Darren Barr

[Franck is God]

I would expect 4 x his current salary to be no more than £3k per week.

He is at the end of his first professional contract that I doubt will be worth much more than £500-£800 per week. Falkirk probably can't afford to go much more than £1200-1500 for their top players so the likes of Aberdeen, Dundee Utd, Hibs & Hearts could all over him favourable terms.

I suppose it's just a case of who does he want to play for? If he has any sense he will avoid the Old Firm and he could get lost in the Championship.

With a smaller squad under Yogi would we be paying £2000 - £3000 per week for our top players?

Barr signed a renewal 3-year contract in 2007 - would you reckon £500-£700 per week?

He's 5'10" according to the Falkirk FC site

Where would Yogi play him?

He's an inch taller than a certain John Henderson Blackley who turned in some more than useful performances in central defense

Sloop was a god though. Probaby the best sweeper Hibs have had when I have been watching them (ignoring Frank and Pat, who both started in midfield)

And he played beside a centre half who was no giant (under 6 foot)

[Cropley10]

Personally think it's highly unlikely that Barr will sign for us.

Hope I'm wrong.

That's why Celtic kept on scoring five & six goals against us

Has the avarage height of football players not increased by about 4 inches since then?

While their ability to control a football has decreased by about 60%?

And no use .... if it's "Cilla" Black you are talking about!

I'd almost wager that the real Cilla would have done a better job against Dixie Deans.

Definitely the weakest link in the Tornadoes for me.

[Gerrintaethem]

All this talk about height is a non starter. One of the games finest ever centre backs in Fabio Cannavaro is only 5 ' 9.

This is the interesting bit for me. We are all very presumptious that he will come to us but arguably Rantic + these 4 teams could all be interested in him..will we really win a bidding war (salary) against these guys. Obviously hope we do but think we should lower our optimism a wee bit.
