GLASGOW coach Sean Lineen today tore into his Warriors players - despite seeing them move to the brink of Challenge Cup qualification, writes Matthew Lindsay.

The Hughenden outfit beat Pool Two rivals GRAN Parma 47-17 in their European rugby showdown in Italy.

A win at home to English rivals Saracens on Friday will guarantee their progress to the last eight, and even a defeat could seem them through as one of the best-placed runners-up.

But Lineen said: "We made a lot of mistakes. If that happens against Saracens we'll be punished far more ruthlessly."
