Blues boss Lee Clark has bolstered his striking ranks by signing Brentford's top scorer Clayton Donaldson
The 30-year-old forward has joined the club on a two-year contract, commencing on 1 July, and becomes the ninth recruit of the summer.

Hot shot Donaldson played a key role by bagging 18 goals as the Bees clinched promotion out of Sky Bet League One last season as runners-up to Wolverhampton Wanderers.

The Bradford-born player began his professional career with Hull City, before moving on to York City, Hibernian, Crewe Alexandra and then Brentford in 2011.

Since switching to the Bees, he has a better than one in three goal average, having found the back of the net 53 times in 155 appearances.

Donaldson's arrival follows hot on the heels of winger David Cotterill who put pen-to-paper on a two-year deal on Tuesday.

Though I'm gutted Coco didn't have the gumption to resign,and accepting that we are stuck with him. I'm not complaining about the signings, as they do seem quite decent. Would prefer good honest players,rather than overpaid prima any day.
This lad could be good.

Yessssssssss Only just got in, this the one I have been waiting for FANTASTIC. This guy can score goals but more importantly his threat on the oppositions goal means he will have to be closely watched/marked so that alone will help the likes of our hard working Novak get in on the act as well. Bombastic I am all for anyone who has the bottle to hold there hand up and at least recognise LC may be doing or trying to do a half decent job, and that is all I have ever asked for him to be given a fair crack. Well said.

Top half of the table for me.

Welcome to BCFC Clayton. Give us 100% and you'll be OK.

Our 9th signing of the summer will he be wearing the no 9 shirt?

Looking at the Brentford official website. They thought he was going to re-sign and are obviously gutted that he hasn't. That says it all for me!

Jakeee, It will be interesting to see how many s/t are sold in the next few days, almost everyone I speak to are saying how pleased they are and will be renewing. Wouldn`t it be great for the fans to start the new season with the type of atmosphere we had at Bolton.

If we are to have any chance of staying up we needed a goal poacher so a good signing IMO.

A friend of mine on Twitter is a Brentford fan and had this to say:

"He is superb. He works like mad, he scored most of those goals for us playing out of position".

"He will make insane misses occasionally and can panic a touch on 1-on-1s but he's better than he was with that"

"Ideally you want to maximise him running without the ball onto the ball, we didn't do that enough but it is a thing of beauty"

"L1 defenders couldn't deal wih it. Champ ones will better of course but he is really very quick without the ball."

"Oh and he talks like Bett Lynch which is nice"

"Gutted to see him go, but we seem to be moving to a style of play that doesn't suit him so well so it probably makes sense"

"But don't blame me when he's s*** ;)

He did take a little while to settle in actually"
