In a statement, Jason Allardyce, Scottish editor of The Sunday Times, said: â??We are thrilled that Graeme has decided to join our team. â??He has a remarkable wealth of experience to draw on as a player and manager at the top levels of Scottish, English and European football, and is widely respected for his no-nonsense attitude towards the game. â??Graeme is a fantastic signing and will complement the insights offered by Hugh McIlvanney and Douglas Alexander.â? The announcement follows the news that the paperâ??s publisher, News International, has secured the UK rights to screen clips of the Barclays Premier League for the next three seasons.
