| “I’ve a holiday to take first, but I’ve already spoken to Davie (Farrell) about players and their plans for the pre-season, and I’m looking forward to what lies ahead,” he said.
“Dave MacKinnon first told me about the possibility of this a few weeks ago and, since then, it’s been rattling around in my brain.
“I’ve been thinking about the job and what players I might be able to bring in, because I’m told there’s an array of young talent here, but we might need more experience. I had offers to play up here and back down south, but, once I knew about this, it was really what I wanted. I’d thought about going down the coaching route, but, when an opportunity like this one arises, it’s too good to turn down.” |
