My College Tutor Recently Claimed In A Quiz That In Btham Played Football For Sunthorpe United And England At Football, I Put Her Right But I Need Someone Elses Confirmation To Prove My Point. If Anyone Else Knows Differently Please Let Me Know?

Yes, you are right. Ian Botham did indeed play professional football for Scunthorpe United, but he only ever ran out as an international player for England playing cricket.

Not sure where your college tutor got the idea that he played footie for England. But if you need further confirmation, there's a substantial entry for the great man at wikipedia, the online encyclopedia. Sadly, it does appear rather light on his latest incarnation plugging breakfast cereal. Bet he could eat three at one sitting!
