If twice is a coincidence and three times is a trend, then these five recent pictures of “Saint” Jim Murphy – the martyr who endured an egging for all our sins – from the print media surely tell us something interesting.

That one’s from the Press & Journal.

A Daily Record effort.

The Guardian has a shot.

And another one (not the same pic as #2).

And a third go in December alone.

We’re sure there’s no reason for it.

If he grows a beard, though, start to worry.
