THE Aviva British Indoor International will play to a full house at Glasgow’s Kelvin Hall tomorrow, and while the old arena will probably be staging its last such occasion – the National Indoor Arena is expected to be ready next year – there should be more sadness that there will be only one Scot on view,

Kilbarchan’s Claire Gibson replacing British No 1 Jenny Meadows in the 800 metres.

Capital star Lynsey Sharp would have been an obvious replacement for Meadows but had already indicated she would not be running indoors this winter.
