His impressive performances with the Derbyshire side earned him a move to Premier League club <a href=\"https:\/\/lwosonfootball.ms.lastwordonsports.com\/clubs\/aston-villa-club-news-analysis-fixtures\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Aston Villa<\/a>, but he failed to really break through with the Villains.<\/p>\n<p>The forward, who can play anywhere across the front line, joined Rotherham United at the start of the 2014\/15 season and spent two years there, totalling 44 appearances. He was briefly loaned to Bradford City during his stint with the Millers.<\/p>\n<p>Bowery then had permanent spells with Oxford United and <a href=\"https:\/\/lwosonfootball.ms.lastwordonsports.com\/feeds\/items\/justin-edinburgh-was-an-unsung-hero-as-player-and-manager\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Leyton Orient<\/a>\u00a0before joining Crewe on loan. After Orient&#8217;s relegation from League Two, Bowery exercised the relegation release clause in his contract to join Crewe permanently.<\/p>\n<h2>What They Said<\/h2>\n<p>Speaking to the MK Dons website, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mkdons.com\/news\/2019\/june\/dons-secure-bowery\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Bowery said<\/a>: &#8220;I\u2019m delighted to be here, it\u2019s a big club with big ambitions.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;This is a place where I can see myself fitting in, it\u2019s a really exciting time. I like the way the manager plays and the facilities here are so impressive.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The style of football Tis plays is good to watch and it\u2019ll be good for me to play in his team. He came and showed me the stats and how the team plays, it was really exciting as I\u2019ve never witnessed that before.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It\u2019s a really good stadium, it\u2019s up there with one of the best grounds in the country \u2013 you couldn\u2019t ask for a better place to work.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Main Photo<\/p>\n<p><a id=\"DuXUf75_RMJPs0nOLiFdig\" class=\"gie-single\" style=\"color: #a7a7a7; text-decoration: none; font-weight: normal !important; border: none; display: inline-block;\" href=\"http:\/\/www.gettyimages.co.uk\/detail\/935398302\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Embed from Getty Images<\/a><script>window.gie=window.gie||function(c){(gie.q=gie.q||[]).push(c)};gie(function(){gie.widgets.load({id:'DuXUf75_RMJPs0nOLiFdig',sig:'3OXVCt1VpVfFL5pxkhYXvvU5BKQZ_yMiin9d3oyDv0c=',w:'594px',h:'396px',items:'935398302',caption: true ,tld:'co.uk',is360: false })});<\/script><script src='\/\/embed-cdn.gettyimages.com\/widgets.js' charset='utf-8' async><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>MK Dons have completed the signing of Crewe Alexandra striker Jordan Bowery.
