Hamid Barr

[David Holden]

Hamid Barr has signed for the club today, he spent the beginning of this season helping St Albans rise to the top of the Ryman League, and prior to that he was at QPR and Fisher.

 

I'll do some research and let you have more information shortly. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/cool_shades.gif" alt="" />

According to the St Albans site and they rated him but thought he d gone to Crystal Palace on trial , also a bit of a legend at Crockenhill , if thats saying much!

[Matt (GNFC)]

He's not really a forward is he Dave ? Sounds a good a signing who can play in midfield but hows he going to fit in?? Isnt it a good option to try and transfer list some of our players and get some cash in while/if we can?

[Slartibartfast]

It doesn't seem like a good time to let people go while we have so many players injured, however if Smudger had to go to make room for Kwashi then who makes room for Barr?

 

I guess Andy knows best who we can or can't afford but at present we seem to have plenty of good midfielders and only the walking wounded in defence.

Would think Austin Berkley. Seems like a bit of a luxury player from what ive seen of him. Seems to have a good football brain, zero pace though and dont think he's going to be anything more than a squad player. If Kwashi gets injured then we always have strouts or boothy who can cover that position and im sure he's more expensive than Boothy.

My source tells me that Hamid went from Fisher to QPR and then to St. Albans and that he is an exceptional STRIKER. <img src="/forums/images/icons/smile.gif" alt="" />

 

However, other sources have said since, that Hamid wasn't present on Saturday and that he has in fact signed for Carlisle Utd. <img src="/forums/images/icons/frown.gif" alt="" />

 

Has anyone any solid info?

[David Holden]

He hasn't signed for Carlisle, but he is there on trial.

 

We should know more at the end of the week.

[I.C.@G&NFC]

Thanks for keeping us up-dated, Dave.

 

Munden doesn't rate Tostoa, in fact he doesn't think much of any one in any team, but when I asked him about Hamid Barr he rated him very highly, and thinks he's an outstanding player.

 

I hope the trial at Carlisle doesn't come to anything and he joins us.

[Alan ( GNFC )]

Carlisle or Northfleet .

Not like Portway then , who likes to be home for tea .

So if he signs for Carlisle, we will get a transfer fee???

[Matt (GNFC)]

Just to add that if Carlisle are to sign Hamid they will not be hanging around as both their 1st choice forwards, Trevor Molloy and Richie Foran, are currently suspended for 2 and 3 games respectively, and he would probably be asked to play immediately. Carlisle, under Roddy Collins, have taken large numbers of triallists (particularly from Ireland) and many have not been considered suitable. I feel things will be clear very quickly, but after Tuesday night do we still need him??

[Guest]

I may have misunderstood the current situation, but hasn't the transfer window closed for league clubs so Carlisle would not be able to sign him?

[David Holden]

The FA have advised league (and conference) clubs that they can continue to deal until they have clarification from FIFA.

[GAZ]

Well if the club have put on news they have sighned Hamid that should be end of story and he must be a gravesend player or was the news speculation. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/director.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/director.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/director.gif" alt="" />

According to the website "footballtransfers.info" Hamid Barr has today signed for GNFC

[David Holden]

That's not quite true, although it is in the list dated today, if you look at the transfer date it is last Friday.

 

I have spoken to Andy in the last few minutes and there is still no news.

[David Holden]

The club has now agreed terms with Hamid and he may feature in Sunday's match at Chester.

[Jessica]

Looking forward to seeing this chap, but who do we drop to play him??

[David Holden]

Well Jessica, nobody said he was playing, but if he were, then it may be Paul Sturgess.

 

Speculation should stop here I think!
