so shrews after a quiet start are now in a promo place and looking to cement their top 3 place. 5 wins on the trot and a good result against vale will set town up for a memorable win at the emiroids stadium. lol tongue in cheek. go on shrews you can do it.

gas 0 shrews 1 wrighty 5211

come on you shrews breath on em and floreat salopia

 

The Gas 2-1 Shrews with harrald getting both of em (I hope), I think there will be around 6,000 there, shrews to bring quite a few of course

 

Rovers 2 - Shrews 2. (collins, Wroe) Attendence 5693. Cannot make this game due to work but will be at Vale, Arsenal and Southend. Will be interesting to see (or hear) how Matty Harold fares against Sharpes and ScS.

 

on reflection matty was a good signing for the gas, the wobblers got rid and so did we

 

This is a must win game for Brizzle. Anything less and they will be left trailing well in Shrewsbury's wake.

Brizzle 0 Shrewsbury 4 (Morgan 2, Bradshaw, Wright). Sent off-Harrold for persistent fouling (It usually catches up with him once a season)

 

Love it Kasule!! I read the first line and thought you were going for a defeat!!

 

Will Harrold benefit from playing with Town or will Town benefit from knowing Harrolds weaknesses?

 

well he is no donkey with the gas, and shrews should be wary of his play. we fear no one but respect as the saying goes

 

We are likely to come unstuck against the seasons early pace-setters & champions elect, Bristol Rovers. Not only are they walking this league, they're doing it in style & MOON-walking it!

My head tells me we'll get done 4 - 1 with Harrold getting a hat trick. Honestly, it really does... (ahem).

But my heart says otherwise, an easy Town win by at least 2 goals. Marvellous getting on the scoresheet again.

 

1-1, Morgan scoring and an attendance of 5,924

 

kds, are not the gas already trailing in our wake? to quote a rowing term i think the gas have caught a crab, but i still think wrighty's goal will seperate the teams on tuesday. fs,aab,coys, bots!

 

Rovers fans are going to give Carl regan stick to try to put him off!!!! ............He's been injured for 3 weeks and will not be playing......please keep up!!

 

No one is worried about Regan, Wright on the other hand seems to have done well for you. He couldnt do it at the mem before because our fans were on his back from day one. He can expect more of the same and will crumble. Still think the Shrews will get a point though as we are going though a terrible patch of form.

 

Wrighty can be poor at times then just as we are about to moan he does something brilliant but on the whole has been a really good signing for us. Havent seen enough of Regan yet to comment due to his injury.

 

Chris - which one of Shrewsbury's ex-goalkeepers will your team start with?

 

Now that is a good question!!

 

Bevan, how many ex gas will start for the shrews? All of them?

 

Regan has a poorly paw so he is going to sit this one out. Jacobson is one you let slip the net, and Wrighty? Well 12 goals from out wide last season and building his tally this season shows what he can do.

 

banter aside i reckon the shrews will p*ss all over the gas 1-0 wrighty

 

Piss all over the gas..... 1-0 Wrighty wont get a touch without getting boo's from the home fans, and it will get to him and he will bottle, which makes him very much a Shrew
