Northampton Town have moved swiftly to fill a defensive void by snapping up Guy Branston on loan from Peterborough.
The transfer-listed centre-back has joined the Cobblers on a one-month loan deal and looks set to replace captain Chris Doig.
Doig has been ruled out for up to four months with knee ligament damage.
"I'm really amazed at how quickly everything has happened," Branston told the club's official website.
"I played for Peterborough reserves here on Tuesday and luckily enough I impressed the gaffer enough for him to bring me in on loan.
"I am here for a month initially and while I'm here I'll just be trying to do the best I can for myself and for Northampton.
"Hopefully some of the younger lads here might benefit from my experience and we can win some football matches."
