Brian Graham no longer wants to dignify those comments by even directly referring to the person who made them.
But he’s convinced hers will soon be appearing on a Scotland team-sheet. Partick Thistle striker Graham doubles up as the head coach of the Jags women’s team. But he’s been forced to take on a counselling role too after teenage keeper Easdon was disgracefully targeted online by former Rangers flop Joey Barton following a mistake in this season’s Sky Sports Cup Final loss to the Ibrox side.
“She took it in her stride, she didn’t let it distract her and she has carried on training well and working hard. She’s a fantastic talent and there is no point even mentioning his name, you just put him in the bottom of the bin because he’s irrelevant in this situation. We’ll just look after the young girl and she’ll look after herself. She has a good family behind her as well.
“It’s water off a duck’s back. But his comments were out of order. Listen, she’s 17 but she’s such a mature girl. She’s placid, so quiet at times you wouldn’t know she’s in the room. But on the pitch, you don’t get many 17-year-old’s barking orders and she’ll do it at her experienced captain in front of her. And she’ll develop and get even better the next couple of years. Fingers crossed she can be Scotland’s No1 one day.
