video
How TF did they manage that?
@@heinzdoofenshmirtz8643 same way chelsea did
@@heinzdoofenshmirtz8643 I can't really describe it perfectly but it's a big club. Think of it if like Liverpool suddenly being forced into a relegation battle. Sanchez, Vidal, and Bravo all played there. Historically they're by far the most succesful club in the countries.
Irrelevant team. In an irrelevant league.
Whats your problem? Why does that even matter?
Video idea “PL teams ranked by how well they are run”
Dude United would finish last in the championship
@@BauhauF No, Newcastle would. United would finish rather low, I'll admit.
that sounds more like an HITC sport idea
"Well" could be interpreted quite a lot of different ways...
City would finish in the top 5 deffo
we loves these stories! we're buying a club as a community-owned club, so these are so inspiring
Surely an AFC Liverpool match with Jimmy from the pub as forward must be fun and worthy of a worlwide TV transmission
correction theres 4 Liverpool clubs! Liverpool fc, AFC Liverpool and South Liverpool fc, city of liverpool
I was genuinely unaware of several of these. Cheers Alfie!
great consistent content
Really interesting as always!
Beitar Nordya Jerusalem is a Beitar Jerusalem breakaway club for fans that felt sick with the violance and racism of the original club
Aka FC Hamas
@@charliezobel511 ok

@@1882osr not really as I'm no real lover of that mob either so calm yourself Beryl and just accept some of us don't actually pick a side when it comes to the Holy Land as they're both absolute nut jobs.
This is honestly really interesting, I bet some US sports fans wish this could happen out here
What about Clapton Community FC as a breakaway of Clapton FC over the clubs "chairman" Vince McBean raising prices and preventing any new members from joining the club, although they were meant to be a members run club. Since the split in 2018 Clapton Community FC have taken ownership of the Old spotted dog ground from Vince McBean, and despite being 2 levels below Clapton FC in the pyramid. CCFC get considerably higher crowds than CFC. Including 1,200 for the game that won them promotion from level 12-11, and just this past Sunday CCFC took over 400 fans to see their women's team knock out 3rd tier Hounslow Women's FC to become the first 7th tier women's club to make the 3rd round of the women's FA cup. Great video nonetheless.
As a fan from Cruzeiro, I 100% did not expect we in this video! A great moment, to be honest
7 PLAYERS TO SUCCESSFULLY RETURN AFTER SEEMING CAREER THREATENING INJURY (Whether incurred on the pitch or off) with respect to Chris Eriksen...and Aguero...
Santi Carzola
This is a great video. Maybe volume 2?
20 minutes of my day sorted 👍🏼
Alfie: "FC United of Manchester are now the largest fan-owned club in England"
Me, outraged: no they're not, Hearts are!!!
Me, after thinking about what I'd said for a few moments:
Oh yeah, he said in England, not the UK 🤦♂️
A hearts fan i see? 🇱🇻 ♥️
It's not even true if you only include England, because the number in the video is quite outdated. They no longer have 5,000 members (the number stands at 2,568 as of today, down from the peak at over 5,000 in 2016).
Also, their source is most likely an article called "List Of The Biggest Fan Owned Football Clubs In The World, Their Ownership And Net Worth", published last month by The Sports Grail, which (wrongly) states about FC United of Manchester:
"The club is owned by 5,000 of their members and are the largest supporter-owned football club in the United Kingdom by number of members."
@@Avi-ys8ox no not at all, I'm not even from Scotland for what its worth
honestly i live for his pronunciation of hebrew words it's amazing. great video as usual
As an Oldham fan I appreciate the shout out, clubs an absolute joke rn
That outro was brilliant 😂
(The video was pretty good too)
When Tifo and HITC release videos... what do I watch first 😂
HITC because they tend to be around the 20 minute mark. Then if you've got time, squeeze in a 10 minute Tifo video. Always watch the longer one first 👍
They don't exist today, but Sunderland Albion was a protest team, formed in 1888.
"Football without spray-painted slogans on bedsheets is O.K too"
Here’s a suggestion: do a video on sporting fingal fc, who in a span of just 4 years, won an FAI cup and competed in Europe. Would be very interesting.
Day 14: Best Players With Two Surnames XI
Really nice to mention Cruzeiro!
I’m glad his suggestion worked
I did ask Can you do a documentary on the afc Wimbledon on the nine promotions in eleven years, how they’re a fan own club and how they have a stadium in plough lane now.
