    I believe he is posting pictures on Instagram rather than Twitter.

    He's injured and probably going to be out for some time, hence going back to Stoke. Same with the Crewe lad who's scored a load also on loan from Stoke.

    He still held a spot in L1. Whatever Shrews offered him must have been higher that whatever L2 offers he got. I doubt he took a low salary just to play in L1.

    Wright would have plenty of offers from L1 if he left us. Managers love this type of player.

    That’s because their boss like Grant wants them to play tippy tappy nonsense and look at their results where eventually mistakes are made . We don’t play like that and didn’t last season either . He’s better than Kelly who will be released back to L2 in the summer .

    Gilliead held a role in a cash strapped Shrewsbury team that couldn't afford to buy anyone else, and as a result finished dead last. Not a good example to use

    Sounds like Barnsley are in their cash-in phase. They are entertaining bids for Cleary and also Keillor-Dunn from the sounds of things, KD has had two champ bids logged for him and Cleary had one from Blackburn all officially rejected so far, all fall short of valuations but it sounds like KD is the one more likely to go.

    Cant see many bidding for Shep, he's looked really ropey whenever i've seen any of their play this season. He depends too much on the diving when in trouble which worked in L2 but in L1 he's finding himself in trouble most games and their fans are done with him by all accounts.

    They took Vadaine Oliver off us when they were in L1, any player comp from their bargain bin of a L1 team needs shelving on that basis alone.

    The issue with some fans is they are happy to accept mediocrity and Wright is a good example.
    He does the basics of the skill he has.

    Why do we have to settle for that
    Nobody has anything personal against these players, but given our position we need upgrades.

    Get painter and decorator to paint your walls but they simply can’t paint the Mona Lisa.

    Yeah you're right.

    I've been thinking I really like that Metcalfe when watching games recently but it turns out I was thinking of Gareth Whalley or summat.

    A struggling Shrewsbury offering more money doesn’t prove he’s League One quality, it proves they were short on options. The league table ultimately backed that up.

    We've already done this and you conveniently ignored my reply as it made you look daft. I'm not sure why you've gone in for a second bite.

    That'll be handy as most of our suggested new signings will come from there.

    It was on the back of the 461 assists in the 23/24 season.
