Just spoke to a Swindon fan I know and he claims that they are waiting on signing Stephens from Southampton who won't leave until they've signed some more defenders. So this is likely a stop gap for that.

I've always rated Josh Lelan who can play CB or RB. I remember the youth FA Cup game we won against either Man City or Chelsea. Lelan and Jamie Hanson were outstanding in the heart of our defence.

Agree though, as Farrend Rawson has gone to Austria Lelan must be dropping down the pecking order. If he plays for Swindon, a League One loan would be great experience for him.
