What James McClean did to Mansfield fans after refusing to stand with Wrexham teammates for Remembrance silence

A video shows what James McClean did to Mansfield fans after refusing to stand with his Wrexham teammates as they observed a minute's silence ahead of Remembrance Sunday.

McClean has refused to take part in Remembrance commemorations ever since he moved to England back in 2011.

And ahead of Wrexham's league clash against Mansfield at the Racecourse Ground, both teams stood around the centre circle for a minute's silence before kick-off.

McClean, however, stood away from his Wrexham teammates as a section of Wrexham fans could be heard singing an anti-monarchy chant.

As for the match, Wrexham beat Mansfield 1-0 as Ryan Barnett scored the only goal of the game.

After the result, McClean walked past the visiting supporters and could be seen making a gesture to the away fans as he made his way off the pitch.

A clip posted on social media shows the Northern Irishman blowing kisses and waving at the Mansfield fans.

He has previously said that he refuses to observe traditions due to the British Army's role in The Troubles.

The 35-year-old has received both condemnation and praise for his stance over the years.

Wrexham, meanwhile, have 28 points on the board following Saturday's victory.

The Welsh club sit in third place as they aim for a third consecutive promotion.

Speaking after the fixture, Wrexham boss Phil Parkinson said: "We have had games like that where we’ve just got to make sure that we roll our sleeves up and just realise that we’re not at our fluid best in terms of our football,” Parkinson told reporters at full-time.

"[On those occasions, we have to] just stand strong and everyone [has to] do their jobs out of possession. In general, we did that."

He added: "I thought, in the first-half, we let [Mansfield’s] front two dictate to us a little bit. But, second-half, we did better at that, and the back-three gave us a platform to win the game.

"So, yeah we are pleased to win."
