If ever there was an example of how loan signings rarely work out at Burton Albion, then Lee Camp would be the best. A player who since leaving the Brewers has gone on to establish himself as first choice keeper for both Derby County and England U21 was responsible for some shocking performances.

He was quickly drafted into the squad after Matt Duke suffered a broken arm and Dan Robinson was sent off in his first league appearance, leaving the Brewers with no goalkeeper. Camp's first appearance saw him drop a clanger away at Wakefield and Emley in the FA Trophy which resulted in a rather embarrassing 1-0 defeat. He was never on the winning side during his entire spell at Eton Park, and will probably rather forget the seven goals he conceded in the bizarre game against Telford.

Thankfully, 'Dukey' recovered after only 8 games out of the team and Lee was sent back to Pride Park.

He remained on the fringes of the Derby squad but spent a more successful spell on loan at QPR the following season, helping them to promotion to Division One.
