Stoke City midfielder Darren Fletcher is delighted to have reached an appearances record.
Fletcher says he feels humbled to break the Premier League record for appearances by a Scot.
Fletcher made his 326th appearance in the top flight in the 2-2 draw against Brighton on Monday, eclipsing former Leeds and Liverpool midfielder Gary McAllister.
He said: "I take great pride in it; at the same time though, it's a Premier League record.
"I'm well aware there's been plenty of football played before the Premier League with a number of fantastic Scotsmen and I feel it's key to emphasise that.
"At the same time, knowing how tough the league it is, it's shown longevity from me especially after my spell out from illness.
"To overtake someone like Gary McAllister too, who actually was my hero growing up watching Scotland. I've met him a number of times; he's a great man so to go past someone like that is really humbling."
