SIMON Cox has targeted 25 individual goals this season for Swindon Town. He has also condemned ‘lazy critics’ for proclaiming Town as candidates for relegation. I should think so too.

STARTING school after the summer holidays is a busy time but it can be a worrying time for children with Type 1 diabetes and their parents.
