Lennon confident Brown will handle Gers’ grilling

NEIL LENNON has no concerns about Scott Brown despite the Celtic skipper being singled out by Rangers defender Kyle Bartley ahead of tonight’s Scottish Cup fifth-round replay at Parkhead.

Brown has clashed with El-Hadji Diouf in recent Glasgow derbies and the on-loan Arsenal youngster, who was deemed lucky only to be booked three minutes into his Old Firm debut last week for a foul on the Scotland midfielder, rekindled the fire again at the Ibrox Stadium at the weekend.

Bartley said: “Not many people at Rangers get on with Scott Brown and I’m not his biggest fan so we will see what happens in the next game.”
