Captain Jonathan Douglas has revealed a half-time dressing down at the Banks`s Stadium sparked Swindon`s revival against Walsall at the weekend.

The Robins were fortunate to be only 1-0 behind at the break after Troy Deeny`s eighth-minute opener punished a woeful first-half display.

But the visitors came out fighting after the restart and snatched a point through Billy Paynter`s 80th-minute spot-kick, a point which could have been all three had he also converted his first penalty five minutes earlier.

But Douglas was all too aware of the game`s turning point, telling the Swindon Advertiser: "It was our own doing in the first half and not acceptable, and he (Wilson) told us that.

"I think the performance let us down and it wasn't good enough in the first-half - we all know that. But we came out fighting in the second half. This is a difficult place to come so to come away with a draw isn't too bad.

"Give them credit because they pressed us and stopped us getting the ball down and playing, which is what we like to do. But the gaffer changed it at half-time and came out and proved a point that we can battle when we need to."
