Phil McCracken Posted August 19, 2014 Report Share Posted August 19, 2014 Martin canning would have been an ideal experienced, big, dominating centre half. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frank McGarvey' wonky legs Posted August 19, 2014 Report Share Posted August 19, 2014 Always felt he caused us problems but not sure he would fit into our system a bit like Harkins. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FTOF Posted August 19, 2014 Report Share Posted August 19, 2014 Was this not also the Aberdeen one? I always thought he looked quite handy at right back for them. Thistle fans rated him highly. However, he was always injured and left them to get a club closer to home in the Birmingham area. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foxbar_bud Posted August 19, 2014 Report Share Posted August 19, 2014 Thistle fans rated him highly. However, he was always injured and left them to get a club closer to home in the Birmingham area. That was also the reason he left aberdeen, only to show up at Thistle after failing to get a club Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ulysses Posted August 19, 2014 Report Share Posted August 19, 2014 I would take Darren Barr if he was available. Good cover for a few positions. I have a sneaky feeling that we'll end up signing him in a panic. I think he wants a club around the Glasgow area, having been on trial at both Thistle and Motherwell. Would be an underwhelming signing. In saying that, if he was signed purely as a squad player/cover then I'd be fine with it, as he can play a few positions. Just wouldn't want to sign him as first choice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dakota7 Posted August 19, 2014 Report Share Posted August 19, 2014 Barr is not good enough even as a squad player. We need a proper centre half. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saint Garf Posted August 20, 2014 Report Share Posted August 20, 2014 I think Barr's had a bad rap for a while due to all the hype about him as a youngster. He was vastly overrated by Falkirk and the media. He should have never played for Scotland, but that's not his fault, what's he supposed to say "nah, sorry I don't fancy playing for my country, I'm not quite good enough", I don't think so...he's a decent player with lots of experience, I can't imagine he'd cost the earth, so I wouldn't mind him signing.

JJ McG Posted August 26, 2014 Report Share Posted August 26, 2014 Are we still interested in bringing anyone in? I thought the signing of Osbourne might be us finished for the window. I'm sure Osbourne can play centre half and right back as well as holding midfield so I think we are done with signings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
