Good video! Hearts fan here. If you do a follow up then Vladimir Romanov's take over of Hearts in 2005 has some absolute gold for you, sacking managers while we're top of the league, picking teams from names out of a hat, half of the Lithuanian national team signed, old firm match fixing accusations... was a wild ride 😅
From an Aussie. Great video. Im one of the lucky ones that supports both a Scottish and an English team. (yes in Scotland that is often the case - people follow along to both) I find myself way more invested in my SPL team than the EPL one and I have been following both since the late 90's. Sure its not one of the Top 5 Leagues, we know that, but heck its way more relatable to than the $$$ leagues. Long way that continue.
From a Liverpool and Aberdeen supporter, I see exactly what you mean mate! Both leagues certainly have their own appeals, nothing like a bit of SPFL. Glad you liked the video mate, have a nice one
Even as a Hibs fan, i can see that Motherwell's sixth goal was outstanding. You know he wouldn't have dared attempt that if it was 0-0, but after eleven goals he obviously thought "fuck it", and went for the spectacular.
The standard of football might not be great but the banter is world class. The agendas, the paranoia, the rivalries, the madness. What other league in the world has seen a player injure himself with a microwaved egg?
Rangers vs Celtic in the 2015/16 Scottish cup semi final is a good one to watch if you haven’t already, Barrie McKay’s goal is an absolute screamer. That goal caused one of the best celebrations I’ve ever seen at our supporters club
@@kelusport no worries glad to see you’re enjoying the league. I remember going into that game expecting an absolute humping like previous games due to rangers still being in the championship and Celtic having I think 8 titles in a row at that point, then McKay pulls out that goal and we go onto win on penalties
from a partick thistle fan (grew up a celtic/thistle fan due to my family) we haven’t been in the top division for a few years now but it’s still wayyyyyy better to watch than the english premiership, grew up watching old firm classics and all sorts of scottish clubs in europe and such, class video man glad you love our wee country and sport 🏴🇺🇸
i always have to mention this when that 6-6 game is brought up. my mum is a lifelong motherwell fan and she randomly was able to go to that game (we live a bit more north and she doesnt go to most games these days). she came home from that game and had lost her voice for a week, most mental scoreline ive ever seen
Excellent video! Thanks for this. I’m a stenhousemuir fan (yes we exist) we’ve just won our first ever league title in over 100 years to be promoted from the 4th-3rd tier of Scottish football. ⚽️
I'm a motherwell fan and was still young for the 6-6 games and when we were 6-2 down i was begging the people i was with to leave because i didn't want to see anymore, they convinced me to stay and I'm so thankful they did it is one of the most unforgettable experiences of my life and I'm happy to see it covered here but you missed out the most dramatic part we missed a 90th min penalty before we equalised great video though mate keep up the good work

You should watch Scotlands game on RUclips its a 2 part thing. Shows everything that you love about scottish football but also that dark financial side of clubs living beyond there means and getting into trouble. Celtic hearts stories are good as the fans saved there clubs as for rangers they were liquidated and had to start again. It also shows you the difficulty with the TV deals scottish football has had
Great video mate allways love to see videos of our game form a outside view specially when someone gets it were not a big money league but fan's live and breath there club from top to bottom of the leagues , hoping theres a part 2 comeing aswell 🍀
Exactly. Being in America all you see are Messi an Ronaldo tops, which there's nothing wrong with, but I feel like discovering the true passion of football in a nation line Scotland just brings a much deeper and enjoyable understanding of the game. Glad you liked the video, part two will be in the works! Have a nice one mate
The 4-4 draw between Dundee Utd & Inverness in 2012 always sticks in my mind ! Absolutely mental game, I remember watching it at work! Think we were down 3-0 in the first 10 minutes or something bizarre like that!
And this only scratches the surface. Don’t forget Paton and Wilson doing Zaluska. David Martindale used to supply drugs. There are many many more stories
You get it, you really do. Welcome to the madness of Scottish football. Other leagues, particuarly the English PL, are just playgrounds for the world's billionaires who buy and sell teams like you would purchase a hotel in a game of Monopoly. No soul, no passion, no madness.
Thanks for the positive coverage of Scottish football. Taken as a whole it is, as you say, a unique and entertaining experience. But we need structural changes to (i) improve youth coaching and (ii) make the rest of the SPL more able to compete with Glasgow's big two.
