Swindon Town have confirmed the signing of Tom Nichols on loan until the end of the season.

Nichols joins from Mansfield Town in search of regular gametime after enduring a frustrating year at Field Mill.

The forward has struggled for gametime with the Stags, and fell further down the pecking order following the club's promotion to League One in May.
