Sounds interesting. We definitely need decent cover for Bruno, so I hope he turns out to be better than McGivern.

Apparently he's been named in the PFA team of the year the past 2 seasons running and has an excellent penalty on him.
 
Bruno is just about our best full-back I can ever remember but is injury prone and is getting on a bit. So I imagine Kennedy has been singed as a long-term replacement for him.
 
From WIKI;

Tom was voted into the PFA League Two Team of The Year, voted for by his fellow professionals in League Two, for the 2008/09 season at the prestigious PFA awards dinner on Sunday 26 April 2009.[2] He was also voted Defender of the Year in 2008/2009 season following Rochdale's unsuccessful promotion push.

Tom Kennedy started the 2009/2010 season in good form, following the sale of Adam Le Fondre, Kennedy became Rochdale's penalty taker, and helped Rochdale to a 1-0 victory over Aldershot with a last minute Penalty in August. On the 29th August Rochdale played host to Tom's former club Bury in a League Two clash at Spotland. Rochdale were leading 2-0 when Will Buckley was brought down in the box to win a penalty. Tom Kennedy stepped up and added the 3rd goal and then celebrated the goal by cupping his ear and running along the wing in front of all of the Bury fans celebrating. This resulting in the Bury fans jumping onto the pitch and one even chased Kennedy. Kennedy received a yellow card for his actions.

yes but how good is he on sensible soccer?

Feck me, he hasn't joined us yet and he's injured with a barbeque related disaster.:icon_bigg
 
Just think, If we'd had him two months ago we would have won that penalty shoot-out against Cardiff and then won at Wembley.
We would be in the Prem now if NP had got his finger out sooner.

Nevermind Orifice. This signing shows that we are still a big club anyway - we beat off the challenge of Doncaster Rovers, no problem.
 
It's quite impressive that, despite only being 24, he's played regular football since 03/04 and has already made 273 appearances.
