It does look grim for Bury, from the outside it looks they'd be better advised to accept their relegation and start jettisoning the high earners. The statement issued seems to suggest they think otherwise, I fear for them.

I see my club as a shambles from top to bottom at the moment. How do you lot see us?

What a remarkable 12 months this has been for Shrewsbury.
81 points from 46 league games in the calendar year. Achieved with players from the 'non-leagues', or players not deemed good enough at other league teams. I'll be surprised if Paul Hurst is with us this time next year.

Originally posted by duncanmckenziedoughnuts View PostI was totally impressed at the great support you lads and lasses showed at Ewood on Saturday. I dearly hope it is both of us who go up automatically. To be where you, rightfully, are -above us-after the last season is testament to a good strong side and a terrific manager. I'd not begrudge you winning the division. Good luck from Lancashire and hope you can keep the Hurster.
As much as Wigan come across as a bunch of self-entitled arseholes, they are a very good side at this level. So are you, but from what I've seen, you're prepared to roll your sleeves up and battle.
As for us. All our physical and mental attributes will only get us so far, we lack genuine quality in the final third. We're in an excellent position for a play-off spot, but personally I'm not too bothered if we fall out of the top 6 as its just a joy to watch a team that actually appears to give a shit. And play a bit (but mix it up when we need to).

Shrewsbury did the double over Portsmouth today and have gone back up to second in the table. I can't really believe we are going to go into February with Town in an automatic promotion spot. They have had a punishing January including the FA Cup replay and another Checkatrade win.
Further to the last couple of thread posts, Dean Henderson has been banned for three games for chucking a bottle back at the Blackburn supporters who pelted his goal with stuff during the defeat there. No punishment for Rovers, which is feeding the mentality among some Town fans that there is an increasingly blatant bias towards the "big" clubs.

Darren Ferguson's long-standing dilemma over how to fit our three decent centre-halves into his side has been solved... by all three of them getting injured in the last week. Something Bristol Rovers duly took advantage of to end our month-long unbeaten run on Saturday.
A desperate chase for replacements, before the transfer window closes, has now begun.

Also, from what I've been told and read, most Salop fans agree he deserves his ban.

Some discussion among Shrewsbury fans about what the points total will need to be for automatic promotion this year. Some reckon it will be 90 or more.
74 points is apparently the average for last place in the play offs. Shrewsbury have 61 points with 17 games to go.Last edited by Patrick Thistle; 06-02-2018, 22:35.

After an unbeaten January in the league without even conceding a goal Wimbledon have now lost two games in four days conceding four times.
The 2-0 defeat to Rotherham was understandable but tonight’s 2-1 loss in their game in hand against rock bottom Bury sounds like a shocker. A win would have seen them up to fifteenth but as it is they managed to go down the table one place to 19th despite it being the only game in the division.
To be fair to Bury they appear to be in a small run of form and it sounds like they dominated. The Dons are right back in trouble now and the visit of 20th place Northampton on Saturday is going to be a real pressure game.

It's both. Progress in the cup has seen the need for league games to be rearranged but our two league games immediately preceding the Milwall game were both called off because of the pitch. If we win our games in hand we'll be out of the bottom four but that's still a lot to ask. Momentum and confidence are wonderful things though so who knows...
