If he has anywhere near as much impact as his brother, he'll do well.

Saw him for Rochdale and struck me as a similar sort of playing style to Danny Cashman - I just hope he shows the desire to be a hero here.

Welcome Alex and good luck.

I've just noticed that Elliot seems to have lost his starting place at Barrow too...

A decent player and a useful addition in the short term but I can't help but think that a pacy winger would have been a better fit.

Sorry, I missed the earlier signing. Presumably the Bolton lad is a winger.

Alty press releases describes him as "a free-scoring winger who can also play in central midfield".

'Free-scoring' does seem a trifle generous, but let's hope that it turns out to be an inspired prophecy!
