Lancashire Cricket is delighted to announce the appointment of former player and England international Graham Onions as full-time bowling coach.
The 38-year-old retired from professional cricket last season on medical grounds but returns to Emirates Old Trafford to work with the Club’s bowlers on a full-time basis.
In his new role, he will offer specialist bowling support and coaching to the First XI and Second XI bowling contingent as well as supporting Academy and age-group prospects.

Good for him! Actually turned out to be a good move for him when he left Durham.

Top bowler and top bloke, hope it works out for him.
A dark stain on DCCC how they handled his departure IMO.

Very much agree. It was a bad decision, handled badly and made so much worse by following it up by signing an older player to a deal that we refused bunny.
Wish him all the best, and as you say i think it was a massive mistake by durham. lost any credibility we may have had in feeling hard done by when we had players leaving us, we treated bunny really really poorly.
Just really strange too
Lost loads of senior players
Wouldn’t give one of our best players a 2 year deal
According to the interviews he gave it was Botham’s call.

At the time I thought it was fair enough the club where skint and Bunny wanted a 2 year deal and Colly was still at the club taking up a lot of the money available in his salary. But after they released him they signed Rimmington on a 2 year deal which never did add up.
Can only think Rimmington was on a lot less, even if the length was the same

Probably but must have been a decent deal for him to move his family over here with him.

you'd hope so as he was nowhere near the player that graham onions was
Bunny was offered a 1 year contract with the option of a 2nd depending on fitness. Durham were understandably cautious after the way Harmy behaved during his 4 year contract. Nor do they possess the financial muscle of Lancashire.
