fresh from a ten men triumph at the daggers, town face another away game, this time in the cup against newport county. the ko is 12.30 on saturday and the match is to be televised by espn newport are in the lowly place of 22nd out of 24 and their most recent claim to fame is holding league leaders wrexham 1-1 at wrexham. shrews will recieve tv income of £67500 plus £18000 if they win, it is to be hoped that gt will pick 11 men who are capable of staying on the pitch for 90 mins. although a cup tie, i predict town winning 3-0, gornell, collins and morgan. att 4998
marvin can play if picked, i assume the attendances quoted are the travelling supporters, and rest assured county will be up for this game. amwythig am byth. rowland is taking some sparkling dolgellau port to share with the newport directors. i understand the grapes are well trodden by bontdu goldminers
Dolgellau port !!...the way hes saving money, i would have thought it would be sparkling water direct from the river Wnion.
I am confused (nothing new). Are we playing Newport managed by Justin Edinburgh or Edinburgh managed by Phil Newport? Must win game for Newport or Edinburgh. Newport or Edinburgh 0 Shrewsbury 5 (Morgan 2, Gornell 2, Richards) Attendance 2465
And there was me thinking we were playing Newport that was just in Edinburgh, no wonder I couldn't find it on the map
Well we beat Dagenham & Redbridge comfortably enough in the end so Newport & Edinburgh should hold no fears for the mighty Salopians, even if they have 22 players. Bring 'em on.
This one has potential banana skin written all over it - remember the horror shows against Blyth and Staines. Never mind, those were under Simpson whose teams had problems playing against those teams lower in the league than us. Will Turner put the new loanee into midfield and play one up (presumably Gornell) or will he call Marvin back and go back to 4-2-4. I predict it will be the latter and that Marvin will break his recent duck in a narrow win though, quite frankly, I would settle for a draw and a replay back at the Meadow.
Giving Morgan an opportunity to score against a team ranked lower than us might help his scoring run continue. Let's hope we don't have a stinker of a game.
home win, goal less draw, scoredraw, away win, goalfest! no just a close away win please, please mr bugger prove tinned hats wrong, i just hope he is not alergic to tv cameras. could the gas come unstuck?
i still think these are all travelling away supporters,surely county have supporters for this welsh cup final. come on county where are you princess, the prince is on his way, with 12 bottles of wnion sparkling water to refresh you and a bottle of lithuanian port for the first through the turnstiles. floreat salopia, amwythig am byth, come on shrews breath on 'em
