Swindon Town are set to lose another senior member of staff, with chief commercial officer James Watts to leave the County Ground this summer for a promotion at another EFL club.

The Moonraker understands Watts has been appointed managing director of one of Swindon’s League Two rivals.

He is set to step up into the role at Cheltenham Town over the summer.

The Robins have been haemorrhaging members of the administrative and backroom team over the past year, and this is set to continue with the man who has been responsible for sponsorship and advertising revenue.
