PREVIEW: Brighton

Swindon Town make the trip to the south coast tomorrow to take on playoff chasers Brighton & Hove Albion at the Withdean Stadium.

'It gives us a problems. Robbo is a player who can play in a few different positions. I will be looking for players that can play where he can play. We have to make sure we have cover.
