Celtic hero Scott Brown says Fleetwood Town 'hell' inspired FA Cup history as he makes 'giants' quip

Scott Brown has opened up on the 'hell' he gave his Fleetwood Town starts that inspired FA Cup history for the Celtic legend.

The Cod Army reached the fifth round of the competition for the first time after a fourth round reply win over English League One leaders Sheffield Wednesday. Carlos Mendes Gomes’ header in the second half was the difference on the night as the Hoops hero set up a clash with English Championship runaway table toppers Burnley.

Brown slammed his team in the weekend defeat to Burton Albion branding them 'schoolboy' and 'Sunday League' but they landed huge pass marks in this clash with the gaffer labelling his team as 'exceptional' as he thanked them for taking his messages on board in the build-up.
