Swindon Town's Lewis Ward feels his team can win promotion next season.

What happened last season?

The team had a disappointing season, missing out on the playoffs. They finished 9th in League Two, with 75 points from 46 games, scoring 70 goals and conceding 59.

Why it matters for Swindon Town

Ward believes the continuity of the team will be important in seeing them improve and fight for promotion once again. He said the team has brought in a couple of new players and let a few go, but he hopes they will get some more signings to strengthen the squad.

What comes next?

With pre-season getting underway, 18 members of last year's squad will be coming back, whilst Mitch Clark and Stephan Negru have joined the group. Ward thinks that having been through the experiences of last season will help the team, especially the younger players.

Ward also said that not being able to deal with the pressure of the situation was a factor last season, and so having been through those things would help. He feels that the team should use last season as motivation and learn from their experiences.

As of the end of the 2025-2026 season, Swindon Town's last result was a 1-2 loss to Chesterfield on 2026-05-02. They were 12 points behind leaders Bromley and had a recent form of 0W-1D-4L. Ward hopes that the team can keep the core together and add some new signings to strengthen the squad.