The story of they lost the club, how the F A allowed that and won’t allow that anymore. 😊
We've literally all heard the story hundreds of times though
@@AJ-ct8om it’s a great club and hitc sevens insights will be good
@@balham5606 it would - if he didn't do what everyone else does and just bashes MK with it and doesn't focus on where Wimbledon failed. Everyone seems to overlook that they were effectively abandoned and nobody cared about them prior to the move - and prefer to focus on a weird narrative that they were just randomly taken over and moved 75 miles down the road for the hell of it
@@AJ-ct8om Milton Keynes are not a football club
I'm pretty sure he already did
Intriguing stuff!!!
FC United of Manchester played a match against Detroit City FC, was a great match a few yrs ago!
that life of brian clip at the end
15:07 Oh quite the contrary Alfie, I’m only familiar with the Yale Athletic because you had mentioned it a previous video! I actually don’t remember what video that was, but I do remember it had something to do with Brazilian football.
You've a good memory, Kozuki. I believe it was my documentary about Cruzeiro's crises and decline.
@@HITCSevens perhaps, but great job with the uploads mate. Got a bit nervous about the cut back of uploads, but I am growing used to enjoying the longer and more in depth videos, albeit begrudgingly at first 😆
Had to just stop the video when you said Bang-or. Turns out that is correct! My children were born in Bangor, Wales and I've always pronounced it wrong haha
One of my favorites!
If the Super League actually formed, I had a theory that there would have been a lot more protest clubs propping up all over the place in the early to mid 2020s.
We're not the Judean People's Front, We're the People's Front of Judea!
nice to see welsh football represented on this channel!
Imagine projecting 'Bahrain' onto the Arc De Triomphe, and misspelling it.
As someone who lives in North Wales I have been aware of the troubles in Bangor and also the pretty infamous criminals, The Vaughans.
Ladies and gentlement it has been done. Probably the first time a German TH-camr known for politics and football has successfully suggested a video about a political topic in football to an English TH-camr. This is very cursed and I love it.
Oh. And Day 1: Top 7 football clubs that have similar logos (FC Barcelona and Consolat Marseille, Benfica Lisbon and Hamm Benfica).
How on earth do you know about hamm benfica 😂
@@maxvigor7189 FIFA Manager is a powerful tool if used correctly. Wait until you learn about Kilia Kiel and El Hilal SC El Obeid XD
7 football clubs outside a major capital city that won the Copa Libertadories. Alfie has been ignoring this suggestion for over a year now.
You got it wrong with F.C. United, Alfie.
1. The green-and-gold campaign of “Love United, Hate Glazer” is from 2010. When F.C. United were founded in 2005, no Manchester United fans were using green and gold colours.
2. The club no longer has 5,000 members, far from it. According to their own website, membership stands at under 3,000 at the moment.
3. The move into Broadhurst Park did not occur until May 2015. 2005 was the year F.C. United were founded.
7 protest clubs who had more successful than the original clubs
Do a 7 best or worst premier league captains of all Time
cool video, but i missed Austria Salzburg. Much respect to all football fans giving everything for their loved clubs
4:26 CSKA Sofia crest quite looks similar to AFC Liverpool crest imo
Thank you for this. Time for me to buy a red star Paris jersey
HITCSevens, please do a video about the best XI in the Premier League since 1992 in each position e.g Schmeichel, Cech in goal, Neville, Azpilicueta, Walker at right back. It would be brilliant.
I actually thought of Azpilicueta to be the type of player, who is overlooked when praise is given. And that he have had a stable rising career throughout the years. He gets the job done, is my impression.
Did you mean Kasper, or his father Peter?
I would say: put Peter in starting 11, and Kasper on bench.
Or just rotate.
Should do a video for pheonix clubs too
SV has an interesting history with Barrow and Chester also.
As well as AFC Liverpool you've also got City Liverpool fc which is also owned by the fans
correction theres 4 Liverpool clubs! Liverpool fc, AFC Liverpool and South Liverpool fc, city of liverpool
Anyone else mildly disappointed when the name "Stavros" wasn't followed by "Flatley"?
Stavros "Ello Peeps'
Glad Oldham got a mention, just hope we can get a full length video on the situation sometime soon!
Writing all these names down for FM saves.
While I really enjoy these videos, the presenter really needs to enunciate that last word of each sentence. For some of the bits, I need to put on the CC to get that last word, such as the AFC Liverpool bit. But I'll keep watching, even with the CC on. Still interesting subject matter. Keep 'em coming!
With all the clubs from liverpool joining the football pyramid recently like the return of the popular south liverpool, city of liverpool fc with their big plans and the hard working lower breck fc, I do worry about the sustainability of afc liverpool especially when they don't have a ground of their own.
