After making four appearance and scoring once, Jeffers had his loan with Cheltenham Town extended until 1 January.[9] Later in his Cheltenham Town career, Jeffers had mostly make appearance by coming on as a substitute in the second half and by January, Jeffers loan spell with the club extended.[10] A few weeks later, Jeffers returned to the Coventry City on 31 January 2011.[11]
