Now he says he can focus on next Sunday's big one - the Scottish Cup trip to Celtic and the biggest match in his club's history.

Stewart was red carded at Huntly, and could now miss out on bossing his team from the Celtic Park technical area or dressing room before and during the match.

He spoke after the match about trying to calm down a heated situation during the match, saying he was defending one of his players after a "shocking" comment was made by a Huntly player.

Stewart admitted he has made no preparation for the cup clash in terms of doing any homework on Celtic.

But he is relishing the visit to Glasgow, and praised his team for showing the spirit and mentality to come through a tough league match and gain all three points.
