    Given his hamstring is currently knackered, Ivan's mum would win a race with Brandon......

    100 metre sprints count for nowt in football , or George McNeil would have been another Pele.

    Its the 10, 20 or even 30 metre dashes that break defences.

    Lawrie Reilly once said he was the slowest man at Easter Road over 100 yards, but the fastest over 10 and that's what was his greatest asset.

    Very true....

    I believe a certain Craig Levein was at one point the fastest man in scottish football and he defenitely wasnt another Pele!

    Lineker was the same but he was lightning over less than 5 yards. Just enough for him to nip in ahead of his markers.

    Might be even first 5 yards that are important. That is more than enough to get space for a killer pass, win a loose ball or score a goal. I'd say Ivan over the 100m but it would be interesting to see who is quickest off the very short distances.

    By the time he'd stopped halfway through for his second pint Ivan would have long overtaken him.

    Oh Ivan definitely.

    Ask them to dribble round cones half way up witha. Ball at their foot and it’s Barker.

    But Ivan for raw pace... and greatness :)

    Has to be Barker. Ivan is a bit long in the tooth now and a squirrel's legs are too short...

    Thank you Kato. And he wasn't wearing those wee slipper things they wear nowadays.

    The man who played at left-back behind him wasn't any slowcoach either.

    No probs, Arthur was faster the George McNeil on his day. Would beat Ivan, Barker and Boyle no bother.

    From reputation Joe Baker was no slouch in youth.

    Hibs also had a player in the 30's Arthur Milne who my Ol' Grandpa described as "faster than a greyhound".

    Ivan's the fastest player I've seen. And I include Kris Killen in that.
