No more Gay Meadow

I was glad of the opportunity to give a shout-out to Shrewsbury Town on the local party Web page. The club is clearly on the up. If my old work colleague and Shrews supporter Andy Fryer is reading this, I hope we will meet again in the Premier League, just as we agonised at the Vetch Field when our clubs fought in the lower divisions of the Football League.

Shrewsbury are clearly going places. I had my doubts about their snaffling manager Sam Ricketts from Wrexham after less than a complete season in charge at The Racecourse, but results have vindicated their judgement. Having dumped Stoke City out of the FA Cup, Shrews achieved a creditable draw with Wolves (another club  progressing, after years in the doldrums).
