Swindon frustrated at lack of signing

The Robins had tried to bring Derby youngster Lee Holmes, who had a spell at the County Grouns last season, back to the club.

But that was a no go, and King has been unable to add to his squad ahead of the new season.

He said: "Lee Holmes was one player I was trying to get, but I spoke to Phil Brown at Derby and the answer was no.

"Eugen Bopp at Nottingham Forest was another one, and the boy at Manchester United I was after has gone to Falkirk, so you get a few knock-backs."
