Scots bullish despite injury blows

Scott Brown and Alan Hutton have both been ruled out of Scotland’s Euro 2008 qualifier against Georgia on Wednesday.

The Old Firm duo were in inspirational form in Saturday’s 3-1 win against Ukraine at Hampden but both left the field carrying knocks.

Following assessment by medical staff this afternoon, both players have been forced to withdraw from the squad ahead of Wednesday’s game in Tbilisi.
