He was interviewed for the Hibs job shortly before Motherwell and the story of both interviews was much the same.
He had a depth of knowledge on every player at the clubs which was incredible, right down to the youths. He also had a file of transfer targets for every position which was also incredibly detailed, with several targets and how their qualities would complement other targets.
It's fair to say the board weren't unhappy to see him go, but they were certainly extremely impressed at the outset.
Some obvious issues with man management, but I remember at Craigan's testimonial race night all of the younger players were on soft drinks as he had asked all of the players to be - the senior pros were all defiantly on the beer.
