Northampton have signed 33-year old Steve Guinan following his departure Hereford United.

Guinan was offered a player/coach role with Hereford but turned the job down and Northampton manager Stuart Gray was delighted to sign him.

"I am sure Steve will score goals for us. He has a lot of experience and that is vital," said Gray.

"Steve is a student of the game who has his coaching qualifications and he is a very intelligent player who can pass on his knowledge to the younger lads.

"A few times last season we fell flat but he can be a leader and he can organise and he has won promotion from this level on more than one occasion so he knows what is required.

"He scored 15 goals last season in League One in a relegated side and he was their player of the year, so he comes with a decent record."
