I know it's not the most exciting signing, but an established League One striker joins on loan until the end of the season - Billy Bodin. He's available for Huddersfield at the weekend.

4 in 10 for Burton, strange he hasn't played more.

[6ft Kerplunk]

Lets just hope he can run faster than his dad did when he played for us.

Record looks pretty solid, tbf, might see if any highlights on YT

Let’s hope he’s better than the last billy that signed for us

[SCIAG]

Let's hope he does better for us than Shaun Goater.

We really are a laughing stock club. Surely we could have done better, rather have had Yakou Meite back!

At least the EFL let us replace Smith I guess.

Whitehurst?

Whitehurst?

Lol… Sharp

[Mr Optimist]

I think he provides much needed experience at third division level and personally I’m willing to give him every chance and full support while he is wearing our shirt, why wouldn’t you?

We really are a laughing stock club.

Some might even say tinpot.

I've actually got a good feeling about this.

I must say, looking at his Rovers goals from a year ago and his Burton goals this season, looks very similar in style to Smith. Lots of running, he odd speculative banger and solid number of fox in the box goals.

Seeing our facilities will be a huge boost to him to make an impact

[Winston Biscuit]

sounds like a regen name

[Mr Angry]

My colleague is a Bristol Rovers fan; rates BB highly BUT said he was a bit injury prone, saying tha when he is fit, he is excellent.

[Snowflake Royal]

I'd like to give him a chance, but booing a Bodin is just a reflex action at this point.

[Stranded]

4 goals in 600 mins on the pitch this season in a struggling team - similar style of player to Smith - experience of being in a play-off push and getting promoted out of this division.

If he stays fit, then Carey may well have pulled off another good deal.

He is Sam Smith.
