<span class="sommario">David Moyes has ruled himself out of contention for the Scotland job - at least forthe moment.</span></p>

Everton manager has revealed that he would one day like to manage Scotland - but not yet, only when he is &ldquo;a little bit older and [more] experienced&rdquo;.</p>

The Scotland job is up for grabs following the decision of Alex McLeish to leave the national post and return to club management with Birmingham City.</p>

And Moyes has been mentioned as one of the possible candidates to succeed McLeish at the SFA.</p>

However, the Everton manager is enjoying his club role and does feels the time is right - yet - to manage his country's team.</p>

&ldquo;One day I would like to manage Scotland, but not at the moment,&rdquo; Moyes said. &ldquo;I would want to be a little bit older and experienced.</p>

&ldquo;Anyone would want to be linked with the job as national manager, I would like the national job but it is not for me just yet.</p>

"If I do well enough at Everton, maybe there will be an opportunity in the future but certainly not for a long period of time.</p>

&ldquo;I still feel I have only just come into management, I am still one of the youngest about. But I feel the national manager&rsquo;s job should be for someone a bit older and nearer the end of their time in management.</p>

&ldquo;Maybe they do not always want the day-to-day involvement, but I want that at Everton.&rdquo;</p>

Moyes also spoke about being charged by the FA this week for the remarks he made about referee Mark Clattenburg&rsquo;s handling of the Merseyside derby with Liverpool earlier in the season.</p>

&ldquo;The FA charge is very harsh,&rdquo; he said. &ldquo;If you look at my comments, I do not think they are over the top. I have to answer questions after games and if I had said Mark Clattenburg had a good game in the derby, everybody in the city - including Liverpool supporters - would tell me I was wrong.</p>

&ldquo;My words may have been on the edge, but they do not warrant an FA charge. We should all be allowed freedom of speech to talk to the media after the game, it is getting to the stage when I won&rsquo;t be able to say anything.&rdquo;</p>
