Scots plan global hunt for coach

SCOTTISH rugby chiefs last night promised a worldwide search in their quest to replace Ian McGeechan as national coach.

McGeechan, the three-times Lions supremo who masterminded Test series triumphs against Australia and South Africa, will relinquish his post after next year's World Cup.

McGeechan is to take over from Jim Telfer as Scotland's director of rugby following the global spectacular Down Under.
