SAF is pleased that Daren Fletcher has been chosen as the new Scotland
captain. He told the official shite:

"I am absolutely delighted that Darren has been made captain of Scotland,"

"He is the right type of man; sensible, down to earth and a serious professional.

"He will be a great example to all the players in the Scotland team."

And Berti Vogts thanks Fergie for the tip off and gets excited about young Fletch, he said:

"I have to say thank you to Alex Ferguson, who told me, 'Hey, Keane is always
telling Fletcher to play for the Irish Republic.'

"I am proud to have him in my team."

He went on: "We have had meetings about other things and Darren was always
involved. Darren Fletcher is the skipper of the future, after Barry Ferguson.

"He has only cold water in his veins. He is so strong and is a strong person with a great personality."

"Rudi Voller was 18 or 20 years old when he first played for the national team but Darren Fletcher is one of my biggest hits. He is fantastic."
