SWINDON Town chief executive Mark Devlin is set for crunch talks with the club on Friday as he looks to come back to work.

Devlin, 44, has been away from the County Ground after suffering injuries in a plane crash in August, but is now fit enough to return.

He said: "As far as I am concerned this meeting is to discuss my position and see if I can come back.

"I don't know what the club want to say to me but I just want to get back to work."

Since being away he has not been in contact with the County Ground board at all, despite the change of manager.

Paul Sturrock replaced Dennis Wise after the former manager's move to Leeds United and Martyn Starnes has been acting chief executive in his place.

Devlin, who re-joined the club last season, said: "I haven't been in contact with them since the accident because they told me not to. I only spoke to them last week to confirm I was ready to return. I am thinking about nothing else after Friday because it would be pointless.

"There has been a lot going on while I have been away which has certainly made interesting reading.

"It has been frustrating being away and recovering but people have been reminding me I am lucky to survive a plane crash at all."
