Prutton arrived at the County Ground in the summer from Colchester United

Swindon Town midfielder David Prutton has suggested his side's inconsistency could be down to their attitude.

Danny Wilson's side are sat in 18th place in League One having won seven of their 23 matches so far this season.

"I think it's more of a mentality thing where you get a good game under your belt [but then drop off]," Prutton told BBC Wiltshire.

"If you look at top players they don't just get one good game, they get three, four, five games under their belt."

In their last two league fixtures Swindon have beaten then-third-placed Charlton 4-2 at The Valley but followed that up with a 2-0 defeat at Oldham.

"I think we have played better in games against the slightly higher-up teams," admitted Prutton.

"As the manager has said there's not much in it between us and the ones up there.

"But it's about consistency and the fewer mistakes you make the more games you'll get at a higher level and the higher up the table you'll be."
