Milner surprisingly signed for Swindon on a month's loan in September 2003, after Andy King's old friend, Peter Reid, in charge of Leeds, agreed to a deal. Milner is the youngest player ever to score in the Premiership, having scored twice for Leeds during the 2002/2003 campaign, at the age of just sixteen.
