PRESS CONFERENCE LIVE: Exeter City v Swindon Town

That concludes today's press conference. Thank you for joining us.

Garner on enjoying the end to the season:

"It's been an enjoyable season, it's been challenging and hard work for everyone. You do enjoy it along the way but would probably enjoy it more in hindsight if we are to be successful. We need to enjoy it, that's why we are in the game. Yes, it's our profession but we are all in this game because we love it. Along the way days like Saturday you have to enjoy that because they are great moments. We have to keep enjoying it and we will give absolutely everything until the last kick of the season."

Garner on Plan B with injuries:

"It's a little bit of both [preparing and reacting] if I'm honest. You always have an eye on the squad as whole and how we can play in certain situations if certain players are missing. You are doing that loosely because you have to react to what happens as you don't know what happens. It comes down to hard work, putting a plan in place and then working as hard as possible."

Garner on Cooper and Tomlinson injuries:

"There were no warning signs at all. Joe did it in the warm-up, struck a ball and felt his groin. Brandon was an impact in the game and we have been so unfortunate in recent weeks with injuries that are just impacts in the game. Jordan Lyden, Louie Barry, Brandon Cooper, Jack Payne, they aren't things you can avoid and are just natural occurrences in the game and a bit of bad luck. We have still had minimal soft tissue injuries this season which are the ones we think we can control. We will do everything we can to support them both."

Garner on the prospect of promotion:

"I think if it was pulled off it would be one of the greatest achievements in the league. We can't get too carried away with that, that is the motivation but it is what we do today that matters then on to tomorrow and how do we prepare and perform. All we can do is our best and that gives us the best possible chance to achieve that aim which would be incredible."

Garner on tomorrow night:

"We are still in a good place and have enough to go and win the game and all of us have to dig deep to overcome these setbacks. The core of the group is really strong and we never go anywhere with fear. We try and play with courage and that gives you a fantastic chance to win the game. The work we put in and the detail is what counts. We have had lots of challenges and we have to keep overcoming them."

Garner on 10 away league victories:

"The away form all season has been very good and is really pleasing. Saturday was a really difficult game and I think Bradford will be strong at the end of the season. It is always nice winning in that manner. It's a huge motivating factor to know if we win the game we go into the top 3. It's a huge game tomorrow as they all are and we need to go there and show our quality and character."

Garner on Harry McKirdy absence:

"He would be a huge loss for everyone and he misses two games but fortunately it is a quick turnaround. He has to get ready for that and we have to come together as a group to find how to win these games. We have another run of 4 games in a short space of time and then the season calms down a bit."

Garner on formation:

"I think for Tuesday it will have to be a formation that suits what we have available and balance that with how we think we beat Exeter. We have to find that balance Tuesday night and we know it will be a tough game. They beat us narrowly without us playing well on the day."

Garner on Baudry:

"He came on and did really well and he made a really big impact for us. We are down to 17 available pro's with one of those suspended so it is all hands to the pump and it gives an opportunity for some of our academy players to come into the squad."

Garner on injuries:

"It's not good news with Joe Tomlinson and he will be out for a few weeks. It's not good news for Brandon Cooper either, he had picked up quite a long term injury and it could be season-ending for him. I'm disappointed for both of them but they will come back stronger and both go on to have great careers.

"For Brandon it was a tackle in the first half and he got through the game which was incredible given the injury. We work very hard in conjunction with the parent clubs to rehab them, hopefully by the end of the season but if not then we will do the best by them."

Garner on Jack Payne return:

"He's a great professional and is very dedicated to the game and regularly practices penalties, in that situation, there is no one better. He showed the composure and quality to put the penalty away."

We are in the zoom call now.

That weekend victory ensured Swindon remained inside the League Two playoffs, sitting in 7th position on 55 points. However tomorrow's opponents Exeter trail by just 1 point and 1 position behind Ben Garner's Robins.

Swindon Town bounced back to winning ways at the weekend as Harry McKirdy and Jack Payne combined to earn the Robins a valuable 2-1 away win against Bradford City.

We will be joining the press conference at 8.25am via Zoom.

Good morning and thank you for joining us for this morning's press conference as we speak to Swindon Town Head Coach Ben Garner ahead of tomorrow's trip to Exeter City.
