Toby Sibbick launches Scottish football standard defence as Hearts star makes 'educate yourself' claim

Toby Sibbick has come out swinging in defence of the standard of Scottish football by saying some need to 'educate' themselves on the game.

The Hearts star has seen both sides of the argument having played for the likes of Barnsley and AFC Wimbledon in his youth career before making the jump up north to Edinburgh last year. Sibbick has become a fans favourite under Robbie Neilson and has already experienced big successes with the Jambos including having the chance to play European football.

The defender, who can also operate in midfield, believes the general barbs thrown at Scottish football for its standard are wide of the mark and through his own experience, he can attest to the fact that there is real quality on show. The 23-year-old also insists some from the outside are stuck in a certain 'mind-frame' when it comes to the game in Scotland.
