But when it comes to actually fronting a show, Steven Thompson emerged as the top Scot in a new league table. Betway said: "The results suggest that when it comes to football broadcasting, fans value more than noise and controversy. He won two league titles, a Scottish Cup and League Cup at Ibrox before heading to Cardiff in 2006, where he helped the Bluebirds reach the 2008 FA Cup Final. He scored in the 2013 League Cup final as the Buddies lifted the trophy for the first time.
