    Has there been any explanation as to why he's still on the air? They mock him for it from time to time but I can't recall anyone stating why he's not 'retired' officially.

     

    There are plenty other mediocre pundits and journos so not sure why he's on all the time.

     

    He'll have retired from the BBC staff but become a self-employed freelance meaning he'll be paid per shift but probably at a higher hourly rate than he was getting when on the payrole.

    Graham seems to struggle to stay any length of time at a club. He did ok for us last time; in a season where we were incredibly low scoring and he was in and out the team, he still managed 10 goals.

    I don't know how much better a striker we are likely to get, and if he's part of a Scougall-O'Halloran-Graham triangle of destruction, then I'm all for it!

    If he's to be the marquee signing, however, then I'm disappointed.

    If he's any sort of signing then I'm disappointed. He's just not good enough.

    I quite like it in football when players/ coaches go to a club because they were a fan, or have some affiliation with them, rather than the usual purely for money, understandable though that is.  It was why I never shared the hatred of Paul Sturrock when he left us, as he played his whole career at Utd and was a club legend, so I could see the attraction for him.

    It feels a bit different here though. I get that he might well be a hibs fan, but the fact that he did similar to us 2 years ago to join their biggest rivals suggests that it isn't really just about joining his boyhood heroes. I would think if it was Aberdeen or rangers then it would have been the same outcome...  He just wants to go to a bigger club to get more money.  

    Once again it wasn't so much Sturrock going to United that was the problem it was that he had said he wasn't interested a couple of days before he joined them. As Random says if there was honesty it wouldn't really be an issue. You can't criticise someone for taking their dream job.
