ABERDEEN FC boss Craig Brown today admitted it’s time to save Ryan Fraser from being “battered” by Scottish football’s boot boys.

Referees have now dished out a shocking 16 yellow cards and one red so far for fouls committed on the teenager in the 13 games he has featured in this season.

Brown confirmed there is a fair chance the 18-year-old could find himself kept in reserve in the coming weeks for Aberdeen FC – even when he is fully fit.
