What do we all think. Was he the guy that mopped up everything away at the shay last season?

If it was , a good signing i reckon.

He is a recognised left back, under 30, with plenty of lower FL and Conf experience.........just what we want. It also looks like he is fairly local, so he may have other irons in the fire if he has taken the big jump into part time football.

Welcome aboard Matt - you have made a good decision

After the past two seasons it wouldnt be a bad thing to have two recognised left backs! I cant see this putting brownhill off, besides doughty plays left midfield so it looks like a bloody good signing to me.

Welcome on board matt, and good luck.

Praise to GH on yet another fantastic signing. This closed season has been the best one for years, it cant be just me who is feeling that we're starting to assemble a very competative side for next year. Im made up about this one!

We just keep signing quality players. Best preseason signings for as long as I can remember

Another top signing, and the squad is looking really healthy. A couple of signings in July and getting Brownhill will put us in a great position, especially if we can get some loan players with the same quality as last season. I would absolutely love it if we were able to get Liam King, if it's true that he is available.

Haven't we been trying to sign this chap for a while?

Is this the player who was going to turn part-time last summer....until Halifax increased his terms?

Just shows what a clean financial slate can do. By the way, it would be interesting to see where we would've finished  last year in a table starting when the transfer window opened mid season. To have finished 1 point from safety after 10 home defeats before Christmas would suggest we're not the guaranteed relegation fodder some would believe.

This is a fantastic signing, well done to Graham for all the guys he has brought in so far. We're starting to shape up quite nicely by the looks of things and I can't remember a more exciting close season since this time ten years ago when we were assembling our Unibond title winning squad. What exciting days those were as well!

He is a good player.

Likes to get forward as well if I remember rightly and got a good cross on him.  Maybe left mid if we get Brownhill or vice versa?

Great signing.

I don't know anything about this guy I don't think, however sounds like what we need!

No disrespect to Warren but I don't think he's quite conference standard.
