Blackburn agrees Aldershot move
Released Swindon Town defender Chris Blackburn has signed for Blue Square Premier champions Aldershot Town.
Blackburn (25) joined the Robins from Morecambe last summer after earlier spells at Chester City and Northwich Victoria.
But he struggled to make much of an impact and managed only seven appearances at the County Ground.
He spent the final two months of the season making thirteen appearances on loan at Weymouth.
Shots' boss Garry Waddock commented: "Chris is a good footballer and will add healthy competition.
"He's a good passer of the ball but strong and aggressive as well. And he can lead too.
"He's not a ranter and a raver but he's a good organiser."
