Town manager Joe Royle says he and his coaching staff will spend extra time working on the defence this week in training. Royle was less than impressed that his side let in four goals at Bramall Lane on Saturday.

The Town boss said: "We've got to work on our defending. It's not just the back men - everyone will be involved. Defending starts from the front.

"Three of the goals were bad ones to concede. Only one of the four can be excused."

Royle felt his side should have won through to the fifth round of the FA Cup where they would have met Walsall at home.
