Published 2023-11-13
Chris Sutton was not impressed by Ian Ladyman’s ‘poverty’ assessment of the SPFL as it really does kick off! Ian has been under a lot of scrutiny following his column on Scottish football, Chris isn't happy and thinks Ian is 'having a pop' at Celtic!

  • @lewismccrimmon
    Im a rangers man and yes sutton loves to wind us rangers fans up , however where i will give him credit is his unwavering support and backing of scottish football , he'll defend us to the hilt
  • @ianvass621
    Aberdeen fan here but I really admire Suttons support of Scottish football
  • @benmiles1370
    English here with a Scottish girlfriend who is a passionate Hibs fan and have attended games with her. Yes Premier League is years ahead of this league thanks to the money pumped in but Ive been to several SPL games that have been great to watch with a great atmosphere from the fans who are just out to enjoy that particular game on the day and not think much beyond that. Yes the league may lack competition at the very top with the Old Firm dominating and sadly I dont see that changing but it makes it all the more special when one of the other clubs beats them to a trophy. And that does happen more often than some people think.

    Sutton is very astute , he knows what he’s talking about and has a very broad knowledge of football in general , I’ve never seen him back down or lose an argument yet and it’s great to see how loyal he is to Scottish football and Celtic, his old club in particular 👍
  • @kiezorfc8559
    That’s what I like about sutton he’s always an advocate for Scottish football and always has our backs
  • @martinrooney6883
    I love Chris Sutton. But after this video..... I love him even more.
  • As a bit of a Rangers fan, I 100% applaud Chris Sutton here. Thank you for defending our game
  • @XJstar5
    Well said Chris, coming from Rangers fan. You love the club you love, and it is all relative regardless of the league. One of my favorite Scottish players was Roy Aitken . . . spilled his guts for Celtic and his country. Take that media world and shove it!
  • @ThomasKelly669
    Souness regretted leaving Scottish football For his Love, Wilkins said he wished he came sooner Larson played 7 glorious years played for Barca and Man U in his later seasons
  • @bazzzzz6175
    "It's based on nothing, that column" Gotta love big Sutty.
  • @G.S.T.K
    Chris for the first time ever I totally agree with you,,unless you have played for Celtic or Rangers people down south will never understand,,our clubs don’t have 50 million to spend on bang average players like some clubs have done down south,,we get peanut’s from tv revenue,,they just don’t get it,,that’s why both clubs will never play down south,,imagine Celtic and Rangers getting premier league type revenue
  • @alexandertm5362
    So as a thistle fan In glasgow I should pick a team that play better football? No it's called loyalty
  • @realmusiklover
    The fact that, after everything Chris mentioned, Ian can still only focus on Celtic and Rangers and the value they would bring to English football is truly revealing. Well done Chris for applying relativity and putting a sensible and strong argument forward for our game up here. We have a solid, well-supported product and money hasn't ripped the heart out of it. Long may it continue.
  • @almamunro
    There is NO SUCH thing as 'English' football. ALL the billions are all funded by foreign corporations. ALL the Premier League teams are OWNED by foreigners...and most of the Players, Managers and staff are foreign. Additionally, more and more people in Englandshire are foreign also...and that's massively increasing also.
  • @billyCREIGHTON44
    The stick that Chris gets is out of order the man is always sticking up for our game in Scotland…
  • Ladyman must have a very short memory...before the cash kings arrived in Englad teams in Scotland could more than hold their own when it came to paying player wages and attracting big names. The old firm also beat England's top teams regularly in Europe

    Comparing Scottish football to English football is like comparing apples and oranges. We absolutely love the product we have in Scotland. Is it the best league or even considered top 10? No or course it’s not. Scottish football has two horses sure but that’s purely because they are both absolutely massive clubs with a lot of great history. When the premier league came in and they made the tv deals with sky and all the rest of it it gave the English league an astronomical amount of funds that even the best leagues in the world at the time like La Liga & Serie A couldn’t compete with. They have been for years the exact same thing that the Saudi Pro League is becoming. Everyone flocked to the Prem because they became the most competitive league in the world (with the most money for simply competing in it) and all the other leagues lost their talent to them. What’s happening now is the supporters within the prem are having all their best players snapped up by the Saudi PL like has already happened before. In Scotland the winners of our league get I’d say maybe 5 million, compare that to getting 100 million just for finishing bottom. How can you compare that? Scotland don’t have anywhere near close to the money within the league to pay better players and spend more on transfer. Rangers and Celtic do pretty well in Europe against these odds. Yeah we can’t compete in the champions league, but Rangers were finalist in the same competition as West Ham were quarter finalists and on their way to that final put out European Giants (in terms of wealth) Leipzig and Dortmund over 2 legs. That’s mighty impressive from a tiny league with not very much revenue. Of course we find this ignorant attitude offensive. Because it’s so easy from an English point of view to simply say we’re embarrassing or not to a high enough standard. If Rangers and Celtic got put into the English Prem with at least 3 years of equal revenue even to the relegated teams, sure we’d be able to compete, because the two clubs are some of the best supported clubs in the world. No bad for two wee teams fae wee Scotland eh?
  • @iainmccalman417
    I usually can't stand Chris Sutton (being a Rangers supporter)BUT I must agree with him 100% here.
  • @vine191
    Fair play to Chris Sutton, he is reeling off stats that I never knew about Scottish football…most supported league in Europe…happy days, come to Scotland if you like football 😊😊😊😊
