We take a look at the contenders to be the next manager of Swindon Town with Ian Holloway accepting results must improve otherwise "someone else might be here".
The 63-year-old has endured a difficult few weeks following a previously enthusing start to the new campaign, with his side having now gone eight matches in all competitions without tasting victory.
The Robins, who have lost 13 players to injury already, dropped down to 18th in the League Two table following a 1-1 draw at home to Walsall.
As speculation continues to mount surrounding the future of the ex-Queens Park Rangers boss, we take a look at a handful of names who could come in contention should Holloway's two-year tenure be cut short.
Next Swindon Town Manager Contenders
Stuart Maynard
Stuart Maynard's name has already been speculated within the Swindon faithful as a likely leading contender for the potentially vacant managerial role at the County Ground.
The 45-year-old oversaw York City's National League title-winning campaign in 2025/26, recording a remarkable 108 points, only to be shockingly sacked ahead of their League Two return.
The former Wealdstone and Notts County boss's stock remains exceptionally high however, and surely it is only a matter of time until he is afforded another crack at EFL management.
Luke Williams
How times have changed for former Swindon Town manager Luke Williams.
Just 18 months ago the Londoner was regarded as one of the brightest coaches outside the Premier League when he was shining at Swansea City on the back of his impressive work at the County Ground and Notts County.
However, after being relinquished of his role in South Wales, Williams has since been dismissed from his latest post in Peterborough United, leaving the 45-year-old at a career crossroads.
The prospect of a return to Swindon -- where his managerial career began -- could prove to be the tonic needed, both for himself and a club that remains close to his heart.
Karl Robinson
Surprisingly dismissed by Salford City at the end of the previous season following another failed promotion campaign, Karl Robinson will be linked to a plethora of Football League vacancies over the coming months.
Robinson's tenure at the Peninsula Stadium lasted over two years and the 45-year-old had only signed a new contract in February before he was relieved of his duties after Salford were comprehensively beaten by Notts County in the play-off final.
His win rate with Salford was fairly impressive (44.7%), albeit whilst working with the largest estimated budget in the division.
The former MK Dons and Oxford United boss could galvanise a Swindon squad who are evidently underperforming.
