His first, and only, appearance on the pitch came almost a year later when he came on as an 86th-minute substitute for player-caretaker manager Stuart Campbell in a 1–0 defeat to Southampton at St Mary's on 16 April 2011. A year later, having not made any further impact on the team, he was released.

| - Lamar Powell is a forward, who joined the Rovers first team squad for the first time at the end of April 2010 and was included on the bench for The Pirates' home game against Norwich City on 1 May 2010, although he didn't make it onto the pitch. His first, and only, appearance on the pitch came almost a year later when he came on as an 86th-minute substitute for player-caretaker manager Stuart Campbell in a 1–0 defeat to Southampton at St Mary's on 16 April 2011. A year later, having not made any further impact on the team, he was released. He graduated through the Rovers youth system, and signed a two-year scholarship deal with the club in October 2009, a month after his sixteenth birthday. He was moved up to the under-18 squad at this time, despite still being eligible to play for the under-16s, for whom he scored 52 goals during the 2008–09 season. He signed his first professional contract on 19 November 2010, a one-and-a-half year deal that ran up until the end of the 2011–12 season. New manager Mark McGhee opted not to retain his services however and he was released on expiry of his contract. Orginally from the Stoke Bishop area of Bristol, Powell started out playing for Shire Colts under-8s, and attended Cotham School, before going on to Filton College.
