Mings said: "It was an excellent work-out for the players.
"Barring the scoreline it's good to see Swindon field a strong side against
us.
"In the past they have managed to send out youth teams but in the two legs
they played most of the first team.
"They are obviously pleased to do it against us.
"They were impressed with us in the first leg and they gave my young players
who have got aspirations of playing at a higher level, a little test in
terms of what they need to achieve."
