Craigan (39) will be part of the BT Sport team providing live television coverage of the mouthwatering Group F Motherwell v Rangers Betfred League Cup tie at Fir Park.

“Competitive football is what people want to see and Motherwell v Rangers at a packed Fir Park will be terrific.

“It is always nice to entice people to watch summer football.
“The kids can wear their new strips.
“And it will be the only live TV game I can ever remember kicking off at 3pm on a Saturday. That is great too.”
Craigan said he would “never say never” to taking on the vacant assistant manager’s post at Motherwell, but said he was “more than happy” with his existing working arrangements.

“We can’t be as ready as we will be for the first league game at Kilmarnock (on August 6).
“It is not the biggest game of the season for us, but don’t think I don’t take it seriously.
“I do. I would love to win.”
