Swindon Town boss Ian Holloway has sent a video to lifelong Robins fan Sam Baggott following his shoulder surgery.
The former Crystal Palace boss sent a video to the supporter and wished him well.
He said “I’m missing you at the ground at the minute.
"Get back and see these lads play for you son, they're buzzing"

The Swindon Advertiser spoke to ‘Baggy’ on and how he’s recovering and the latest on his personal situation.
“I had shoulder surgery in September as I keep dislocating my shoulder.
“About a week after the shoulder surgery I was suffering with some strange pains on my good side that got so intense I had to call an ambulance.
“I had multiple scans, blood tests and x-rays. I finally got diagnosed with a pulmonary embolism which is a blood clot that then travels into my main artery in my lung, which was stopping me from breathing.
“The doctors have put this down to the surgery but the surgeon has never seen this before.
“I’ve now got to take blood thinners for 3 months and then a review will take place.”
It will be a long wait for Sam until he can return to the Nigel Eady County Ground, but he's excited to return.
