Warburton MarkFurious Mark Warburton has slammed Gordon Strachan for ignoring his Championship storm-troopers for Scotland’s double header against the Czech Republic and Denmark.

Strachan has named two squads of 85 players for the matches but hasn’t included a single player from the Ibrox table toppers.

Danny Wilson and Lee Wallace both played at full international under Craig Levein while Andy Halliday and Jason Holt have been compared to Xavi and Iniesta by some shrewd observers.

Warbo has virtually reinvented football since moving to Ibrox nine months ago with almost every subject under the sun discussed during his media conferences.

In recent weeks the former city trader has been moaning about plastic pitches, Ronny Deila and Chris Sutton, having milked those subjects to death he has turned his venom on Strachan.

This is not ‘Warburton blasting Strachan’ because I’m not,” he told the Daily Record before going in to blast the Scotland boss over the latest squad announcements.

I am surprised, yeah. We have some high quality players in the squad. We are 15 points clear at the top of the Championship.

I am delighted because the players are working hard here but I know there are a lot of international class players in the dressing room.

That is just my opinion. Gordon is the national manager and I respect that. I know how good Lee Wallace has been. I know how good other players have been but I don’t make that decision, it is down to Gordon and his staff.”

It’s believed that Warbo has already been discussed by the SFA as a future Scotland manager with a wide reaching portfolio to revolutionise the game from grass root level upwards.
