I'm driving to Scotland today.  I'm wondering if the wife will notice if I slow progress to the point where we're passing Salop at 3pm.  (Ideally, we'll need to be up around the Lake District by then, so a tall order!)

I'm in Wales and driving home today, tried that one also, but she twigged, and said she hoped I enjoyed the train journey home as there would be no waiting going on, if I "accidentally" ended up  near there.

They really dont like us , I find it mildly amusing that we are disliked by so many other teams. I have absolutely no ill feeling to Shrewsbury at all they are so insignificant in footballing circles apart from the fact they stole our initials.

Last season they weren't very happy when we referred to them as being Welsh....

Coupled with James Collins starting for us.....

The blow was softened when he missed a sitter in front of their home end and subsequently subbed off after an hour...

As the subject of fickle football fans is in vogue round here, I remember he got a good booing from one corner of about 100 irate fans, then when his number came up for his substitution, cuing more jeering, he turned around to that corner and gave them a couple of polite claps and ended up getting a standing ovation off the pitch.

Feeling optomistic about the trip to Wales today. Scoring goals will continue to be a problem so expecting a 0-1 result today. Red Army.....

It's quite sweet really, I like the run down of reasons to hate us, all factually true.

I think it was two seasons ago that we played them on the August BH Saturday and the Shrewsbury folk festival was on. Great atmosphere in the pubs that lunchtime including jamming sessions with harps and sword dancers in one of the pubs. Shame it 's not a week later as I would have gone there this season.

1-1 with Luongo scoring again.

Shrewsbury is indeed very nice and I very nearly did spend an afternoon there in 95-96 drinking lovely beer in a lovely pub where the Landlord claimed to be a Town fan (I suspected he claimed to be a fan of whatever club's fans were drinking in there). I tore myself away in the end to go to the game (the one where we'd already won the league). It was a great shame when they moved from Gay (tee hee!) Meadow to the Lego Stadium.

Nice to see the taffy sheep shaggers (for the record I do know where they are but they hate being called Welsh) are knowledgable about our team, a quote from their forum.

Quote
So Five spurs players on loan a Newcastle Forward on loan and they have signed a former Spurs player nothing to worry about then.

Didnt realise we had 5 loanees from Spurs and that Ranger was on loan too, I guess they must know something we don't know....or they are just a bit backward in reading facts.

At least they are kind of right JJ, if you asked me about their team I wouldn't have a clue. They got rid of marvin Morgan that's all I know.

I know they signed a loanee England U20 teammate of Pritchards yesterday, a winger from Midlesborough called Adam Reach.

Other transfer dealings so far are Alex McQuade defender a free from Bolton, Dave Winfield defender free from Wycombe, Tamika Mkandawire defender free from Milwall, Akwasi Asante striker  1 mth loan from Birmingham.

Players out are Marvin Morgan to Plymouth Argyle and Matt Richards to Cheltenham.

Except the one about the "homer ref". Apparently Shrewsbury seem to have in their heads that a referee from Salisbury must be biased, ignoring that fact it wasn't a pen - it was outside the box (just), the lino didn't flag, the ref like most in L2 was just dogshite, plenty of decisions went against us that season and one dodgy decision in February doesn't lose you the title.

I liked Shrewsbury hating us. Don't know why but I think we might come unstuck today.