Do one on Falkirk winning the first division and not being allowed promotion due to the shiteness of their stadium and club finances. Cheers, signed, Falkirk fan.

@@kelusport league needs support from abroad, every league does now! Class video detailing some great moments… some I remember! Key ones for next time… everyone remembers where they were when Leigh Griffiths scored vs England Saints Double - especially Shaun Rooney scoring in the 32nd minute in both finals Amount of times the Old Firm have gone 9 in a row but never 10 (Rangers 2021) Rangers Europa league final run The phrase “Hibsed it” Scotland at Wembley 1977 The og “Aguero moment”. Hamilton vs St Johnstone and Ross County vs Gretna. Winner of the First Division switched something like 3 times that day That time Asda (British Walmart) bought a football stadium. Finally St Johnstone reaching their first Scottish Cup Final in history in 2014 and winning it vs their Tayside rivals Dundee United (Very St Johnstone focused as… well I was there for most of them 😅)
@Ryan.J.L Thank you so much mate, you have no idea how much I appreciate this! Plenty of great moments in Scottish football, I'm sure there's enough for multiple more videos. Have a nice one!
Now if you think the premiership's good, wait until you see the championship. I truly believe it's the best league in the world for entertainment value
Lower level football always has its own charm it seems. I'm a massive fan of Scottish football round-up, 30 min highlights of all the lower leagues every week. Seems like there's always something special on a regular basis.
thanks for the interest in the SPL, the ridiculous amounts of money in the other leagues is killing the game and are making them sterile both with fans(more tourist fans now than normal fans) and the teams. Their passion is lost, can assure you, you wont find half and half scarfs at ANY scottish game, at any level! Yes our league is crazy, yes we cant pay 30/40 mill for players but it also isnt crap. so many players have came up from england thinking , pffftt this is going to be a holiday here, nope wrong, and then totally failed and cant handle the pace and physicality of the league. slight correction for your gary mackay stevens story, so he used to play for dundee utd, then celtic before aberdeen (think he might have been in England between celtic and aberdeen) and he decided would be a good idea to go out drinking in glasgow after a game🤔😅. He was subsequently chased by a gang of lads due to playing for Celtic previously and he jumped over the bridge to get away from them or else he was about to get done in. And by the way, the pic you have of the bridge is the right one, cant tell you how lucky he was to actually not seriously injure himself, the river is a small tributary river which is between 2-5ft at that bit depending on the weather! Another one to capture footage of for your next video was, im sure either a season or 2 ago, someone threw a pie at lawrence shankland after he scored a goal during his celebration and he caught it right in the air and then started eating it🤣
Thanks so much for your comment! I completely agree; I feel like Scotland has that charm to its football that's so rare these days. Cheers for the info about the Mackay Stevens story, seems like I've fallen for the tabloid's take on it! Shankland pie catch is iconic, what a man! Glad you enjoyed the video, have a nice one mate
I'd say the old firm (mostly Celtic) hogging all the money & taking other teams best players for peanuts is killing football. That and the poor technical quality in Scotland.
Some great moments throughout the years for sure but now it is dismal, clubs broke, standard is abominable, pettiness runs through every single club and there is no care for the actual state of the game now or the future. Grew up on watching the game and now it's not worth 90 minutes of my time sadly.
I don't agree outside of the top 4 they all play anti football and the managers play old men instead of giving better youth players a chance they also can't sell tickets but refuse to sell to celtic who would fill the stadium they choose empty seats it is a weird boring out of date league
I do see what you mean, every league has its issues I guess, there just happens to be quite a bit of positives that in my opinion cancel it out. Just my opinion tho, cheers for your comment, have a nice one mate
Classic. Celtic provides the least away allocation in the league, with every seat being a restricted view. Not only that, celtic provides 0 away allocation fir the biggest game in the league. Your, either clueless or a entitled OF fan
@@blairmcnab3335Most away fans are just scared to come to celtic I don't blame them it is a training session for us most the time and about the allocation Rangers started it remember ? we humiliated you lot so much you banned us hilarious.
The more celtic fans you allow into your stadium the more repairs you have to do to the stadium after they have left. Absolute scum who think it's a form of entertainment to cause damage to seats and toilets.
