Last term ended in brutal fashion for the Saddlers, who were 12 points clear at the top of the table at Christmas but, following a remarkable implosion, missed out on automatic promotion due to a stoppage-time winner elsewhere on the final day and then lost in the play-off final.

Though the club has stood by Mat Sadler, parts of the fan base have found it harder to forget about last season's disappointment and things could go sour quickly if his side cannot make a fast start.

Swindon finished last term in impressive style under experienced manager Ian Holloway and will hope he can pick up where he left off as the new season gets off and running.

Holloway has been well backed over the summer and an opening weekend victory on the road would show that the Robins mean business in 2025/26.
