Barry to become a future sheep?
Pars midfielder Barry Nicholson has his heart all but set on a move to Aberdeen in the summer, according to his agent Kenny Moyes.

Speaking exclusively to the Press and Journal Moyes stated how the lure of Jimmy Calderwood and Jimmy Nicholl could prove too hard to resist for the Scotland internationalist.

"Barry has not spoken publicly about his future and he is such a good lad he feels it would be unfair of him to say the wrong thing," said Moyes, "The truth is, though, I am sure he would love the opportunity to play for Aberdeen. The simple fact Jimmy Calderwood and Jimmy Nicholl are there makes it an attractive proposition."

He continued, "Everyone knows Aberdeen are interested in signing Barry, and it is really up to the two clubs to negotiate and come to an agreement. It might be easier said than done, but it is for them to sort out."

And perhaps most conclusively of all, Moyes remarked, "Everybody has agreed it is probably time for Barry to leave Dunfermline. I think if they were relegated, he would go."

After failing to agree terms on an extended contract to keep him at the club, it would appear as though, if Aberdeen can come up with the cash, Barry Nic looks to have played his final game in a Pars top.
