Wright on Summer recruitment:
'Every season you're looking to bring better players in.
Recruitment is something we would like to look at. We lost a lot of the squad last year and some of the loan players we brought in haven't done as well as we'd hoped and some have done well.
If we stay in League One we would definitely have to improve the squad, there is no doubt about that."
Wright on Swindon's long-term plans:
"You've got to have both a long-term and short-term plan but at the moment we are looking at a short term plan.
You have two different scenarios.
You need to look at player contracts and decide what players are good enough for League One and good enough in League Two.
Until you really know what league you're going to b win it's difficult."
Wright on Sunderland:
"It will definitely feel empty but what I would say to our players is don't play the stadium and Sunderland's history, play the players in front of you.
They are a good team with some good players.
They have a good squad with lots of depth and a lot of quality.
We have to defend well but we have a lot of talent as well."
Wright on Connal Trueman:
"Connal had a good spell at Wimbledon this season and hopefully he can come and do well for us.
It's one game at a time with this keeper situation, I don't think JoJo's injury is too bad so we will look at that again soon.
The goalkeeping situation is a pretty open book.
Archie came in and did well. You need a settled goalkeeper and defence."
Tommy Wright has re-joined us.
Tommy Wright's connection has dropped so we will be having a slight pause.
Wright on Injuries:
"Jordan Lyden has travelled with us.
We hope to have some more players fit and ready for the weekend.
It's the same squad as Northampton but Akin Odimayo isn't involved with a hamstring injury."
Wright on upturn in form:
"It's pieces of magic, bits of luck, and a roll of the dice that are making a difference.
Little things can make a massive difference."
Wright on Northampton win:
"I thought it was a typical bottom of the league game with both team's looking at nervous at times.
Luckily enough we had two pieces of magic which put results in our favour.
I look at the table quite a lot but as you can see only a few points separate about seven teams."
Tommy Wright is joining us instead and is with us now.
Good morning and welcome to today's live press conference blog ahead of Swindon Town's trip to Sunderland AFC. We'll be live from 10am.
