George Burley insists he won’t quit as Scotland boss despite the 1-0 defeat to the Netherlands spelling the end of their World Cup dream.

Pressure has increased on the former Hearts manager especially since the 4-0 loss to Norway in Oslo.

But when asked if he wanted to remain in the Hampden hotseat, Burley remained defiant.

He said: “Of course. I’ve been in the job a year and a half. It's probably a similar scenario tonight to the last campaign. We lost to Italy then and tonight we lost to Holland.

“We deserved something in both situations. We move on. The players we have brought in have done well so there is plenty to build on and plenty of improving to be done.

“We were one step away. It’s up to the SFA but as manager of Scotland, I'm certainly looking forward to the next few games.”
