VIDEO: James McClean sparks melee with ex teammates for celebrating towards Sunderland fans

Controversial

Conan Doherty

Never a dull moment as far as James McClean is concerned.

The Republic of Ireland international isn’t one to keep his opinions to himself and he was the centre of attention again at The Hawthorns on Saturday afternoon.

The Derry man was celebrating a victory for the Baggies over his old club Sunderland when he turned and fist pumped in the direction of the away support who were believed to have been goading him throughout the afternoon.

Naturally, some of opposition team mates took exception to his antics and Danny Graham and Lee Cattermole in particular targeted McClean in what became a pushing and shoving exercise after the game.

Tony Pulis wasn’t best impressed.

If anything though, at least the West Brom supporters are starting to take to him a little bit more.
