SCOTTISH National Party MSP James Dornan urged all Scottish Premiership clubs to pay their staff the living wage.

Hearts are the only club in the top flight who have signed up to the Scottish Living Wage scheme, which is currently set at £8.25 and higher than the national minimum wage.

Mr Dornan has called on chief executive of the SPFL Neil Doncaster to force the remaining 11 clubs to adopt the living wage.
