For Northampton. Let's hope he doesn't find much before the end of the season

It wouldn't matter now anyway, players can't be signed now, even on free transfers, the only instance would be a player coming in on loan if deemed an emergency.

I thought 'unattached' players could be signed at any time?

no there is a 'free transfer' deadline, normally at the same time as the 'loan transfer' deadline
i think in the case of Roy Carroll Barnet may get around it by appointing him player/coach so the deadline wouldn't apply in that case

Evidently he has a network of assistant scouts who like to go 'undercover' when they spy on potential transfer targets.
