Re: New signing

Adriano Rigoglioso started his career playing for Liverpool where he appeared in the same FA Youth Cup winning side as Michael Owen and Jamie Carragher amongst others. He left Liverpool to join Marine where he applied his trade as a striker before being snapped up by Morecambe in the summer of 2000. After attempts by Doncaster to take him away from Christie Park failed, Rigoglioso's form began to suffer and after a sending off against Shrewsbury Town in the FA Cup fourth qualifying round the club decided that his heart was no longer at Morecambe Football Club and placed him on the transfer list. Doncaster Rovers had a bid of £20,000 accepted with a further £10,000 due to Morecambe when they achieved promotion from the third division and Rigoglioso made the move to Belle Vue. I think he only made seven starts for Doncaster since he signed in 2003. He was on loan at Southport earlier in the season and played against Stanley, he looked overweight and un-fit. He then had a trial at Chester but nothing came of it. If he gets fit he could do a good job for Stanley.
