Scott Brown has been around the block a few times and know what the media are all about in this country when it comes to trying to stir the pot.

Taking part in a press conference for Hearts vs Celtic on Wednesday night, there was absolutely no need for any member of the media to ask a question about what happened to a Gers player at the weekend.

However, a question was thrown up to the Celtic Captain which he quickly batted away.

The journalist asked Scott Brown about Alfredo Morelos receiving a second yellow for his celebration against Motherwell – straight away the midfielder said – “Not answering that.”.

When the journalist tried to press him again, Brown again shut them down and said “Next”.

Scott was absolutely correct to shoot down the question with the media looking for a scintilla of a headline they can use against him and whip up fresh controversy before the Glasgow Derby at the end of the month.

Right now, Celtic have too many games to be side tracked with the Glasgow Derby circus.
