Motherwell boss Stephen Robinson arrested following 'disturbance' in Edinburgh

Motherwell FC manager Stephen Robinson has been charged following an alleged disturbance in Edinburgh.

The Northern Irishman, 45, was allegedly involved in the incident on Waverley Bridge by the train station on Friday night.

It's understood nobody was injured in the incident.

A Police Scotland statement said: “A 45-year-old man has been arrested in connection with a disturbance on Waverley Bridge in Edinburgh around 7.45pm on Friday, December 13.

“No-one was injured.

“A report will be sent to the Procurator Fiscal.”

Robinson is due to appear in court at a later date and has issued a statement.

He said: “I want to make clear that I deny the charges against me and any wrongdoing on Friday.

“I am very upset by what has become a distressing situation for my partner, myself and our families.

“It is not possible to give a detailed account when a legal process is underway."

Robinson was back with the Motherwell players for training on Saturday and is preparing his team for the Scottish Premiership clash with Rangers on Sunday.
