![]() Wednesday, 3rd Aug 2011 12:48 by Col Forget Roy, give Robbie a miss, Dale have signed goalkeeper Jake Kean on a season long loan from Blackburn Rovers. The 6'4 shot stopper comes highly recommended and it appears to be something of a coup that we have managed to secure this deal. Dale boss Steve Eyre admitted that Kean has been his number one target to become his number one since his appointment, and that a number of clubs were interested in his services. He had a successful spell with Hartlepool last season, and if comments on their forum are to be believed, it would appear that we've got a good 'un: " "Worth ten points start for you if you get him. You wont be disappointed if he performs like he did for us - a real star in the making" and "Jake Kean was quality and a seemingly a great lad as well, I'm sure he'll do well. I'm amazed he's not been signed up higher than League One to be honest. I thought a Championship club would have snapped him up, in fact Blackburn must have some good keepers" In joining Dale on loan from Blackburn Rovers, he will be stepping in the fine footsteps of Frankie Fielding and Matt Dickens.
