Jody for Scotland?
Scotland coach Paul Hegarty was an interested spectator at the St Johnstone/Falkirk game (writes James Masson).
Paul, formerly manager at Livingston when Murray Davidson was a player there, would have been impressed by the Saints midfielder and he was also probably casting an eye over Jody Morris.

With a Scottish grandfather, from Springboig, near Glasgow, Jody is eligible to play for Scotland. He has played for England at every level up to U/21, but never for the senior team. He admitted that playing for the Scotland senior team is “something I would think about”.

Jody added, “My Scottish grandfather is on my mum’s side of the family and I love life in Scotland. I’ve never thought of playing for Scotland before.”

Meanwhile, Jonatan Johansson should be fit for Saints’ trip to face Aberdeen at Pittodrie on Saturday, although he may have to wear a protective bandage on his head after 12 stitches were inserted in a deep cut against Falkirk.
