Darryl joined Rovers in the summer of 2008, from Swansea, in a three year deal, for a six figure fee.

He was a youth team player with Glasgow Rangers and made three appearances for the Scottish giants, against Dundee United, in the Scottish Premier League, Forfar in the Scottish League Cup, and Panathinaikos in the European Cup.

He spent time on loan with Brechin City before a permanent move to Falkirk in June 2004 and in his first season with them he finished top scorer in the Scottish First Division as his side gained promotion to the Premier League.

After a good start to the 2005/06 season, he signed for Hull City in January 2006 and, in a gesture to Falkirk, he volunteered to forego his contractual share of the transfer fee as a contribution to assist the club's youth and community development schemes.

First team opportunities were limited at Hull, and he joined Hartlepool United, on loan, in November 2006 and then spent the final two months of the 2006/07 campaign on loan at Swansea.

In July 2007 he made the move to the Liberty Stadium a permanent one, signing a three year deal. Although he appeared in 20 league games for the Swans, as they clinched the League One Title, eight of those were from the bench and he signed for Rovers with the aim of playing regular first team football.

A proven goalscorer with a great deal of pace, there's no doubt he will be looking to recapture the form that has seen him win two Scottish 'B' caps and eight U-21 caps.

Darryl made his debut for the club on the opening day of the 2008/09 season, against Carlisle, and scored his first goal in the 6-1 win against Hereford on 23rd August.

He didn't really find his true form until the second half of the campaign, when he began to show just why Paul Trollope had wanted him at the club.

He ended the season with 13 league goals to his name, though he did find goals hard to come by last season, scoring three in 30 league appearances though half of those games were from the bench.

Darryl was loaned to Carlisle United in February 2010 but was recalled in April and was in the squad for the remaining fixtures of the season.
