    Slade and the players

    Lack of desire. I notice it seems to mean a lot to George Thomas. He never seems to give up. Beavon as well. Too many heads dropping from too many other players though.

    Match Thread Shrewsbury v Coventry Match Thread - Saturday 4th Mar

    Wednesday 7th December since we last had a clean sheet in the league.

    Nathan Clarke

    What we need is someone to spot talent while they are still talent. We seem to keep bringing in people based on past glories (Clarke, the Bulgarian international, Gadzhev) or be expecting them to still be the same player they were years previous. Either that or we have a tendancy to bring in...

    Slade Rumour

    Oggy is the Clipboard King. If they sack him he could easily get a job at Ryman's.

    Yep. If you look at who deserves a place on Saturday I think you will struggle to look past Beavon, G Thomas and Reilly.

    Nathan Clarke

    I can accept the odd poor game though, Steve, but for Clarke to put in two non-existent tackles in two consecutive matches, that worryingly points to something much worse to my mind. To me that points to a lack of appetite and desire. A lack of effort. He just doesn't seem that type of player...

    We find out our Wembley opponents tomorrow...

    That's posh university students for you.

    It is too early to say Shrewsbury is a must win?

    Sorry, have to add the caveat of course that all the other teams maintain the same gap too.

    It is too early to say Shrewsbury is a must win?

    Milton Keynes away on 18th March. That would be the first feasible date we could actually be down.

    And so modest too.

    It is too early to say Shrewsbury is a must win?

    I did work it out before. 12 games left, 36 points to play for. With the team 5th from bottom now being 14 points clear it is still going to be a little time yet. I guess if we lost the next 4 games and whoever was 5th from bottom won the next 4 that would do it. Another 4 games gone would...

    Ha, ha!! Only just noticed the date of it. :) Thought it was a post from today. That will teach me to pay more attention in future won't it. Never noticed that post before.

    Shame we didn't keep this one.

    That's fine. As long as he hasn't gone to a League Two rival.

    Sam Ricketts

    I thought Ricketts was excellent at first. Cool, calm, collected and good at organising the defence. By the end though his legs had indeed clearly gone and he was getting skinned and started to make lots of mistakes.

    Slade last night.

    It's rife, mate!! Ha, ha, ha! ;)

    Nathan Clarke

    Indeed. He has always fallen short for my liking. Too many errors in him. Shame.

    Nathan Clarke

    Never ever said such a thing and you know it you completely demented lunatic. ;) Ha, ha!!! Never ever said strengthening ONLY means in terms of numbers only. Mogga eyes one more loan for Sky Blues Here though it talks of Mowbray deciding to strengthen because he has depleted numbers. Don't...

    Slade last night.

    I reckon if you look at Oggy's clipboard all that will be written on there will be 'Job for life!' I reckon he shows that to the rest of the bench every time a goal goes in against us.
