Mick Harford told the club's official site: "I am sure Deon will be a major asset to this club. He is a good target man who can also hold the ball up well and I am absolutely sure he will do a good job for us."

Burton's signing will ease the fears of Millers fans who were beginning to worry about the size of the squad following Michael Proctor's departure to Hartlepool earlier on today.
