You haven't seen us yet TBF! You may change your opinion come December. I was hoping at the start of the season there would be 4 worse teams. That hope is fading fast. The new manager needs to keep us in touching distance until January and then we need to find cash that we don't have and sell...

Dreadful game of football, and yet again we barely laid a glove on you. Did Crocombe make a save all game? Chairman has apparently said to the fans on one of the supporter coaches today they will have something to smile about Monday. Imagine that's a new manager. Will need to be a miracle...

The Beast from Burnley. Yep that's the one. He's been our goalkeeping coach for a few years now

Sure to be a classic for the Sky cameras for 24th v 23rd and managerless Burton v managerless Shrewsbury. Not even been mentioned who's in temporary charge officially, tho likely to be Sean Parrish and Brian Jensen. Be interesting to see if we set up with the young loanees playing that Hurst had...

Apparently the club aren't interested in Wild. No other names really in the frame yet. Seemed yesterday some money went on Ainsworth in the betting markets for his odds to come down. Rumours that Rob Couhig is one of the interested parties in buying the club which is where that link must be from

Shows how bad we've been this season!

Agree that's a major issue, which is why for some of our fans it was a surprise getting rid of Hurst today. I would have got rid last week as the players looked to have downed tools then. The cup was important for finances. We've tried all different approaches. Hurst was first appointed as an...

Not surprised Hurst has gone. 2md time we've played Salford in the FA Cup and 2nd time out manager has got the sack. Once the fans turn against the chairman then the manager goes. Sadly just didn't work this time round for Hurst, but 6 wins in 37 since returning is terrible in anyone's book...

I'm usually one of the last ones to be in the manager out camp, and he has been dealt a bad hand with the budget, but the way things are going he'd be getting called into the office. We're just so poor defensively and he's clearly fallen out with some of the young loanees which we just can't...

Last time Shrewsbury were drawn against Salford in the cup a 1-1 draw meant tge end of John Askey's shirt spell at the club. Could the same fate befall Hurst? The chairman will be desperate for a cup run to boost the coffers. Ironically the last time we failed to make the 3rd round was under...

Can't imagine we'll be paying compensation in the event of us sacking Hurst. Thought Sadler was under pressure last year?

Not a million miles off. Lost 2-0, gave away a soft goal early in the 2nd half, the subs were made on 60 minutes. We didn't have the spell knocking it about and the 1st goal came in first half stoppage time. Today was the game where the questions of Hurst started mounting, which started with...

Barnsley at home. Have a spell knocking it about, give away a soft goal early in 2nd half, Hurst makes some subs around 70 minutes, Barnsley nick a 2nd late on and everybody wanders off home. Hopefully wrong but our games especially at home follow a bit of a pattern

Absolutely understand why. Fair play to Griffiths, he took a chance. We had one against Exeter where Woods handled a Benning shot, but nobody appealed for it. Under Cotterill we were one of the worst for trying to influence officials, rightly or wrongly. At the end of the day, had Marquis just...

Wasn't there a comment a few years back saying if you're not interfering with play why are you on the pitch? Would make things more simple going back to the very old rule, as the rules as they are currently are subjective. The frustrating thing about it is that there was the high profile one in...

Agree draw would have been fair. Actually the 2nd goal we've had disallowed for Marquis not getting back in line with the defenders. Although the other one in the tin pot trophy against Birmingham he stood in front of the keeper with no attempt to move. Barely seems interested when he plays...

It shows why we're right at the bottom in that we give the opposition so many chances but also don't take the good ones that we actually get (Marquis and Lloyd last night for example). It then doesn't help when the officials take a guess at an offside to rule out a goal originally given. The TV...

I'm more amazed that our players didn't make more of the handball appeals. Think Woods' body hid the contact. Benning should have been screaming for it. It was highlighted at half time. The tackle on Aitchinson by J Feeney was certainly in the category of seen them given. I'd have wanted it...

The weird thing is that as poor as we were last season we weren't in the relegation zone once. It's also mad to think that Taylor had a better record than Hurst since his return. We've only won 2 league games at home since the end of January, one of which being a very poor Carlisle team. Last...

Think it's probably more the point that we haven't got the money to get rid of the management team even if the Chairman wanted to
