I've Shrews/Wrexham on.
Fletcher still has that great first touch & vision.
Never realised he's a Shrews born lad.

Possibly the most underrated player we've ever had.

Ipswich losing at home to Brighton....They could easily follow the same path as Luton.

Not seen any of the game, but the stats look very top-heavy Brighton.

It was.
Ainsworth's got better long hair than me though.
Can't have that from a Blackburn lad.

There is no way you can compare the teams
We would absolutely be on more than 6 points with the way we set up
They are not streets ahead of us at all

I’ve just been on this game with my wife who is a Shrews fan. Not a top quality game but lots of passion on and off the pitch.
Good night out.

'Proper' derby. Proper footy too. Atmosphere on the ground must have been electric! Sounded good on tv.

More Forster's error IMO. If you see a man in the penalty area facing his own goal with an opponent charging towards him from behind, you really shouldn't give him the ball. THB should have played it out for a corner if he'd known that Amad was behind him.

Not sure how anyone can watch it and conclude that it wasn't THB's error. Even he knew instantly.

Understand where you're coming from but that thinking is a little bit outdated with this passing out from the back style that everyone is now adamant they want to play despite 95% of the pyramid being shite at it.
An opponent charging at you is exactly what you're after, as if they were any good at it they'd shift the ball to where Amad was and then they'd have acres of space opened up. Poor touch from THB is what naffed that up.

Will have to agree to disagree on that but I reckon the only area we are better than them is the defence ,their left winger was loads better than anything we have.

He goes by the name of Aaron Ramsdale nowadays.
