| 21. Author: Connor560 Date: Tue 11th Nov 2025. 17:22 The striker who Falkirk have in on loan Trey Samuel-Ogunsuyi is absolutely miles off it. Spoke to a few people at Falkirk on Saturday who all thought Barney was a better option which is hard to disagree with based on what I`ve seen this season from both. I said when we signed Barney that I wasn`t keen. Far too raw, not had the quality but im delighted he seems to be proving me wrong so far! C'mon Ye Pars! Reply |
| 22. Author: Jeffery Date: Tue 11th Nov 2025. 18:42 Barney has been excellent for us. I also wasn`t sure of the signing but he looks absolutely lethal. I don`t think he really suits the way Falkirk play at the moment. Reply |

| 25. Author: AlterPar Date: Tue 11th Nov 2025. 19:26 He has been a very effective signing. Trust Neil to find another to replace him though! Reply |

| 27. Author: parsmad68 Date: Tue 11th Nov 2025. 20:22 I wonder how Barney feels about returning to Falkirk. Reply |
| 28. Author: Bandy Date: Tue 11th Nov 2025. 21:35 How would anyone feel about returning to Falkirk? In all seriousness - hes not experienced the rivalry between our clubs, so I don`t think he`d be averse to moving here...but ultimately Falkirk are flying in the Premiership right now, so if he has the opportunities for premiership games with them, he should take it.

| 29. Author: Jealous Furniture Date: Tue 11th Nov 2025. 21:57 Rudden will be back but with Kane struggling with injuries we could really do with hanging on to Stewart too, hopefully a loan till the summer at least? Reply |
| 30. Author: LochgellyAlbert Date: Tue 11th Nov 2025. 22:27 What`s his contract at Falkirk? Reply |

| 32. Author: Indiapar1 Date: Wed 12th Nov 2025. 09:22 I think Barney has come on leaps and bounds with us. He has done well so far but you have to recognise its just been a few games. He needs to prove himself over a whole season. My gut tells me he will get more game time with us over a season than with Falkirk, and will develop more fully under the stewardship if the Pars management. Sometimes you have to walk before you can run. At 20 years old his best times are ahead, so small steps, learn the game in a first team competitive environment, gain experience and kick on next year.

| 33. Author: jake89 Date: Wed 12th Nov 2025. 09:35 As much as it pains me to say it, Falkirk are a level above. St Johnstone are pretty much walking the league despite being awful in the Premier. So it`s a reasonable step up for Barney. However, it`s always hard to tell and it doesn`t just come down to a single player. Reply |
| 34. Author: wee eck Date: Wed 12th Nov 2025. 10:09 There`s a full article on COWS about Barney and his meteoric rise to international football. Reply |

St Johnstone are pretty much walking the league despite being awful in the Premier." Once Valakari got the team going, they were competitive. They had 14 points from their first 20 games up until the turn of the year. They took 18 points from the next 16, but then lost the penultimate game to Hearts and were relegated. They also got to the semi-final of the Scottish Cup. Similarly, Ross County finished above them in the Premier League and appear to be not very good in the Championship - unless a team from Fife rocks up to play them. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Equal rights and justice in this time Reply |

| 38. Author: Bandy Date: Wed 12th Nov 2025. 17:09 There don`t seem to be that many bulgarian strikers playing in Italy. Possibly Mert Durmush, who plays for Ternana in Serie C, or Adrian Raychev who plays in Serie B for Frosinone on loan from Pisa. Reply |
| 39. Author: wee eck Date: Wed 12th Nov 2025. 17:19 I thought the SFA (?) wouldn`t authorise that transfer in the summer because the player didn`t meet the required criteria? Is that likely to change in January? Reply |
| 40. Author: Paralex Date: Wed 12th Nov 2025. 18:44 Barney`s main strength seems to be as a penalty box poacher. He has been good at anticipating the ball into the box. Andy Tod also has that ability, as do Chris Kane and Zach Rudden going by his limited appearances for us. That`s something that Lewis McCann never had. Barney may be deficient in other skills and I doubt he could become the main striker for Falkirk in the Premier League. I would think the best option for him in honing his skills and getting the playing time he needs, is staying with us till the end of the season. Reply |
