Swindon, England — Forget the Holloway drama for a second, Robins fans. Because what’s happening behind the scenes at County Ground right now might just be the best news Swindon Town have had in years.
Swindon finished the 2025/26 season 9th in League Two with 75 points, 22 wins, and just 4 points off the playoffs. After flirting with relegation 18 games into the season, that turnaround is nothing short of a miracle. And the club isn’t done yet.
*The bombshell*: Swindon just announced their first signing of the summer — right-back Mitch Clark from Port Vale, joining on a free transfer July 1, 2026. But here’s what has fans buzzing: Clark is only the start.
With 18 players set to leave on June 30 including fan favorites like captain Ollie Clarke, Billy Bodin, and Junior Hoilett, the County Ground is about to get a full rebuild. Club insiders say this is “the last throw of the dice” by owners Clem Morfuni, Hollie Kiely, and Bethany Parlodorio. Translation? Money’s being freed up, and the brief is clear: technically good players who will “give it absolutely everything” when it gets tough.
