Shrewsbury have 4 at home and 1 away.
Their next match is Charlton at home next Tuesday.
Owt could still happen but I wouldn’t swap with them.

If we win the next 2 games and Shrewsbury lose their next 2 games, we will be promoted without playing by their defeat at home to Bury on Sat 21 April. If that doesn't happen it goes to Doncaster. Looking like Doncaster for me. Either way the Club have missed the chance to fill Ewood for the run in. Let's see how it goes......

Every fixture with the exception of Blackpool away for Shrewsbury is against a team with something to play for. Charlton and PBoro going for the play offs with Bury and MK fighting for their Leage one lives (It might be all over for MK Dons by the last match but rem they gave us a hard time two weeks ago). Our fixtures are similar with the next two against play off chasing teams. I think Bristol will see themselves as drinking in the last chance saloon on saturday. I'd like to believe that 3 wins will do it for us but we can't take anything for granted. As I've said before its down to mental toughness of the player's now. It is thankfully still in our own hands and we must make sure that it stays that way!

Shrewsbury certainly didn't take any prisoners last night . Watched the game on and off and their rough house tactics, which have worked well all season and for which I have to admit I have a begrudging admiration, are now beginning to cost them points . Suspensions , sendings off and bookings are piling up . If Rovers had failed to win against a very poor Bradford team it would have been cause for concern . Their result last night put our result at Gillingham into perspective. I thought it was a decent point . Four points ahead with a better goal difference , with 5 games to go is a good position to be in . A win tomorrow would be a great result , a draw a good one but a defeat would not the end of the world . The pressure is currently all on Shrewsbury .

You're right but I'd love their tempo at the mo.

So, despite the last-minute disappointment yesterday, which would have seen us with one foot in the Championship, it was still an away point.
If we win our 2 home games and draw our 2 away games, we will end on 95 points. That would mean Shrewsbury having to win all 5 of their remaining games to finish above us.
Surely we can get this done :):confused::worried:

That goal completely spoiled my early evening pint! It tasted like bloody vinegar!

You could do with posting that video on the “other” site.
I had the misfortune to look on there yesterday toward the end of the match.
What a bunch of moaning, tantrum-throwing know-nowts.
I think a few need to be placed on suicide watch- although on second thoughts, don’t bother watching, leave em to it.
