Scored twice in the 2007 League Two Playoff final to help Bristol Rovers beat Shrewsbury, Walker’s aiming to repay his new employers
Joined the Shrews on a season-long loan for the 2008/09 campaign after falling out of favour at Bristol Rovers.
Walker will forever be remembered by the Gasheads for his brace in Rovers’ 2007 League Two play-off final victory over Shrewsbury.
The powerful Birmingham-born forward did score for Aston Villa against Arsenal during the early part of his career, but led a somewhat nomadic existence for the next four seasons, playing for Cambridge United, Blackpool, Wycombe, Northampton and Oxford before joining Bristol Rovers in 2004.
A natural goalscorer, Walker formed a prolific partnership with Junior Agogo for the Pirates before the Ghanaian was offloaded to Nottingham Forest.
