Trenkel added "It goes without saying how delighted I am to sign Danny. His pedigree, ability and goalscoring talent is untouchable. Being able to sign him is a big feather in my cap as a young manager and it shows that we are a club doing the right things and moving in the right direction. I think a player with Danny's calibre could be the difference in terms of our promotion prospects and is a player that the younger lads will learn a great deal off of".

Heale last played for Rovers on the 22nd September 2004, coming off the bench in a 2-0 defeat to Ilford in a Thameside Trophy first round. Danny played 17 games for Rovers, scoring 5 goals between 1999 & 2004.
