A former City star will get an opportunity to perform at Sincil bank next season. 'Super' Kevin Austin has become the second defender to sign for Chesterfield this summer after a free transfer from Swansea. Swansea have fought their way to promotion from League One, and Austin legs weren't deemed suitable for the step up. Austin was a superb left sided defender who excelled in the promotion year of 1997/98, only to make a big move to Barnsley. However he broke his leg playing a cup game for Barnsley, ironically against City, and never really captured the promise he'd shown.
