Wilson left to rue wasteful Robins

Swindon manager Danny Wilson was delighted with his side's defensive display after their 0-0 home draw with Exeter but was disappointed with their inability to make the most of their chances. Striker Charlie Austin, who was sold to Burnley this week, was sorely missed by the Robins as they created some clear chances but failed to put any away with Matt Ritchie coming closest when he hit the bar. "We seemed to have got it together at one end and lost it down the other," said Wilson. "We looked very solid at the back, which has been our Achilles heel, but we had enough chances to win. "Some of the football we played was very good but too often the final ball or the final pass let us down. Their goalkeeper had one of those games where everything went right for him but we have to feel like that is two points dropped. "That is two home games in a row and two 0-0 draws which is slightly disappointing because you have to maximise your home games. We have to look at the last two performances and be pleased with the way we have defended but we are missing someone to put the ball in the net. "Every club needs that type of player but they are not easy to come by especially in this transfer window when the bigger clubs are reluctant to let players go on loan because they cannot recall them."
