Prendy_1984 Posted August 6, 2009 Posted August 6, 2009 From Blackburn. Their web site says he's a midfielder Quote
Prendy_1984 Posted August 6, 2009 Posted August 6, 2009 Has also impressed at centre half apparently Quote
RoytonBlueLad Posted August 6, 2009 Posted August 6, 2009 Signed a successful trial with the club in 2007/08, Alex has proved to be a versatile addition to the Rovers squad. Initially joined as a midfielder, but has also impressed at centre half and right back for the Reserves this term. Signed a new deal with Rovers to keep him at the club until the summer of 2011.

madaboutoafc Posted August 6, 2009 Posted August 6, 2009 (edited) Who? :shock from what i ave seen he is a 19 yr old midfielder,signed from ashton utd in 2008 says on br site that he is a box to box mid with an eye for goal.theres this as well http://www.rovers.co.uk/page/ProfilesDetai...3~44772,00.html Edited August 6, 2009 by madaboutoafc Quote
razza699 Posted August 6, 2009 Posted August 6, 2009 Right back who can play midfield...... Least we will have a strong reserve side. Quote
singe Posted August 6, 2009 Posted August 6, 2009 This flexibility seems to be a theme. A fluid 1-8-1/8-1-1 diamond/triangle formation I predict. Quote
leeslover Posted August 6, 2009 Posted August 6, 2009 Midfielder is he a Swede? He looks like he should be in school! Hope he sticks to the squash on social events. Quote
oafcprozac Posted August 6, 2009 Author Posted August 6, 2009 Here Certainly a Penney type of player, ie one who can play in a number of positions. Hopefully he'll be a good 'un and do well until the ctocks get fit! Welcome to BP Alex, great surname! If he's tenacious in the tackle can we nickname him ':censored:-Bone'!!! Quote
oliver Posted August 6, 2009 Posted August 6, 2009 I reckon only an emergency signing as DP stated earlier in the week to cover for Worthy. Quote
razza699 Posted August 6, 2009 Posted August 6, 2009 I think we are going to play all down each flank with all the wing backs in a line Quote
singe Posted August 6, 2009 Posted August 6, 2009 I reckon only an emergency signing as DP stated earlier in the week to cover for Worthy. It says a one month dela ont he official, so I am sure you are right. Also another signing looks imminent Quote

He will certainly add to the spine of the team. Quote
jonnyl@tic Posted August 6, 2009 Posted August 6, 2009 team mate Blackman young striker or has Byfield now signed??? Quote
Alec1954 Posted August 6, 2009 Posted August 6, 2009 I saw Rowney play a couple of time pre-season and he looked terrific. Why bring in other team's stiffs when we have our own? Quote
oafcprozac Posted August 6, 2009 Author Posted August 6, 2009 I saw Rowney play a couple of time pre-season and he looked terrific. Why bring in other team's stiffs when we have our own? As good as Rowney has looked Alec, this new boy can cover a number of positions so good move imo. Let young Chris continue to develop in the ressies, he won't have had loads of footie last season would he? Quote
shefflatic Posted August 6, 2009 Posted August 6, 2009 let the guy manage ffs!! he knows what he is doing, unlike our last incumbant. Quote
TheBigDog Posted August 6, 2009 Posted August 6, 2009 let the guy manage ffs!! he knows what he is doing, unlike our last incumbant. Agree but just how many midfielders do we need? Furman, Purdie, Worthington, Stephens, Lee, Whittaker etc etc Quote
singe Posted August 6, 2009 Posted August 6, 2009 (edited) Agree but just how many midfielders do we need? Furman, Purdie, Worthington, Stephens, Lee, Whittaker etc etc Yes but Worthington and Purdie are likely to be injured (as are Eardley & Jacobson), he's only here for a month as cover for one of 3 people!

Lookers_Carl Posted August 6, 2009 Posted August 6, 2009 Look at the end of the article Stay tuned to oldhamathletic.co.uk for possibly more signing news later today! Possibly a 2nd? Quote
ste1987 Posted August 6, 2009 Posted August 6, 2009 Look at the end of the article Stay tuned to oldhamathletic.co.uk for possibly more signing news later today! Possibly a 2nd? Yep, I get the impression this will be day which will knacker the old F5 key! Quote
Killens_physio Posted August 6, 2009 Posted August 6, 2009 Yep, I get the impression this will be day which will knacker the old F5 key! Hopefully it will be one of those players who play in a pairing, just in front of the keeper and just inside the two full backs.......what do they call them again? Quote
jonnyl@tic Posted August 6, 2009 Posted August 6, 2009 Ackey turned Gamekeeper...lol. I expect a better class of signing now Ackey in control. Gavin Gunning big strong centre half just signed for Tranny from Blackburn Quote
creepy Posted August 6, 2009 Posted August 6, 2009 Looks like Worthington is struggling then, thats the only reason he has signed Quote
