Dan Butler
Full Back · Swindon Town · season-by-season, by competition, and every match.
Past his 2023/24 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
The record covers 7 seasons (2020/21–2025/26) across 3 clubs — 186 appearances with 13 goal contributions from defence.
His best campaign on record is 2023/24 at Stevenage — Season rating 51, 1 goal and 2 assists in 43 games. 2023/24 was the leap — Season rating up 35 points at Stevenage. Form has slipped 40 Season points across his last 3 full seasons. The gap to his peak is 40 Season points.
A streaky profile — form has swung hard between campaigns (spread of ±17 points), so the peak and the trough are far apart. Made the jump to a higher division in 2021/22 (Championship) and kept playing — 22 games that season.
