    20th/21st/23rd December fixtures

    All change again for us at Wigan, not all that surprising, apart from bringing in Jamal Blackman in on a short term deal and goes straight into the team. Savin not even on the bench, although his confidence is totally shot

    20th/21st/23rd December fixtures

    Seems that long since we last kept a clean sheet! Wigan away for us, need a win in any way possible to give a bit of confidence ahead of the busy festive period. Could end up totally dead and buried by new years day otherwise. Not sure what Ainsworth will try. Shipley possibly to come back in...

    Saturday 14 December fixtures

    He's alluded to that in interviews in that he can't fault effort but not much he can do if the quality isn't there. After yesterday he said he's going to have to change the way he sets up the team to what he's done previously as the players aren't up to it. Major January overall required, but...

    Saturday 14 December fixtures

    Another comfortable defeat. Our lot have no fight once we go behind. The Leahy programme thing was just embarrassing. They did the same with Blackpool and Ollie Norburn too. Also weird our fans chanting for Dan Udoh. Yes he was a good servant, but don't chant his name during the game. Do it...

    Saturday 14 December fixtures

    We might be able to Nick a draw in this one. Wycombe are bound to have chances as our defensive players just aren't good enough. Pierre and Benning should be back for this, but no idea what Ainsworth will do with the team. Said after the Cambridge game that he can't fault the effort and it's not...

    Saturday 7 December Fixtures

    We manged to sell him to Burton for a fee. Came to Shrewsbury injured, had a spell in the team last November, scoring the winning goal against Reading and looked like he could become a bit of a cult hero. Then got injured again and didn't really play when Hurst came in. Doesn't seem the most...

    Not sure of the stats but we seem to concede most weeks within the first 10 minutes after half time. Needs sorting fast

    Saturday 7 December Fixtures

    Ainsworth certainly has his work cut out. As you say tho, Pierre and Benning both suspended today. Of the back 4 today, Nurse has been out for 2 years and barely played, M Feeney 1st game back after injury, Ojo isn't a CB and Hoole has only come back into the team since Ainswroth came in. Less...

    Saturday 7 December Fixtures

    Ainsworth doesn't have the quality in the squad. What he can do is get them to give more effort. I saw more in the first half hour against Blackpool than anything under Hurst. The problem with Pierre being out is that Nsiala will have to start. Any pressure on him and he'll give you a chance...

    Tues 3rd/Weds 4th December fixtures

    Back to reality last night following the Birmingham win with our defeat against Blackpool. Outrageous wind assisted fluke free kick from inside our own half from Benning early on, the type you see in Sunday league where the ball bounces on the edge of the box and flies over the keeper. On top...

    Tuesday 26 November fixtures

    What do you mean fluke, the Sky commentator said it was a quality finish! Think it shows the quality of commentator on the Soccer Special these days. (Of course it was a fluke)

    Saturday 23rd November fixtures

    Gareth Ainsworth's Barmy Army! As i said before, not there but I'm guessing the 11 minutes of added time is a sign of things to come

    Early days still but appears it's a shame I'm away for the Birmingham game today!

    League 1 General Chat Thread

    Most of the stuff aimed at McClean is totally over the top and unnecessary and i dont condone it. He's entitled to his beliefs like anyone else. He's not totally innocent in some cases in that he goads fans just like some other idiot players. Last year at Shrewsbury in the cup early on in the...

    Saturday 23rd November fixtures

    On what seems to be the got debate about the walk to our ground from the train station, I'd probably say half an hour for a comfortable walk. I'm a fast walker and can get to the ground from the other side of town in just over 45 minutes, but take a few short cuts. It's a shame that we had to...

    Saturday 23rd November fixtures

    As has already been said, police advice as to why it was moved. Same with Wrexham in January until Sky switched it to a Thursday night. Will be a big ask for Ainsworth's first game tomorrow. Still likely to lose but hopefully see some fight in the team unlike the last few games and at least...

    Is it time for a 'Managerial Merry go round' thread?

    Ainsworth's first interview has given some belief to the fans that there is a chance of staying up. On the face of it it's a good appointment, but as has been said elsewhere probably not a short term one. If he can inspire this group to at least give 100% effort for 90 minutes and stop the...

    Is it time for a 'Managerial Merry go round' thread?

    Gareth Ainsworth now confirmed at Shrewsbury. Only Birmingham at home to start before another week off

    Is it time for a 'Managerial Merry go round' thread?

    There are some that haven't forgiven him! The officials that day still havent been forgiven either as we missed out on automatic promotion that season. Best of the names mentioned for us. Were used to anti-football under Cotterill
