Football is officially back! With France now allowing up to 5000 spectators back in stadiums for sporting events – socially distanced, masked, and sanitised of course – I thought I’d go and see what it’s like to watch a match under pandemic conditions. So on Monday night I popped along to my local team, Red Star FC, who also happen to be the oldest team in Paris, to see them take on the mighty Bastia. And it turned out to be quite a game…

Hi everyone. If you like extreme closeups of rusty railings then oh boy THIS is the video for you. To everyone else… er yeah sorry about that 🙂
– You can see all the goals from this game, without railings, in the official highlights: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Ik-amyhXoc
– The official FIFA channel has a great little video with interviews & more about the story of the club: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mGFTRqfnyIE
Thank you!
I want to visit them now for the authentic experience and real community spirit which you don't have at big clubs. 🗼⚽
Red Star also prides itself in being multicultural and progressive. Probably the coolest football club in France.
There's a small club in Zurich by the name of FC Red Star Zurich. They play im white and green.
I have previously got annoying habit (according to the wife) of travelling to certain holiday destinations to get a local football club top. On the pre-requisite of buying it in the city and it must be pretty unknown. I’m typing this now, on a weekend in Paris, wearing a Red Star shirt (season 21-22)
"Next to this radio mast.." [Shows a shot of the Eiffel Tower] 😂😂
That was rather good. Thank you.
P.S. maybe you should go see St Pauli in Hamburg?
Okay… their crest is a red star, their kit is green with white highlights… Heineken should totally sponsor that team.
In Argentina Red Star FC is known because former national team player Guillermo Stabile was both player and coach for that team in the second half of the 1930s decade. He was, until the 50s, the only non-french coach the team had.
You should get into punditry. So much noise and waffle from most pundits whereas yours made a lot of sense that me as a non-football fan who usually absorbs it as part of general popular culture.
My goodness, I'd love to see a video on the flea market that you mentioned.
I just found out your nice video. I'm a red star fan, but we're not the oldest parisian club. Standard Athletic club are. They still existing but they play in non-league football
Well now we know where that Serbian team stole it’s name from.
🇪🇪Anti RS 👊🏻🖕🏻
DUDE they are sponsored by VICE! that makes they ultra cool.
Thanks for the video. I love Red Star FC. From Malaysia
Love this series Tim ( San Marino was great too), maybe doing the occasional old historic lower division clubs across Europe can become a permanent series.
Please do a video on the oldest team in France. Le Havre!
And now, the Stade Bauer is under reconstruction works ( started a few weeks ago). Who said it was urgently necessary?
Although this is supposed to be the oldest team in Paris, the players look very young to me.
seeing the way people disregard masks and social distancing gives me anxiety
I close my eyes and hear actor Simon Pegg…
Fantastic again, Tim. Now that I live in an affluent part of Paris, it reminds me of my teenage years in Saint-Ouen. By the way, if you're into rugby, there is a comparable rivalry between Racing 92 in Colombes (suburbian club) and Stade Français (Paris glamourous club).
0:28. Nice reminder that in the town with one of the largest antique markets in the world and the oldest football club in Paris there were also horrific executions of French resistance fighters, including a 32-year-old doctor…
