Two new signings
« on: November 04, 2016, 01:20:37 PM »

Altrincham FC is pleased to announce two new signings on the eve of their FA Cup tie at Lincoln City. Both players are eligible for selection for that First Round tie at Sincil Bank.
The new players are:

Curtis Obeng (d.o.b. 14 Feb. 1989): Curtis will be best known to Alty fans as a former Wrexham defender. He had very recently joined Macclesfield Town (27 October 2016) from Swansea City.
Curtis was at Wrexham from summer 2009 till January 2012 when he moved up to Swansea City and he spent nearly five years at the Premiership club. He was released in October 2016 but, whilst with the Welsh club, he had loan spells at four Football League clubs, namely Fleetwood Town (3 months), York City (one month), Stevenage (more than 3 months) and Newport County (3 months)

Simon Lenighan (d.o.b. 13 May 1994): Midfielder Simon joins Altrincham from Warrington Town. He started out with Leeds United (2012-15). From Elland Road he had loan spells with FC Halifax Town (February -June 2014) and Alfreton Town (February to April 2015). He then joined Rotherham United on a free transfer.

Thought I'd recognised the name of the second player....remember someone's forum (think it was Harrogate) going apesh*t about them signing a while ago!

Is Curtis Obeng a loan signing or permanent? Presume it's loan as he only signed for Macc last week!

Obeng could be a quality signing if he's anywhere near as good as he was a couple of years ago but I thought that about Emile Sinclair! Never heard of the other lad but there's plenty of quality players in leagues below. Welcome to Alty fellas.

A quick Google on Simon Lenighan produces far from pretty results.

Just googled him. While I'm strongly against what he did everyone deserves a second chance and if he helps get us out of the deep sh*t we're in then happy days!

Agreed everyone does deserve a second chance, let's hope he help us out of our current situation. Do we know what type of midfielder he is? Also from what I remember Obeng is a full back?

Obeng is a 5' 8" right back who was in the same Man City youth team as Daniel Sturbridge,Micah Richards,Ben Mee etc. Anyone know what type of midfielder Lenighan is?

What's wrong with Ched Evans? A decent striker with no criminal convictions.
