DAGGERS opponents on Saturday Rochdale have strengthened their squad with the signing of Hull City midfielder Will Atkinson.

The 21-year-old has made one appearance for the Tigers debut this season, as he played 73 minutes of the 3-1 Carling Cup win over Southend United, before being replaced by Algerian forward Kamel Ghilas.

His debut came back in January 2008 when he came on during the 3-2 FA Cup defeat at Plymouth Argyle.

Atkinson has been out on loan before, with spells at Port Vale and Mansfield Town in the 2007-08 season.
