Ben Burgess joined during the Summer for £450,000 from Blackburn Rovers, being seen as the second striker to play alongside Luke Beckett. The third of County's trio of Ireland Under-21 internationals, Burgess spent the whole of last season on loan at Brentford, although he would probably rather forget the play-off final in which he scored an own goal.
