McCall

Well boss Stuart McCall has hit back at the outrageous comments made by Scott Brown after Saturday’s Cup Final.

Brown showed a lack of dignity by accusing Motherwell of being “cloggers” and being encouraged by their manager to go over the top. Not surprisingly the Well boss wasn’t too thrilled with the midfielder’s comments.

The Motherwell manager said, "I think he'll be embarrassed by his comments, or at least he should be. If he watches the game again, as I'm sure he will, he'll be embarrassed.

"The comment or suggestion that I send my team out to go over the ball in tackles is quite ridiculous. I want my players to be competitive, of course I do. But there's a fine line.

"As much as losing the Cup Final hurt us we were dignified in defeat. You've got to take your medicine and we wished Celtic all the best after the game.

"To read that this morning was quite sad to be honest. He should be enjoying his moment because he hasn't had many this season. To come out with comments regarding my players and how I send out my team is sad.

"I'm never going to be worried by what Scott Brown says but he should be concentrating on himself.”

Given the season Celtic have had with all sorts of controversy it would seem they never learn, but hopefully they can learn ahead of next season and all the talk can be about football.

McCall hits back....
