    An exceedingly decent pedigree for a bottom 6 SPL team.

    Squeaky bum-time at Killie if Falkirk strengthen with this kind of quality in the window

    Agreed.

    I'm sure a Hibs manager (JC?) looked at him when he was with Southampton(?) and I was hoping he would sign.

    Knew him when he was at Sunderland, unlucky with 2 leg breaks in quick succession.

    Nice guy and was a good player when fit, good luck to him.

    What pedigree?

    His caps came in 2002-3 it looks like.

    Since then he's played about 80 games which included just one proper run of games which was at Cork City. That includes 9 at Livingston.

    Is it because his name is similar to David Healy?

    Im a bit surprised at this.As I remember he is a little like Boyd in that he scores a lot of goals without contributing much else though at least he tries a leg.For a team down the bottom of the league I think it is a fantastic signing as his goals could be the difference between the drop and staying up.

    We're getting rid of Caldwell - he's the only one in the current side who fits that bill.

    Add in Boruc, McGeady and Hinkel and you're getting closer to the total
    This is how it feels

    Cool

    Strange one this. Last week Eddie Can't was telling us that players that were not good enough for Hibs, were not good enough for Falkirk. Well this boy is a good few qualities short of what you need to get into our team. So it should follow then, that....ach, I will let him work it out for himself.

    Great signing for Falkirk. If he can recreate his Preston form in front of goals they'll be laughing
    There's only one thing better than a Hibs calendar and that's two Hibs calendars

    To be fair to the guy, Colin Healy was destined for great things until injuries ruined him. Was exceptionally unlucky not to go to the 2002 World Cup, he was called up when Keane initially walked out but by the time Keane had decided he was definately going home a few days later, it was too late for a replacement to be called up and Healy missed out. He could do a job for Falkirk alright, it depends on the injuries.

    David Healy, on the other hand, is just a prick.

    Indeed. He's a midfielder that's never played for Fulham.
