SLIGO ROVERS have signed Northampton Town full-back Harvey Lintott on loan until the summer.
Lintott, 23, has clocked up 49 league appearances for Gillingham and Northampton but just one of them came this season and he is keen for more regular football.

He will help John Russell fill the void left at right-back by the departure of JR Wilson for Athlone Town.
Lintott said: “I’m looking to play as many games as I can while I’m here and help the club achieve as much as it can.
“I think European football has to be the target and we’ll be doing all we can as a group to achieve this.
“I’m here with an open mind and I’m looking forward to seeing what I can do.
“It’s a huge opportunity for me and I’m fully focused on working hard and bringing everything I can to the role.”
Russell added: “Right full was a priority for us in this window and I feel we’ve brought in a player with real quality in Harvey.
“He’s played in League One and League Two and already has a lot of experience for a player so young.
“We are really impressed with his attributes which will further add to what we have here.
“He is strong, powerful and impressive in one v ones.
“He’s fond of breaking forward too and playing his part in attacks which suits our game here.
“I’m hoping to add more players before the start of the season. We have to be patient and make sure we get the correct people in.
“I want players who are hungry to achieve for this club.”
