DANNY Adams made his Stockport County debut last Saturday after a last-minute deal secured his move to Edgeley Park.

A hurried deal was agreed between the two clubs last Friday morning following a conversation between Silkmen chairman Rob Bickerton and County chief executive Gary Glendenning and lengthy discussions between Bickerton and Stockport manager Sammy McIlroy earlier in the week.

The terms of the transfer include the payment of a small, undisclosed fee.

Adams impressed during his first game for County, laying on the first goal in his new side's 2-0 victory over title-chasing Bristol City.

"We would have been very happy to keep Danny at the Moss Rose," said club chairman Rob Bickerton.

"The best deal ever offered by this club to a defender was on the table."

"But, once Danny had decided his future lay elsewhere, it was important that we achieve the best possible outcome for Macclesfield Town."

Adams made over 150 appearances for the Silkmen since signing for £30,000 in 1999 from Altrincham Town.

The tough-tackling full-back scored two goals during that time and links up at Edgeley Park with former Silkmen boss Sammy McIlroy and midfielder Ricky Lambert.
