Could be the best news for a while.
Welcome Leighton and (no pressure! but) let's hope you can help Reevesy fire us into 5th spot and a repeat performance of our last time in the play-offs  ;)

Well chuffed with this, one of the few opposition players I noticed this season.

Welcome Leighton and good luck at Alty.

As he has the same name as Jim Leighton, I can only assume this is a bad signing and should be removed from the playing squad forthwith !!!

McGivern-Henshaw, eh?

Good to see Lee Sinnott raising the tone of the squad by recruiting someone with a hyphenated surname.

On the evidence of his two performances against us this season, this is a very promising signing.

Great signing, perfect replacement for jack. Using loan players earlier in the campaign might mean we have the funds available to bring in a couple of bits of quality at the business end.

For one reason or another I rarely if ever get to see us play Vauxhall Motors, so I'm afraid this gent's name means nothing to me. I wish him luck, though.

It's a love / hate thing for me.  I hated him when he played against us, but I love that we've signed him.  I think he and Reeves will work very well together.

It seems Liverpool is very short for a city: (from the main site)" Leighton Terence McGivern-Henshaw (d.o.b. 2.6.84 in Liverpool; height 5ft 8ins)"

If we'd have signed a 15 goal Conference striker at this time last season I doubt we would have gone down.
