Northampton Town have signed goalkeeper Ross Fitzsimons on a one-year contract after his departure from Scunthorpe United.

The 31-year-old made 44 appearances for The Iron last season as they won promotion from National League North.

Fitzsimons will be reunited with Northampton boss Kevin Nolan who he played under at Notts County.

"His performances last season were fantastic, he broke all sorts of records and picked up the Goalkeeper of the Year Award at the National Game Awards which says all you need to know about how well he did and he deserves this opportunity," Nolan told the club website., external

Northampton already have goalkeepers Lee Burge and James Dadge registered for next season.
