Northampton Town boss Aidy Boothroyd has said that he knows what he is getting from Roy O'Donovan.
The Irishman signed for the Cobblers until the end of the season and former Coventry City manager Aidy Boothroyd who had signed O'Donovan for the Sky Blues in 2010 said to the Northampton Chronicle: “Roy is a striker who can also play in both wide areas.
“He has played a number of games in the Premier League and was someone I tracked very closely when I was at Colchester.
“I then took him to Coventry when I went there. He is fit, athletic, mobile and he has an eye for goal.
“He will give us a different kind of threat to the other players we have at the club.
“I have worked with him before and he is a good character.
“I know what we are getting with Roy and I am very pleased we have been able to bring him in.”