The Purps! Lovely initiative and ambitions they got!
@@jms9353 if they can build the ground they have planned then they could be knocking on the door of the football league in a few years
Video suggestion: Ranking the Seven best balloon d'Or winners.
It’s 150 years of rangers on 2022, a video about their history would be good.
Please make a video on the demise of Bangor City. My farther hails from Bangor, so I have always kept a close look on their results. They seem to be terribly run and I have been unable to find any decent information on what on earth is happening at the club. Within the last few years the club announced a partnership with Inter Milan and the majority of their players are Argentinian or Italian. They were recently managed by former Barnsley legend and Argentina U-20 captain Hugo Colace. Yet, in spite of all this, they cannot pay their players. What on earth is happening?
If not for the Life of Brian moment at the end, I would not have pressed "Like" or left this comment.... Great humour :D
Orlando Pirates of Namibia took it a step further by adopting the name abs badge of Orlando Pirates from South Africa. They’ve adopted the kit colours too. The only different thing they don’t have are the sponsors 😅
God-tier content

That conman vaughan also murdered Chester City FC, where we launched a phoenix club and currently in the conference north, having a poor season this year and sit 16th
As a fulham fan been to Chester a few times ,it’s unbelievable how fortunes can change in a few years ,
Who are the biggest bargains and flops of all time a video on that would be very good.
I Would like to just take a moment to say that you are my absolute favourite TH-camr however I see a severe lack of what on earth happend to Gefle IF, Assyriska or Syrianska All Swedish mid table allsvenskan clubs who has fallen greatly by Swedish standards to the third and fourth tier of Swedish football both are amateur leagues this fall happened in less then 5 years for all of them, I know that you might not even know about these clubs but I would really appreciate if you looked in to it.
Especially those 2 Assyric-Sweden clubs have had many promotions to get there. And many other clubs, who are similar, are doing well.
And yes, would be great to hear if it is internal turmoil, or whatever, that has caused the presumed downfall of Assyriska and Syrianska.
FC United of Manchester missed a chance at their ground name by not naming it New Trafford 😜
Their ground is based in the City of Manchester itself, not in Trafford, though.
i heard of afc Liverpool
i heard of Paris fc, i didn’t know of Paris fc protest club side 😊
i heard of the club red star Paris 😊
Could you make a video of other Paris clubs?
i heard of fc united of Manchester.
Biggest fan own club in England.
i didn’t know of that Israel club.
Bangor 1876 in wales get a mention
Cruzeiro from Brazil 😊
Ac omonia the team in Cyprus😊
Good video Alfie
Dear HITC Sevens,
Could you conisder doing a video outlines the differences between association football's "academies" and North American sport's "Minor Leagues" please?
Until he does (if he does--see my comments on the sub-Saharan African club Best XI), think of academies as basically high school athletics detached from school. A good North American analogue would be IMG Academy, and even then (feel free to correct me if I'm wrong, Alfie) IMG places much more emphasis on academics than their European counterparts
Honorable mention:
*AREMA FC* and *AREMA INDONESIA*
The cause Arema split in two because of the League competition was in turmoil on 2012 (the top league was split into two), Indonesian Football Federation (PSSI) legalised Indonesian Premier League as their "Legal" competition and the Indonesian Super League is way opposite, for the Club who joined ISL forced to move into IPL competition, the result Arema were play on 2 league (ISL and IPL), after IPL confirmed as the illegal leagues the ISL continue and the team who participate in it (IPL) were relegated to the 3rd division, and the funny thing is both AREMA were played on same pyramid football system, until this day they arguing who is the real AREMA and who is the impostor (some people say AREMA on the top flight was the real one, other people say the real AREMA is on the 3rd tier)
Did anyone notice that Bahrain was spelt wrong on the Arc de Triomphe? Or is that the name of a company? Glaring mistake if so haha!
Liked this video in protest of you telling us to downvote it

As a Man United fan, I was quite surprised that AFC Liverpool actually exists!
I knew it. And not even from UK. And not a fan of big clubs.
correction theres 4 Liverpool clubs! Liverpool fc, AFC Liverpool and South Liverpool fc, city of liverpool
I lived in Bangor and what happened to city was awful. They have been in slow decline since the sale of farrar road and built nantporth way outside of the town. Granted 1876 play further out of Bangor but that is mainly due to the uni ground is the nearest ground with the best standard.
Do a video about the current situation at Manchester United under the Glazers
Support fc united of Manchester is what i say
You said Cymru right! Yayyyy!!
