  • "The core of our squad wont be sold, regards to England sweden made us look ok in 1st half then they changed their tactics 2nd half which they had too with them staring at ellimination, they pushed kallstrom further up and gerrard and parker couldnt get close first 15-20 mins, they bullied us off the ball! Cole kept getting caught out of position all game his worst game for a long while! luckily Theo come to our rescue with a cracking goal even tho i think it was more in hope than precision judging by the look on his face! Andy Carroll had a great 1st half but looked abit out of sorts second! Wellbeck quiet most of the game but came up trumps (sign of a good striker) great finish tho! i dont know why people slate terry we could do with a few more warriors like him! poor marking for their goals none terrys fault! Cole was marking mellburg for their second goal! were make nxt round but have no chance of beating Spain we cant keep the ball but hodgson knows how to keep things tight and were probably lose by the odd goal!

    And come on swindon sign some players coz as soon as i open my eyes in the morning i have to check the website for any potential new signings then im wide awake and have to read the same repeated stuff over n over again! sure there be more positive news nxt wk! we all know williams is coming but hes only an average lg 1 player but under Di Canio he could blossom! and with regards to favourites leaving i strongly feel that will be alan connell, did well last season but constantly getting taken off! heres hoping for some better news nxt wk!!!! OVER N OUT !!!!!!!!!"

Wray confirms interest in Town players

5:50am Saturday 16th June 2012 in Headlines By Sam Morshead

SWINDON Town have received interest in several members of their current playing staff, interim chairman Jeremy Wray has confirmed.

The Robins have transfer listed a number of first-team professionals this summer as manager Paolo Di Canio looks to build a squad capable of challenging for promotion from League One.

Wray did not name the players in question or the clubs involved, but he reiterated that many of the Swindon squad are currently in the shop window.

He said: “We’ve had interest in a number of players. We’ve made it known that there are other players potentially, who are at the club under contract, that may be available if we get offers in for them or if they think it’s right for them to move on.

“That has inevitably led to enquiries for certainly three or four players so far and we’re just waiting and we’ll see what we do with them but things will happen.

“Common sense says if seven or eight are coming in then we’re not going to have too large a squad so a number will be going out.”

Wray emphasised that he and Di Canio do not want to have numbers amongst the squad just for the sake of it, stressing that everyone on Town’s books come the start of next season will be expected to play a significant role over the course of the campaign.

“I think you’re looking at a core of a team from last season that is in place, but it is a squad game and what you’ve got to make sure is that the people you bring in that are part of that squad are not just numbers that sit there and are numbers on the back of a programme or come on once in a while, when you’re 5-0 up,” he said. “They need to be key people who can play a part, so the strength will be in depth to the point where Paolo’s genuinely got 17 or 18 players he feels are of a standard that could get us to the Championship.”
