Swindon Town have announced that Andy Monkhouse and Charlie Comyn-Platt have gone out on loan as the club hopes to bring new players in prior to the loan deadline.

Monkhouse was brought to Swindon by former manager Dennis Wise and was a first team regular prior to suffering a hamstring injury. Monkhouse will be travelling back up north after arriving from Rotherham United in the summer to Hartlepool United on a month`s loan.

Comyn-Platt arrived at Swindon under ex-boss Andy King prior to the 2005/06 season from Bolton Wanderers. Comyn-Platt has been out since injuring his shoulder and has seen limited action since overcoming the injury. Comyn-Platt will link up with the man who brought him to Swindon, Andy King at conference side Grays Athletic.

Manager Paul Sturrock has said both moves are one month loans to the 2 respective clubs. Sturrock also said he is close to signing, believed to be a midfielder. Sturrock has also said he is looking for a striker but has yet to be successful.

The deadline for teams to sign loan players is at 5pm this evening.

    ok cool
    thought it was midnight

  • juz stfc says:

    tho considering the lack of fit midfielders we have here seems odd to loan out one??? even charlie had a decent stint in midfield anchorman role.

  • lucyg says:

    well i dont follow your club but surely if they are going out on loan then they are not making the team for whatever reason therefore it would make sense to let them go

  • juz stfc says:

    exactly thats why im sitting here and not a manager lol!!!! darlington right?? how they doing today as in loans???

  • lucyg says:

    lol darlington yeah. we’ve signed a defender from boston and a midfielder from donny with one lad going to boston the other way. news of another defender coming in from boro too but we’ll see

    I think the writing is on the wall for Andy, he always seemed injured to me.

  • red_gilly says:

    yey, but we knew the gamble when he was bought in as being injury prone, can’t afford to be carrying players. When fit he is good but not injury free for long.
