Colchester United striker Chris Iwelumo has hit out at his omission from Scotland's B squad for the international clash with Finland.

The 28-year-old has been in devastating form for the U's this season, netting 15 goals for the Championship's surprise package, but is gutted to have missed out on a national team call-up.

He said: "I've scored 15 goals and I've not even had a sniff of the B squad.

"I think the SPL is on a par with the Championship so I was devastated. I don't know if Alex McLeish knows whether I'm Scottish or not.

"Maybe I'll have to put Mac in front of my surname. But I'll keep my chin up and hopefully keep scoring."
