New Signing- Keiran Walmsley
« on: January 05, 2012, 08:32:40 PM »

Altrincham FC have signed midfielder Kieran Walmsley (d.o.b. 11 December, 1983 in Preston) on a season-long loan from Kendal Town. In May, 2011, he signed a two-year contract with the Cumbrians. The Kendal Town website describes him as "Kendal's set-piece specialist" and "renowned across non-league football for his aptitude from deadball situations and his incredible ability for pinpoint cross-field passes... He is equally dependable at right wing-back where he made his name, or indeed anywhere across the midfield... Kieran has previously played for Morecambe and Fleetwood Town".
Altrincham have also extended the loan from Alfreton Town of centre-back Adrian Hawes. Adie will now stay at Moss Lane till at least 28 January, 2012. So far, he has started four games for The Robins.

Another loan, but I am pleased it's a season long, not just a month one.

Let's not get over excited, he's not going to anywhere near as fantastic as Wesley Baynes, bet he doesn't even have gloves and bright blue boots.

Reading Kendal's website/forum shows him to be a crowd favourite and first on the team sheet etc. He also signed a 2 yr deal with them at the beginning of the season.

Why do you think they've agreed to loan him out???

Fresh from signing a two-year contract that will keep him at the club until at least the end of the 2012/13 season, Kendal's set-piece specialist looks set to once again terrify goalkeepers and opposition defences in equal measure.

Reknowned across non-league football for his aptitude from deadball situations and his incredible ability for pinpoint cross-field passes, Walmsley is one of the key players at Kendal Town and every week is one of the first names on Manager Lee Ashcroft's teamsheet.

He is equally dependable at right wingback where he made his name, or indeed anywhere across the midfield. Dedicated and determined; Kieran is a role model for Kendal's younger players to aspire to.

Kieran has previously played for Morecambe and Fleetwood Town.

Excellent news, we need a midfielder who can score goals.

Always good when they are a crowd favourite at the old club as well...

Seems to get some decent goals for Fleetwood..

I reckon he says "I want to join Altrincham" and they've said "how much are they offering" we've said "ermmmm nowt"" and then he has said he really wants to go in a Lawton/Danylyk stylee

Yeah I don't think they will have been keen, but he's not going say alright then I'll just stay here eating mint cake instead of playing for the biggest club outside the conference because they won't pay a fee.
