Norman calls on Dons for a big reaction against Swindon

Defender Cameron Norman has called on MK Dons to have a big reaction to their 4-0 defeat to Bradford City on Tuesday night.
Suffering the biggest defeat of Mike Williamson’s tenure, Dons have won four and lost four in their last eight, and remain in sixth in League Two as a result of the humbling at Valley Parade.

“We can't feel sorry for ourselves,” said Norman. “There are positives to take, we have to bounce back, and use this hurt to put it right on Saturday.
“I think we're all really disappointed with the result. We came here full of confidence, and wanted to take three points home with us as we do every time we play away.
“It was a game of moments. I think we started really well, but a ricochet landed to their man on the edge of the box, who put it away well. But I think we had the lion share of the game again, maybe we were a bit wasteful with our possession and chances before the sucker punch just before half-time. And it followed the same suit in the second-half."

"We had a few half-chances, counter opportunities, and on another day they go in and it's a different game.
“There is a lot of desire for Saturday now to get the win, with a point to prove.”
