Bristol City's teenage striker Marlon Jackson has joined Aldershot Town on a month's loan.

The 18-year-old has failed to make a first-team appearance for the Robins although he did feature in seven games for Hereford United during a loan spell at Edgar Street earlier this term.

Shots boss Kevin Dillon told the club's official website: "We have a small squad at the club and we're looking to bring in two players before Thursday's deadline with Marlon being the first arrival.

"It's important to strengthen the squad. I like to have forwards available and have some fire-power too. You have to have competition for places all the time to ensure that players don't rest on their laurels."
