Firstly, you havn't 'signed him from Hartlepool' as he was released  

However..... I'm not going to lie i liked him and didn't think he should of been released! It seems the manager wants experience at the back as we also released Scott Harrison (CB). Like the quote from the Hpool message board said, hes best at Left Side CB. Has a great left foot to fill in at LB/LWB and will head a fridge.

I'm more concerned about his ability to head a ball.

Can't see it as more than a squad signing. He's back up material but at least we now do have defensive back up and he has played at this level and he's young enough to be coached into a decent player.

For every genius you do need a few labourers. Not quite sure we've signed the genius yet though.

We seem sorted defensively now, maybe a right back should Mills get injured? Unless one of the CB can cover.

Looking promising now!  Roll on pre season!

Mike White suggests we may be signing another full back today which would mean the defence is all set.

Young player with some experience at league level. Potentially a good signing, hope he has pace to add to his heading ability. A welcome addition to the squad, one thing the manager knows is defenders and if he rates him in this area that's fine by me. Welcome aboard Dan.

Mike White just tweeted: "Hearing that forward Ashley Chambers could be next through the door at Grimsby Town. Had a loan spell with the Mariners in 2010. #gtfc"

Not going to lie, would be disappointed with that considering what we saw of him whilst here and his record since then.

Got a feeling that Dan Jones may be more than a back up member of the squad. Virtually every comment about him elsewhere includes the word quick..

Comment from Blue Stripes on the other thread
Dan Jones is a excellent player who will not let you down.He's just not very quick not a left back deffo better at centre half,
