Fletcher Holman takes major step on road to recovery, with forward set to return to gentle training on grass next week

Holman underwent surgery on his hamstring after sustaining the injury during the pre-season clash with Bristol City at the County Ground in July.

He is expected to be unavailable until the new year and was not included in Swindon's formally submitted squad list, which was sent to the EFL at the end of the summer transfer window and can be updated again in January.

However, he appears to be making good progress towards a full recovery.
