If he can find our strikers and take free kicks like he used to then great signing!

How many players do we need in midfield, That`s White not getting game time.

We'll get to see Tuesday night if it's money well spent. We need a spark and this might just be it. The journey to Northampton might be so bad after all.

Backward step. Grant Holt type move. We don't need lots of new players, just a settled team
Just say no to VAR :sentoff:

An interesting piece from a Stockport perspective on Rooney coming back to Barrow

Think his main role will be to kidnap Matty Platts loved ones and force Platt to play like a man for them to be released. Recent performances have been gutless. One thing Rooney is not is gutless.

Well somethings obviously changed since he wanted to leave, whether that’s his heads back on or his home situation has changed?? Either way I’m sure he would have been wanted by many National League clubs and some other L2 clubs if his availability had been made common knowledge which it clearly wasn’t, bearing in mind he came in for Stockport yesterday. If he be half the player he was 2 seasons ago then his signing is a massive well done to the board and Cooper. He is after all the type of player we’ve needed all season and if he’d been signed in the summer everyone would have been bouncing with excitement. Let’s wait and see what happens. Welcome back John.

Really not so sure about this one, at all. 30 month deal too. I'll give him my backing to have the same impact as he did the first time around.
