1:58PM

Full write-up to follow.


1:58PM

That concludes today's press conference.

1:58PM

Wright on Donohue:


He left for personal reasons and family is more important than anything. He left for personal reasons and he doesn't have a contract anymore.


1:56PM

Wright on young players:


We are trying to bring young players through but players have to accept criticism in modern day football. If young players are getting harshly treated online due to their performances then they shouldn't go on social media. It goes with the job.

1:54PM

Wright on goals:


With strikers coming back from injury we are expecting more goals. We have still scored enough goals to get points and hopefully they can now push on.

1:49PM

Wright on League position:


In some ways it is a reflection of our performances due to the silly goals we have given away, but on the other hand we have played some really good attacking football at times. We're just above relegation but have done a lot of attacking football.

1:48PM

Wright on fans being back:


It's going to be a massive different and we need to have the fans back. Whether they are back cheering or moaning it has an effect on players. Without fans there haven't been many comebacks, and with fans you get that reaction and that provokes a reaction from players. It's soulless without fans.

1:46PM

Wright on Fleetwood:


If you watch Fleetwood they can adapt and play different styles. Joey Barton has done well there and they develop a system based on their opponent. We created enough against Gillingham though and need to take our chances. You have to adapt to everyone.

1:45PM

Wright on rest period:


We had Tuesday off but it's not been a light week. This has been a hard-working week and the players have been working hard. We've never had a settled team and had to change our system lots but we are working on things.

1:44PM

Wright on three at the back:


It is something we will look to continue with. We have the flexibility but tend to look at the opposition more.

1:43PM

Wright on players returning:


We've got players coming back and that's great.


The more competition for positions the better it is for us.

1:42PM

Wright on Broadbent:


He saw a specialist and will be back in training next week.

1:40PM

Tommy Wright has joined us instead with John Sheridan off house hunting.
