Some nice positive comments there and that's before it's revealed who the player is. Let's hope he is a great signing.

Surely the newsletter-getters will let us know before Twitter does

Wonder if Wayne will pop down to watch when he’s back from America

[Mark Johnson]

Confirmed as John Rooney

[Steeley]

Decent that. We are assembling quite a celeb connected squad.

[DaveP]

starting to feel cautiously optimistic.

The test will be can we sign some decent defenders ie proper full backs and a couple of centre halves. Would love Evatt to be a couple of years younger and still a player.

Could prove to be a very good signing for the club. Welcome to Barrow AFC John.

[Middleton Nick]

Welcome to Barrow AFC, JR. Never thought I'd be shouting Roooooooooney,Roooooooooney from the terraces.

[Bingo]

Sounding like he wants to play attacking football which is what everyone likes to see

Are we close to an appointment of an assistant manager

[Graphixman]

When John Rooney has previously played against us he looked a good player, played the ball around well and got stuck in with tackles. A couple of years ago our little group on the terraces all rated him . . good signing , best of luck John at Barrow AFC.

Rooney from Guiseley...maybe the new Skipper even

[liverpoolann]

Remember him playing Holker Street either for Chester or Wrexham didn’t stand out for me and coming from basement club guisely now doesn’t set the pulse racing.Hopefully new manager brings best out of him and the other new lads to give us anticipation of better season.

Peter Atherton assistant manager.
Backroom team now all sorted.
Lynsey Davis left the club

[boyliegladbach]

Good player was Peter Atherton. Reckon we will have a couple of wigan kids on loan.