I see what you mean mate, but I also feel like there's enough going on in the background to make up for it. Same thing with the Bundesliga; loads of people don't give it time, but there's some really great football and narratives going on behind the scenes
@@kelusport There's narratives going on in every league, that's what makes football so endlessly entertaining, but the SPL is so lopsided as to be basically pointless. The last time a club outside of the Old Firm won the league was when Alex Ferguson performed miracles with Aberdeen, and before that it was 15 years more. That means that since 1965 (54 years!!!) only 4 times has the title been won by a club other than Rangers and Celtic. That is fucking appalling. The football is dross, the grounds are falling apart, everybody seems very apathetic and Scottish teams have become so shite they are now regular whipping boys when they do manage to qualify for the group stages of European competitions. Far from being the best league in the world it is actually probably the worst. The only reason one might say it's the best is because they're being ironic, and I think that's cruel, especially coming from a yank. Scotland doesn't need your condescension or feigned excitement. It needs investment. Badly.
@I_am_nobody999 definitely not trying to be condescending, and did my best to make that clear in the video. I get there's plenty of issues with the league, and I would love to see them sorted, as would anyone else. Even if the league isn't doing too well right now, I think there's plenty of iconic/entertaining moments to reflect on, and thought it would be good to shed some light on that.
@@kelusport Yeah fair enough. I only watched the introduction. It made me scoff angrily and then I leapt into my comment. You're entitled to your opinion but it's baseless, as I see it. I don't disagree that exposure is good, though. It's the next best thing to investment and there's very little of that right now so you're definitely doing them a service with this video. So in that case, keep up the good work, and best of luck.
St johnstone 4 v Dundee 4.....dundee 4~2 down 12 mins to go, down to 8 outfield players and a 5 foot 6 inch right winger in goal. Draw the game 4~4 with last minute equaliser. Its never over

Classic. Celtic provides the least away allocation in the league, with every seat being a restricted view. Not only that, celtic provides 0 away allocation fir the biggest game in the league. Your, either clueless or a entitled OF fan
@@blairmcnab3335Most away fans are just scared to come to celtic I don't blame them it is a training session for us most the time and about the allocation Rangers started it remember ? we humiliated you lot so much you banned us hilarious.
@@b3njys235they can't handle the party Celtic bring to ipox 😂
The more celtic fans you allow into your stadium the more repairs you have to do to the stadium after they have left. Absolute scum who think it's a form of entertainment to cause damage to seats and toilets.
The Scottish league is shite. Trust a seppo to be so clueless. Can't have a good league when it's won by two clubs over and over again.
I see what you mean mate, but I also feel like there's enough going on in the background to make up for it. Same thing with the Bundesliga; loads of people don't give it time, but there's some really great football and narratives going on behind the scenes
@@kelusport There's narratives going on in every league, that's what makes football so endlessly entertaining, but the SPL is so lopsided as to be basically pointless. The last time a club outside of the Old Firm won the league was when Alex Ferguson performed miracles with Aberdeen, and before that it was 15 years more. That means that since 1965 (54 years!!!) only 4 times has the title been won by a club other than Rangers and Celtic.
That is fucking appalling. The football is dross, the grounds are falling apart, everybody seems very apathetic and Scottish teams have become so shite they are now regular whipping boys when they do manage to qualify for the group stages of European competitions.
Far from being the best league in the world it is actually probably the worst. The only reason one might say it's the best is because they're being ironic, and I think that's cruel, especially coming from a yank. Scotland doesn't need your condescension or feigned excitement. It needs investment. Badly.
@I_am_nobody999 definitely not trying to be condescending, and did my best to make that clear in the video. I get there's plenty of issues with the league, and I would love to see them sorted, as would anyone else. Even if the league isn't doing too well right now, I think there's plenty of iconic/entertaining moments to reflect on, and thought it would be good to shed some light on that.
@@kelusport Yeah fair enough. I only watched the introduction. It made me scoff angrily and then I leapt into my comment. You're entitled to your opinion but it's baseless, as I see it. I don't disagree that exposure is good, though. It's the next best thing to investment and there's very little of that right now so you're definitely doing them a service with this video. So in that case, keep up the good work, and best of luck.
@I_am_nobody999 cheers mate, appreciate your comments as well, always good to have a different perspective. Have a nice one 👍
