'As The Rusty North Star Shines Above And Drops Its Iron Beam, Crashing Down Upon The Roofs Of Swindon Town'

Monday 20 June 2011

Manic Monday!

Today has been the busiest day of transfer activity so far at The County Ground, with three players leaving the club - two permanently and one on loan.


As expected, Lescinel Jean-Francois has joined Sheffield United and teams up again with former boss Danny Wilson.  Elliott Benyon has been loaned to near-neighbours Wycombe Wanderers for the season, and within the last hour it has been reported by the Swindon Advertiser that John-Paul McGovern has moved to Carlisle United.


I'm a little disappointed that Benyon has been loaned out, as I had hoped he'd be a leading light for us this season.  I guess this means three new strikers will be coming in now along with new defenders, a holding midfielder, winger and hopefully two new goalkeepers.


Not too worried to see Lescinel and McGovern go, good luck to them at their new clubs.


Simone Verdi, Ben Burgess, Rene Howe, Abdul Baggie and David Mooney have been linked with potential moves to Swindon Town.
