Looks like a good signing.Lets hope he is as good as he looks on YouTube.If so he may be the perfect replacement for Rooney and we may start to climb up the league.If the Tranmere fans are as angry as has been stated it can only be smart move.Come on the Bluebirds onwards and upwards.

Comment from a friend of mine who is a Tranmere fan. On his day was absolutely unplayable when we were in the conference, had some really great games for us in league 2, never made a mark in league 1. Spent a lot of time out injured which was frustrating. 77 appearances in 4 years says it all really. I do feel he hasn’t been utilised enough this season but if he’s not going to be part of the gaffers plans then I’m glad he can go somewhere where he’ll feature. I think it’s a good signing for barrow having come up to league 2, can pass the ball well and can shoot from distance. I wish him well though, he’s quite a character with the fans too (when they’re allowed back of course)

When he came off the subs bench the other week against us an old boy next to me shouted "get your hair cut you big girl" he cast a big grin back :D

Rave reviews from a large percentage of Tranmere fans on twitter. Seem to be very disappointed he's left.

Just been counting the number of clubs Ollie Banks has had and it makes Barrow the 15th club he has had in about 10 years in that was also several loan spells with clubs he eventually signed for, lets hope he stays here for longer than his 18 month contract.

Just watched the interview with Ollie and he comes across very well. Confident talker, not just giving stock answers like some, bit of relaxed humour, but particularly like when he said he's not scared to make mistakes as long as he gets a couple of killer passes away. In recent times we've had several players that have looked terrified to make a mistake. Cracking signing methinks
