MIDFIELDER Andy Haworth has joined League Two side Rochdale on loan.

The 21-year-old winger has signed a six month deal until the end of June.

Haworth, who was recently on a month-long loan deal with non-league Gateshead, has found his first team opportunities limited at Ewood, with just one league start in the Carling Cup and an FA Cup substitutes appearance.

He has been signed in time for Rochdale’s league match away at Cheltenham on Saturday.
