Walsall 3-1 Shrewsbury

Tommy Wright (2), Dann

Saw Shrewsbury play last night and they really were rubbish. That's probably not so good for us though. Anyhow, I think we'll create plenty of chances and win in convincing style.

You didn't think Swindon gave us a wake up call then? The problems we're having, which people talk about, will not be solved until we can bring in a couple of midfielders. This won't happen until the new year, so we've just got to put up with things as they are.

Just said on the radio that Asamoah's out.not sure if that's good or bad.he looked useful v us when he was outside the penalty area but lacked anything cutting.

Two nil to the Saddlers.

Attendance = 6000+/Whatever figure Jeff decides to throw out this week when we all know there's more than that there.

Good news. That leaves them with Cooke, Symes and Fortune-West to choose from. Bearing that in mind, I think our midfielders will have neckache by the end of the game.

No. Two draws against teams near the exit to the Conference doesn't look like the alarm has gone off yet. We have the same midfield, plus Wrack minus Kinsella (how many games did he have?), that got us 7 points clear. There just doesn't seem to be any passion in the side now.

They certainly won't have leg ache. :roll:

2-0 to the Saddlers. Bedeau and Butler.

Only problem we have is that we are too complacent.

Perhaps putting Ishy on for Wright for the Shrewsbury Game and putting Craig Pead back in might shake it up a bit, give us a fresh approach. We'll also certainly have to put Roper on as well. Would be ncie to see Keates back as well, if anyone plays with heart its that kid.
Butler and Wright up front with Sam and MWright on the Bench?

Considering the fact we have the opportunity to shake things up a lot with the introduction of players like Keates and bringing Roper back into the side with Ish's pace, i dont think things are looking too bad.

Not necaserily from the start but ishy should play, hes the most creative thing weve got. IF hes on the bench he should at least be given 25 mins to make an impact.

I'l go for a saddlers win, but i think shrewsbury will score first.

Some high attendance predictions - hope you are right. I usually guess too high - and I was thinking sub 8000. Hoping for a return to form, but local Derby's more often than not end in draws - and as the whole league (barring Torquay v MK) is almost local derby's - could be lots of draws!

COME ON YOU REDS

Just read on the Beeb site that Keates is going to be missing again so put Pead in for him I guess.
