Scottish Football Museum
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Scottish Football Museum is the Scottish Football Association's National Museum of Football, located in Hampden Park in Glasgow, Scotland.
[edit] The Museum
The museum houses over 2000 objects of football memorabilia, including the world's oldest cap and match ticket, from the first international match of 1872; and the world's oldest national trophy, the Scottish Football Association Challenge Cup, which was made in 1873.
Visitors can also see The Championship of the World Trophy: in 1888 Renton of Dunbartonshire, the Scottish Cup holders, beat West Bromwich Albion, the FA Cup winners, in a match dubbed as the ‘Championship of the United Kingdom and the World'. In appalling weather Renton won 4-1.
