SWINDON TOWN’S first local derby of the Sky Bet League Two season against Forest Green Rovers in September will be screened live on Sky Sports.

The game between Dave Flitcroft’s side and former Town boss Mark Cooper and his EFL newcomers at the New Lawn has been brought forward a day to accommodate the cameras.

It will now be played on Friday, September 22 with a 7.45pm kick-off.

Cooper was an interested observer at the pre-season friendly between Salisbury and Swindon Town earlier this week.
