Swindon Town

ANTON Rodgers says that Town will looking to 'right the wrongs' of their defeat to Reading on Tuesday night when they take on Woking on Saturday afternoon (3pm KO).

The midfielder agreed when he was asked whether the Cards will provide a different kind of test to the ones Town have faced so far this pre-season.

“For sure,” he said. “It will be good for Johnny (Goddard) to go back and have his send-off but it’s another game we’ll go and look to win even though it’s a pre-season friendly. We’ll look to right the wrongs from the previous game against Reading.

“It (Reading) was definitely more of a test and I think the boys enjoyed that. It’s a time to get the rustiness out of the way. Obviously it was disappointing but we did put in a good performance. It’s a time to learn from these defeats.”

Reflecting on the clash with the Royals, Rodgers assessed Town's performance at SN1 and highlighted the positives in defeat.

"We had a lot of chances," he said. "We didn’t start too great but I think off the ball we were good but we weren’t too great on the ball which we like to be. I think the attitude was spot on. We grew into the game and created very good chances and that has been the positive throughout the pre-season campaign so far: we have been creating clear-cut chances."
