Who is the latest defender to join the man-mountain ranks at the County Ground?

Miguel Freckleton became the fourth centre-half to join the club this summer when he penned a season-long loan deal. But what’s his background? What will he bring to the Swindon Town XI? And where might there be a weakness?

The Moonraker takes a look at Freckleton’s attributes.

Freckleton was born in Bristol, was raised in the Lockleaze area of the city, and went to South Gloucestershire and Stroud College in Filton. His ties to the south west, then, may have been beneficial in Town securing his signature.
