Stevie Frail insists Paul McGinn has already shown he’s got the steel to be Motherwell captain – after he approved a training ground whack from Liam Gordon that left him sidelined.
The defender has been handed the armband following Liam Kelly’s exit but missed the opening two games of the League Cup campaign after pre-season roommate Gordon left him nursing a bruised ankle. Rather than point the finger at the Fir Park new boy though, McGinn held up the former St Johnstone man’s shuddering challenge as an example to the rest of his teammates of how training sessions should be done.
