Default New brakes binding on mk4 golf tdi

Ive just fitted new front discs and pads to a 02 mk4 golf tdi, everything done to the letter yet i took it for a spin, came back and the discs were bloody hot and gone blue, could feel them binding...any ideas why?

well they feel like the brakes are slightly on all the time, the car seems to be holding back, would explain the heating of discs etc, but not sure why it happened in the first place!
