There are fears Fletcher Holman has sustained a major hamstring injury just two weeks before the start of Swindon Town’s season.

Holman pulled up holding the back of his right leg during the first half of the pre-season friendly against Bristol City at the County Ground on Saturday (July 25).

While he managed to hobble from the field of play, he required extensive treatment and subsequently left the stadium on crutches.
