Good evening and welcome to Clyde One's Super Scoreboard.

What does Kasper Schmeichel's retirement mean for Celtic?

Andrew McLean 0:20
Kasper Schmeichel announces his retirement as Celtic's managerial hunt continues. Stephen Naismith thinks Rangers are getting the best player in Scotland in Lauren Shankland and Hearts make a signing of their own with Cammy Devlin and Craig Gordon's future still unsure. I'm Andrew McLean. Joining me in the studio fresh off of signing for a new club is Brian Graham. Congratulations. First of all, Ross County back there. Was that a third time?
Brian Graham 0:45
Third time, yes. Thank you very much. Second biggest transfer yesterday was Shanklands after mine. No, only joking. It's a club I've known very well. It's now going to be my third spell. I'm looking forward to it. I've obviously had a couple of bad years but I'm looking forward to going back up there and playing football and enjoying it again.
Andrew McLean 1:00
Were there any thoughts of packing it in this summer? Always wanting to play. Keep going.
Brian Graham 1:05
No I think when you get to my age people see your age but they don't see the stuff that goes on in the background like I've missed nine training sessions this year I've been available for every single game and when you look at the strikers that were at the club at Falk at the time I was the only fit striker for every single game over the course of the season so that's quite incredible at 38 years of age so I still believe I've got it in the body, I want to go one more year, I want to go enjoy it, it's a club that I know really well, just going up there yesterday, seeing wee Suze and the Kit women and stuff like that, it was special when you walk back in and you can see your posters and with the time gone by with the teammates of previous years and it was nice, I took my daughter up with me yesterday, so we had a good wee road trip yesterday, it was all good.
Andrew McLean 1:41
Well, there you go. Maybe you want to put a question to Brian about his move, maybe his time at Falkirk last season.

Who is Lawrence Shankland and why is his signing significant for Rangers?

Andrew McLean 1:46
Of course, there are some huge stories doing the rounds. Lauren Shanklin signing for Rangers from Hearts yesterday. I'm sure there's still some opinions out there on that from the Rangers. side of things from the heart side of things 0141 951 1025 the news today that casper schmeichel has announced his retirement maybe that's got you thinking about celtics goalkeeper situation celtic fans is it going to be williamie sinisalo going forward is there another goalkeeper that's needed to come in to be the number one you can tell us and what about the managerial situation of course still not sorted is it going to be martin o'neill that's going to get the job for another year do you think there's a better candidate or a different candidate
Andrew McLean 2:26
that should get the job and Hearts making some moves of their own, but still some uncertainty around the likes of Cammie Devlin and Craig Gordon. So any thoughts on any of those topics, 0141 951 1025 on the phones. You are on for the first time in the summer show, the one hour show, the big story last night broke as we came on air, Lauren Shankland signing for Rangers from Hearts. What did you make of that when it initially came about? Was that a bit of a surprise to you that that move came about?
Brian Graham 2:55
I'm guessing that the fee was or the lack of fee that is the big one for me because like a good friend of mine is a Rangers fan and I was speaking to him about it and I says to him how much did they pay and he said oh no there was a clause in his contract so that kind of shocked me a little bit because obviously you see him signing a three year deal last year but you've got to remember Shanklin is now in his 30s he's a boyhood Rangers fan an opportunity he waited so long last summer waiting on Rangers coming it didn't happen for whatever reason with the different people that were at the club now he's got his opportunity to go to Rangers it's a boyhood dream of his I wish him well but at the same time I think he'll bring the best out to Charmitty
Brian Graham 3:31
I think he's been when he first came in a lot of people hit him with a stick but the big man showed that he can score goals and he scored some fantastic goals along the way and I just think Shanklin's cleverness because he's a very very clever footballer will bring out the best in that young lad and he'll improve him and if they do play the two up front that'll be a strike force to be
