Former striker signs for Championship new boy

Last updated : 15 July 2008 By Andy Van Hagen

Doncaster Rovers have announced the signing of former Walsall striker Darren Byfield.

Byfield who famously scored Walsall's winning goal in the 3-2 play-off victory over Reading, finished City's leading scorer last season as they just missed out on promotion to the Premiership.

He has put pen to paper on a two-year deal at the Keepmoat Stadium, which should ensure we go 12 months without hearing the 'Byfield's returning' rumour.
