Halliday says media work won't kill his Well career

- ANDY NEWPORT

ANDY HALLIDAY insists he won't let radio kill his career as a Premiership star.

The Hearts midfielder has joined Motherwell on loan for the remainder of the season having struggled to get game time at Tynecastle.

The former Rangers favourite turned 32 last October and knows he's approaching the twilight of his career.

He's already started making plans for life after football having taken his first steps into the media world with Radio Clyde's Super Scoreboard and alongside Si Ferry on the footballer-turned-podcaster's hit Open Goal channel.

But Halliday insists he won't be swapping running down touchlines for broadcasting across the airwaves until he's good and ready.

"It's a simple answer - I'll play for as long as I possibly can," said the versatile midfield ace.
