WILSON: GET BACK ON TRACK

Posted on: Fri 30 Oct 2009

Swindon Town host Woking in the FA Cup first round on Saturday 7th November with matchday hospitality available from just £20 per person, including a match ticket and food! Call 0844 880 1094 for details or to make a booking.

Danny Wilson believes his side have the perfect opportunity to get their season back on track against struggling Tranmere Rovers tomorrow-but is guarding against any potential Town complacency.

He said: "We know the crux of their team and how they've been playing in recent weeks.

"They've lost a lot of players from last season and from what I understand they've had some budget cuts made too so there are a lot of young lads in the team, and I think that's one of the problems they've had.

"Saying that, we're not underestimating them at all, because they've got some good players and they're normally very strong at home.

"They're determined to get themselves out of the bottom area so it'll be a tricky game, but we feel we've got enough in our locker to come away with three points.

Town travel to Prenton Park without a clean sheet in nine games, but Wilson is more concerned about his side creating more chances than they have done in recent outings.

He said: "We defended really well at Carrow Road throughout the game, and we passed the ball brilliantly at times, but for all the possession we had we didn't turn it into goals.

"Although we haven't had a clean sheet for a while, we haven't conceded many either. 

"To put it into perspective, if we had scored in some of those games people wouldn't be so worried about it, and that's the area we're more concerned with at the moment.

Recent trips to the Wirral have provided some stiff tests for Town, but the manager is hoping that his visiting side can capitalise on the hosts' indifferent home form so far this term.

"Prenton Park has always been a tough place to go and they've had very successful home form over the last three or four years," he said.

"But they've been a bit nervy at home this season, and hopefully we can go there on Saturday and make them a bit more nervy."
