Striker Donovan Simmonds signed for Rushden & Diamonds on a short term contract on 6th August 2010. The 21 year old started his career as a youth with Charlton Athletic, moving to Coventry City in 2007. During his time at the Sky Blues Donovan had loan spells at Gillingham and Kilmarnock.
He then had a short spell at Floriana in Malta, returning to sign for Greenock Morton in February 2010.
We spoke to Donovan, upon his arrival, and he said about his style of play; For me as a striker, I like to run in the middle behind the defence and I'm very quick and skilful player and a good finisher.
And do you set yourself any targets for the season? I used to set targets when I was younger but now I just take every game as it comes. Obviously I like to score goals and hopefully I'll score as many as I can whilst I'm here.
He made his Diamonds debut in the 1-1 draw against Fleetwood Town on 14th August 2010 at the start of the Blue Square Bet Premier season. He made a further substitute appearance before leaving the club after his contract was not renewed in September 2010.
