Irons stunned by Gretna cup loss

Davie Irons criticised his side's defending in the cup defeat

Gretna head coach Davie Irons was unhappy with his side's defending in the 3-0 defeat by Morton in the fourth-round of the Scottish Cup.

"I am very, very disappointed," he said after watching the collapse against the First Division outfit.

"It was shoddy defending - we didn't press the ball and allowed people to get strikes on goal.

"We didn't have the desire Morton showed. I hope the players are hurting - I'm sure they are."
