Goodall and Done sign for Dale

This is pretty much old news now, but in case you missed it, Dale have signed both Alan Goodall and Matt Done on short term contracts.

Goodall comes as no stranger to Dale supporters, having enjoyed a previous spell with the club. He'd been on trial at the club since the start of pre-season, and he has signed a deal which will keep him here until the end of December.

Goodall's natural position is at left back, but has played in both left midfield and in the centre of defence for Dale in the past.

Done is a winger who has also been with the club since the start on pre-season on a trial basis. He was with Hereford last season, and his release raised eyebrows amongst some sections of their support.

Obviously, both players will have the opportunity to earn longer contracts during their time at the club.

Both have been added to the squad list on this site, and are available to be chosen in this year's Prediction League.
