Gordon GREER
 SCOTLAND
 'B' international (2 apps)

A central defender initially signed on a month's loan from Doncaster in January 2009, Greer made his debut in a 3-2 win over Walsall at the end of the month - instantly creating an impression with an assured performance at the heart of the Town's back four. Having been sidelined through injury at Doncaster for a significant spell, Greer soon spoke of his relief at playing first team football again, and though he missed the last match of his original temporary deal, he soon extended his spell to the maximum 93 day period.

Perhaps surprisingly, manager Danny Wilson selected Greer as captain soon after his extension was confirmed, Greer responding with more good performances, and he admitted that with his Doncaster contract up at the end of the season, he would be interested in a permanent switch to the County Ground. Greer netted his first goal for the Town in April in a crunch relegation battle at Brighton - a fortnight later, Swindon secured their League One status in the final game of his loan deal, with a 2-1 win over Bristol Rovers. After his release by Doncaster, Greer agreed a two year contract to return, and despite being pursued by clubs from both Scotland and England, he said the decision to move to Swindon was an easy one.
