NO SFA fine or ban for "Gaffer" - By Steve Mitchell

THE SFA's disciplinary committee have allowed Brechin manager, Dick Campbell off with a warning, following the controversial League Cup exit at the hands of Albion Rovers at Cliftonhill.

Dick attended the meeting following the submission of a report by match referee Colin Hardie, and gave his side of what was a hugely controversial evening. The committee took into account the Manager's previously good disciplinary record on the touchline.

After Brechin thought they had won the game on penalties, Mr Hardie ordered the ultimate Rovers spot-kick to be retaken and the kick which was previously missed, was scored, so handing the Coatbridge side victory.

This decision means that one of Brechin's biggest assets will be allowed in the dug-out for the rest of the season, good behaviour prevailing of course!
