After recieving clearance for young Alfreton defender Aden Flint to join Town, this evening the club have confirmed the second new signing of the January transfer window to bolster the defence.

Celtic defender Milan Misun joins for a reported six figure undisclosed fee on a contract until June 2013.

A warm welcome to the County Ground to the 20 year old defender, who joins a growing contingent of former Bhoys, after Scott Cuthbert, Simon Ferry, Paul Caddis and JP McGovern having previously played at Parkhead.

After lacking experience at the back in the first half of 2010/2011 following the sale of Gordon Greer, Town sign two promising young defenders, but will these talents fill the void? Or should we expect experienced reinforcements in the next few days?
