Bristol Rovers have beaten the deadline to sign Newcastle United prospect Elliot Anderson.
The Gas have endured a frustrating deadline day in search of a midfielder but with less than an hour to go until the 11pm deadline they announced they had lured the 19-year-old to the Mem on loan for the rest of the season.
Callum Camps, Liam Sercombe and Jon Nolan have been linked with the Gas on deadline day, but the attentions of Joey Barton and his staff have turned to Anderson to bolster their ranks in the centre of midfield.
