Manager Darrell Clarke told the club’s official website: “He’s obviously a big lad, but the main thing for me is that he’s played over 150 League One games, and he comes in to add really good competition to the other two goalkeepers.
“We strive for competition for places, and he certainly adds to that, we’ve got three keepers now, we’ll roll with the three and they can all work hard together and make sure they’re ready for the big occasions because we have a lot of big games coming up.
“There’s 22 games left of the season, and they come in such a short space of time, so he just keeps giving us really good competition in that area, I’m delighted to bring him in, and I hope he settles in well.”
