Nicola Adams hoping for support from Scottish supporters

Nicola Adams is hopeful that the Scottish supporters will be on her side as she attempts to add Commonwealth gold to her Olympic title.

Nicola Adams has revealed that she will wear a tartan bandana to the ring at the Commonwealth Games in an attempt to gain support from the Scottish fans.

The Olympic champion will be competing for England in Glasgow, but she is hopeful of receiving extra backing from the Scots as she looks to claim a gold medal in the flyweight division.

"I've got a bandana made out of Adams tartan that a six-year-old girl Scottish girl sent me in the post," Adams told Press Association Sport.

"I hope I've already done enough to win over the Scottish fans but hopefully if I wear a bit of tartan into the ring it will help even more."

Adams will be the only boxer from any of the home nations in her weight division.
