We actually had a bit of difficulty signing him up when we did even though he was 'only' at Maine road.
There were one or two bigger clubs sniffing and his family were trying to get him in at Utd through agents/contacts but after a bit of perseverance we managed to nab him.

Hi, it's Oldham Athletic here...
Please please please can you take (insert player here) off us...He's really good, honest!!
Kind regards, Oldham

According to Barrow's forum he doesn't fit in with Wilds work ethic! That doesn't fit in with what Unsworth said in his first presser though, he was big on players working hard.
Barrow looking at Jordan Lyden to replace him.
You don't chuck £12m down the drain and not be able to find a couple of extra quid for a few decent signings, I don't care who you are!
And he knows full well they'll be an uptake in season tickets and match day revenue...
Super, super Frank
Super Frankie Rothwell
Over to you Frankie boy,
Loosen the purse strings for 3 or 4 decent signings and we'll all be on board HMS piss the league.
P.s... Sheridan's blue white army
