:00:19. > :00:24.Tonight on Reporting Scotland... The First Minister apologises after
:00:24. > :00:31.being accused of misleading Parliament. I apologise to the
:00:31. > :00:38.chamber. He said he gave incorrect information about college funding.
:00:38. > :00:42.Labour said Scotland would never be able to trust him again. The body
:00:42. > :00:47.of a soldier from Glasgow shot dead in Afghanistan is returns to

:01:31. > :01:36.landed on your doorstep. Alex Salmond has denied apologised City
:01:36. > :01:40.MSPs for getting his figures wrong on the college funding. He claimed
:01:40. > :01:44.it had increased from last year but under pressure he was forced to
:01:44. > :01:54.acknowledge he had used an incorrect figure and that they had
:01:54. > :01:55.
:01:55. > :01:58.It is about them. Students. Also about the Glasgow College boss
:01:58. > :02:08.pressed to quit after secretly recording a meeting with the
:02:08. > :02:09.
:02:09. > :02:12.minister. But now it is about them. Were ministers misled. Some people
:02:12. > :02:18.have said that the Budget was up from last year to this but Labour
:02:18. > :02:23.disagrees. It was in fact wrong. It is misleading of Parliament and is
:02:23. > :02:30.that not an offence that would cost him his job? Alex Salmond that his
:02:30. > :02:38.minister. I think five large and 45 million is by definition an
:02:38. > :02:48.increase in funding. -- 545 million. Outside the chamber, both dismissed

:02:51. > :02:56.If they do not make a case in the chamber, that is an end to the
:02:56. > :03:03.matter. A You are not going anywhere saying? The minister
:03:03. > :03:09.insisted he was not comparing like with like. Funding was initially
:03:09. > :03:15.set at 544.7 million. But that was set at 544.7 million. But that was
:03:15. > :03:23.topped up to 555.7 million. This year, the planned figure was 506.9.
:03:23. > :03:24.The final total, after top-ups... And that, said Labour means that
:03:24. > :03:31.And that, said Labour means that funding has been cut and not
:03:31. > :03:40.increased. Interrupting normal these days, Labour said the First
:03:40. > :03:45.Minister was drawing a line. Well, Ding, Dong, presiding officer.
:03:45. > :03:48.the government, they said the figures were being checked out. And
:03:48. > :03:55.finally, Alex Salmond admitted using the wrong figure for last
:03:55. > :03:58.year and that they had been a cut. I take responsibility for what I
:03:58. > :04:05.have said in this chamber and I take the earliest opportunity to
:04:05. > :04:15.correct a figure. It should have been five under and 56 million, not
:04:15. > :04:20.545 million. And I apologised. -- 556 million. Labour said it was not
:04:20. > :04:28.an isolated incident. After the dip Arkell in Europe, how can anybody
:04:29. > :04:32.believe a word that he says? -- the problem in Europe. Not his happiest

:19:42. > :19:49.Barcelona in the Champions League followed by a new contract. Surely
:19:49. > :19:55.the best week of his life. Yes, possibly. I want to win as much as
:19:55. > :20:02.I can for Celtic. I want to be here for him long time. I warned people
:20:02. > :20:05.to remember me. -- I want people. Many more goals like this and he

:20:12. > :20:16.be in charge of the national team. Under interim manager Billy Stark,
:20:16. > :20:19.the Scots beat Luxembourg by two goals to one. That will not have

:20:31. > :20:36.shortlist of contenders for the job. The few Scotland fans holding on to
:20:36. > :20:42.any hope of reaching Brazil, what they will take from this game with
:20:42. > :20:46.Luxembourg will be in question. A morale boosting game will give the
:20:46. > :20:51.Billy Stark are a chance of sticking the job. It started well.
:20:51. > :20:58.Scotland opened the scoring. He was keen to make his mark. A chance
:20:58. > :21:05.inside the box. He made it 2-0. After a good first half, it tailed
:21:05. > :21:10.off. There was a second path free- kick that made it 2-1. Jordan
:21:10. > :21:15.Rhodes was denied a hat-trick by an offside flag. What chance of Billy
:21:15. > :21:22.Stark keeping the job on a full- time basis? I have been asked to
:21:22. > :21:26.take the team through this game. I am delighted we had a victory. We
:21:27. > :21:31.will see what happens. Billy Stark will be a worthy full-time boss,
:21:31. > :21:38.says the Scotland goalscorer. Without a doubt. You have to look
:21:38. > :21:43.at his record. He has had an under 21 record at the last two campaigns.
:21:43. > :21:49.He is since -- he is experienced as a player and a manager. Without a
:21:49. > :21:53.doubt, I would say. Billy Stark remains in the frame but a
:21:53. > :21:57.Luxembourg friendly is out of the way and the FA will work up a
:21:57. > :22:00.shortlist as the search for a full- time Scotland boss begins.

:22:09. > :22:17.players have deferred their wages but McGlynn says that might not

:22:22. > :22:26.who will be out of contract at the end of the season who may get some
:22:26. > :22:31.interest from others who may come forward and make bids. It may not
:22:31. > :22:36.be because the bids are enough money for the football club to help
:22:36. > :22:38.survive. If that was to happen, the main thing is that the club
:22:38. > :22:40.survives. South Africa's rugby players will
:22:40. > :22:43.provide more than just a physical challenge for Scotland to overcome
:22:43. > :22:46.this weekend, according to new Scots captain Kelly Brown. Whilst
