Bulls Snap Up Pell

Having turned down the offer of a new contract at Bristol Rovers midfielder Harry Pell has decided to join League 2 rivals Hereford United on a two year deal.

During the early part of the summer break Rovers chairman Nick Higgs confirmed that the club were in talks with the Essex born player after he impressed during the latter stages of the season, making nine appearances after returning from an initial loan period with the Bulls.

During his first stint at Edgar Street Pell played seven games, the first two of which came off of the bench, and made a big impact on manager Jamie Pitman who noted such when speaking of his new signing. "I'm delighted to welcome Harry to the club after an impressive loan spell last season" said Pitman.

Prior to joining the Pirates Pell had been released by Charlton Athletic, the club he was a part of since age seven, and spent time at Hastings United on work experience. Following his release Pell also had trials for Gillingham and Wycombe before deciding to settle himself in Bristol.
