"We had a terrible blow when I was told at five o'clock that my captain couldn't play after we prepared with him in the team,"
"I've rung the League Managers Association to complain - I think it's unprofessional. They want to fine me? Good! They want to ban me? Good! Do it. Have a look at yourselves every single one of you. It's absolutely disgusting. And whether I get another game or not I don't really care any more."
"It's a siege mentality in my head now, absolutely totally and utterly. And if Luton go through, good luck to you. We beat you fair and square."
Swindon were fined £1,000 for fielding Ollie Clarke in an EFL Trophy tie at Luton after believing a seven-game ban did not apply to that competition. Clarke was later issued a one-match suspension and ruled ineligible for the League Two meeting with Barrow. The club has complained to the League Managers Association and described the handling of the situation as unprofessional, expressing willingness to accept further penalties. Swindon also used Aaron Drinan as a substitute despite his name not appearing on the teamsheet, creating a separate potential breach that could lead to additional EFL sanctions, including expulsion from the EFL Trophy.
