Jacobson: I've joined bigger club

The 22-year-old defender has spent the last two years with the Pirates but injury restricted him to 22 games during a frustrating 2008/09 campaign. He admitted the time was right for a new challenge as his contract had expired. Jacobson told the Oldham Chronicle: "I think I have joined a bigger and better club than Bristol Rovers and I am delighted to have the opportunity to play here. "I am looking for us to be up near the top challenging for promotion. I cannot wait to get started."
