Re: Nice and Early Shrewsbury Town Match Thread.........
Taken off blue & amber (shrews forum).... [B]Re: Accrington vs Shrewsbury Match Thread Nsiala was outstanding; I thought Collins started well but Nsiala got the better of him and he won nothing in the 2nd half. The draw was fair but we'd have lost in the 2nd half but for Neal - easily our man of the match. Felt a bit flat at the end but that was because I thought we were going to close the gap on Swindon. A good point in the end and we're another step closer.
Was my first visit to Accrington and I loved it. Very friendly & generous club - the PA announcer saying we'd have a lap of honour if we went up (I know they wanted to keep people off the pitch but how many clubs would offer that on their own patch? Most would just warn fans to keep off.) and offering the consolation at the end that we only needed another point. It struck me that in many ways Accrington represent a lot of the best aspects of lower league football but, in another sense, much of what we're trying to leave behind. I wish them well anyway. Made a great weekend of it up there and will do it again - though hopefully visiting Preston next season instead!

Re: Nice and Early Shrewsbury Town Match Thread.........
Were our 1616 fans last Saturday the highest ever visiting attendance at your ground as has been reported?

Re: Nice and Early Shrewsbury Town Match Thread.........
I can't say they were all great because obviously the ones arrested and the idiots in the Crown after the game and around town that night were complete tools, but I suppose its only to be expected out of 1600 plus fans.
Having said that, it was a minority and Shrewsbury fans have always been one of the larger fanbases that I like. They travel in numbers (even back in the Conference days), make some noise, mingle well and frequently seek out Stanley fans to chat with. They are also one of the few bigger clubs that in the main respect us rather than belittle us. Good old Saloppers. As Welsh as Hereford but we'll class 'em as English due to their immense good eggery. |
