Petkoff wants Swindon silverware

Swindon Wildcats

New Swindon signing Joel Petkoff is determined to finally help bring some silverware to the club this season.

The Canadian has re-signed for the Wildcats having left his German club, EC Peiting, after just a few weeks.

Petkoff scored 105 goals in two seasons at the Link Centre and told BBC Radio Swindon he now wants to win something.

"I would definitely change in scoring a load of goals for maybe actually winning something this year in Swindon," he said.

"They've got the set up there, they were just kind of missing a couple of pieces to the puzzle and hopefully I'll come in and do the job I've been doing the last couple of years."

Once he made the decision to leave EC Peiting, Petkoff said returning to the Wildcats was an easy decision to make.

"I had a couple of offers from Germany a couple more in England and a couple at home (in Canada) but I just thought I really like it in Swindon, I'm comfortable there."
