Austin was signed as a left back but is often reluctant to go forward and he usually fills in at central defence.<\/p>\n<p>Austin found League One a bit of a struggle last season; he struggled to handle pacy strikers and referees also seemed to punish him more for his &#8216;hands on&#8217; approach. To be fair to Austin he did play brilliantly in the 3 play off games, he earned a contract due to playing more than 25 games last season.<\/p>\n<p>PROFILE BY MATTHEW PHILLIPS<\/p>\n<p> KEV IN THE NEWS<\/p>\n<p>KEV THROUGH THE AGES&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>KEV&#8217;S 2005\/6 PROFILE <a href=\"http:\/\/swanseacity.rivals.net\/default.asp?sid=971&#038;p=2&#038;stid=8386663\">Here<\/a>KEV&#8217;S 2004\/5 PROFILE <a href=\"http:\/\/swanseacity.rivals.net\/default.asp?sid=971&#038;p=2&#038;stid=8350661\">Here<\/a><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>\n<p>Why not check out the latest <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bbc.co.uk\/wales\/southwest\/sites\/swanseacityfc\/\"> Vetch Verdict<\/a> on the BBC site?<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n<table>\n<tr>\n<td>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>KEVIN AUSTIN Name: Kevin Austin DOB: 12th February 1973 POB: Hackney Contracted until June 2007 2005-06 Stats Apps Goals YC RC 35 0 2 2 Career Stats Club Time Apps Goals Saffron Walden 1992-1993 N\/A N\/A Leyton Orient 1993-1996 126 4 Lincoln 1996-1999 146 2 Barnsley 1999-2001 6 0 Brentford (Loan) 2000 3 0 Cambridge [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":453,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"cybocfi_hide_featured_image":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-13678","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/jackarmy.net\/wp67\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/13678","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/jackarmy.net\/wp67\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/jackarmy.net\/wp67\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jackarmy.net\/wp67\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/453"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jackarmy.net\/wp67\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=13678"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/jackarmy.net\/wp67\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/13678\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/jackarmy.net\/wp67\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=13678"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jackarmy.net\/wp67\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=13678"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jackarmy.net\/wp67\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=13678"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
