Rigoglioso signs for Seagulls

COLWYN BAY hve completed the signing of striker Adriano Rigoglioso from Conference club Grays Athletic and he will be in the squad for Saturday's big top-three clash at Llanelian Road against Lancaster City.
The Merseyside-based 30-year-old, who has been training full-time at Chester City recently, played in the same Liverpool FA Youth Cup winning side as Michael Owen and Jamie Garragher and has also had spells at Morecambe, Doncaster Rovers and Forest Green Rovers.
He was impressed with the set-up at Llanelian Road when he played in a pre-season friendly for the Bay, and has agreed to sign this week after failing to gain a regular place at Grays.
"We see him as filling the role played by Rob Hopley before he got injured and hopefully his experience will help us get where we want to be," said manager Neil Young.
"He already knows some of the players here and it is nice that he is not money-motivated and just wants to come here and play football."
More news on this signing in this week's Weekly News.
Disappointing injury news for the Bay, however, is that new defensive signing Danny Grannon injured knee ligaments in last Saturday's defeat at AFC Fylde and is likely to be out of action for two to three weeks.
