Who Are The Most Famous Scottish Football Club?

Who Are The Most Famous Scottish Football Club?

I would think it is obviously between Glasgow Celtic and Glasgow Rangers.

As Celtic have a European Cup, and a big connection with Ireland, I would expect Celtic are the best known club. 

Rangers are famous in Scotland, the rest of Great Britain, and Northern Ireland.  

After that I would expect Aberdeen FC, to be the most famous due to the victory in the 1983 Cup Winners Cup, against Real Madrid, and the 1983 European Super Cup Final. 

But I accept Scottish clubs are not as famous as clubs from the biggest European leagues. 

The most famous clubs in the World tend to from the other bigger Western European nations. 

But in Scotland perhaps Dundee United might be better known than Heart of Midlothian, and Hibernian. Simply because Dundee United have achieved more in European football, such as reaching the 1987 UEFA Cup Final. 

I think that clubs like Motherwell, Queen's Park, and Dundee could have big reputations. 

The more supporters the clubs have the bigger the more famous the club is. 

But in this article I do include how many neutrals know about Scottish clubs. 

Perhaps Inverness CT, Ross County, St Johnstone, St Mirren, Livingston, Partick Thistle, Kilmarnock, Dunfermline Athletic, Raith Rovers, Falkirk, and Queen of the South have some large amounts of fame. 

Dumbarton would have been a more famous clubs in the old days. 

But in total it is Aberdeen, Glasgow Celtic, Glasgow Rangers and Dundee United who will be the most famous over Europe and the World.
