The Swans surrendered a three month unbeaten run at Vicarage Road on Tuesday night but have the chance to put that right with back to back home league games against Doncaster and Charlton.<\/p>\n
Sandwiched in between the two is a small matter of a 5th Round FA Cup replay but Britton knows that the importance of bouncing back in the league is very high on the priority list at the moment as they look to continue their play off drive.<\/p>\n
Speaking to the Western Mail, Britton said \u201cWe\u2019ve attracted publicity with the FA Cup run, and that\u2019s obviously a good thing<\/p>\n
\u201cBut there\u2019s no added pressure. We put the pressure on ourselves because we\u2019re the ones who\u2019ve set our own high standards.<\/p>\n
\u201cSince the gaffer has come in, we\u2019ve played this passing game which is very easy on the eye and makes us difficult to beat.<\/p>\n
\u201cAnd we want to carry on playing that way because we feel we\u2019re good enough to do it.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe\u2019re professional footballers, so there\u2019s no way any of us wanted the run to come to an end,\u201d said 26-year-old Britton.<\/p>\n
\u201cThere\u2019s certainly no sense of relief \u2013 we wanted to carry it on until the end of the season.<\/p>\n
\u201cNow the next challenge is to begin another run, starting on Saturday.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe\u2019re disappointed with the performance against Watford<\/p>\n
\u201cAll round, we were pretty sloppy.<\/p>\n
\u201cNormally we play at a high tempo, get the ball down quick and play it, but we didn\u2019t do that.<\/p>\n
\u201cAnd it\u2019s hard to put a finger on why that happened.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe just want to put it down to a bad day at the office.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe need to get back to the standards which set us on this run in the first place \u2013 and push ourselves back up the table.<\/p>\n
\u201cFortunately, the next game comes around very quickly, which is good.<\/p>\n
\u201cSo it\u2019s a chance to pick ourselves up, wipe the slate clean and get started again.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe last time we played Doncaster, they were on a bit of a bad run.<\/p>\n
\u201cBut it is fair to say that they\u2019re in a very different position now.<\/p>\n
\u201cBoth teams know each other well after both coming up from League One last year and it\u2019ll be tough.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe need to wipe the Watford game from our memory \u2013 and if we can start another unbeaten run, that would do us very nicely.<\/p>\n
\u201cIf we could go the final 14 games unbeaten \u2013 though preferably not drawing eight on the bounce again \u2013 I\u2019d have thought we\u2019d be in the play-offs by the end of the season.\u201d<\/p>\n
