Bruce says there's no change to McCormack's Aston Villa status

Aston Villa manager Steve Bruce has received no enquiries about Ross McCormack -- and insists the striker will remain an outcast until he apologises to him.

Bruce recently named and shamed the Scot for his allegedly poor conduct, even publicly divulging the player's latest excuse for missing training -- Bruce claimed he said his gates would not open and he could not climb over a relatively small wall.

McCormack is currently training with the under-23s and will continue to do so until he changes his ways, according to the Villa boss.

"I haven't heard anything,'' Bruce said.
