As Yeovil Town manager Gary Johnson looks to build a Glovers' side that can compete in the Championship, he has made what could turn out to be his shrewdst signing to date in the form of Alan Tate.
The defender, who started his career with Manchester United, arrived at Huish Park on loan from Swansea City on the same day the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge welcomed their son, Prince George, into the world.
He made over 250 appearances for the Swans as they rose up through the leagues, including their Championship Play-Off winning side in 2011 when Swansea defeated Reading to win promotion to the Premiership.
During Swansea's days in Leagues One and Two, he would have faced the Glovers on a number of occasions.
Yeovil welcomed his signing by posting a royal-style easel image on their website, but that isn't Tate's only regal link.
When he was a young pro at Old Trafford, he was sent out on loan to Belgian side Royal Antwerp to gain more first team experience and it was there where he tasted first team football for the first time.
