Wade Elliott took over as Cheltenham boss on 27 June when predecessor Michael Duff left for Barnsley

New Cheltenham Town boss Wade Elliott has made four signings in one day at the League One club.

Reading keeper Luke Southwood has joined on a season-long loan.

The Robins have also signed three defenders, West Bromwich Albion's Caleb Taylor and Bristol City's James Taylor on loan, plus free agent full-back Ryan Jackson on a one-year deal.

Elliott has now made nine signings in time for the season opener with Peterborough United on 30 July.

Centre-back Caleb Taylor, 19, played three times in all competitions for the Baggies last season.

Right-back James Taylor, 20, has been part of the Robins' Under-23 side but has yet to play a first-team game.

Jackson, 31, who was released by Gillingham has played more than 400 games.

Southwood, 24, who has made 25 Championship appearances for Reading, was part of England's Under-20 World Cup winning squad in South Korea in 2017.
