I left Dubai 6 months ago smart arse, so have been to every game, home and away this season.

You think the reason we lost to Bradford is because Shepherd is playing? Nonsense. They were more physical than us and 2 of their 3 goals came from the other side of the pitch! You've said you only go to Saturday games. Shepherd has played a total of 45 minutes in Saturday games. So you've seen the guy play for a maximum of 45 minutes and now you will only feel optimistic if he plays?!

Honestly, you're talking crap. You've been talking the same crap since the start of the season.

In 45 minutes he's convinced me he should be playing ahead of Lopes, he shows an iota of ability to defend

2 of Bradford's 3 goals came from the other side where the other attacking player was playing at wing back. Playing players out of position consistently doesn't work, it never has and never will. The better teams will exploit this.

You realise we've played 4-4-2 for the last 2 games right? And we played that formation in the game you're claiming you went to on Saturday? So now you want to drop Edwards too? The guy who has clearly been our most consistent player this season.

I think it's clear that you don't really know what you're talking about.

Yeah we get it, you've got a extremely good side for this level and will probably piss the league.

Just no need to be an arrogant c*** with it.
Nah, I’m going to enjoy this after suffering through the likes of Oxford, Pompey and Scunthorpe fans (well just Lance) gloating about how we’d struggle in pre season.

Funny that, they all said same about us too...

With the exception of Bradford and Charlton and obviously the relegatated sides the quality in this league is fucking awful.

You're not even a good WUM anymore. If the quality of 19 of the teams in this league is fucking awful, then why is one of them 7 points ahead of you?

Shrewsbury - this years one aide who starts the season incredibly well but ends up finishing mid table when they start playing as their squad should be.

Apart from them my point stands doesn’t it? Clutching at straws son. Although maybe I shouldn’t have included Blackburn as a side who isn’t as shit as the rest cos let’s be reyt you’re playing like you are.

I would suggest after 13 games and 5 points clear of the team in 3rd might suggest we are better than you think, Iam sure Blackburn Bradford, Posh were not expecting to lose yesterday so on the face of it whilst drawing with Plymouth might seem disappointing it was a good point and I am sure the above teams will wish they did the same yesterday against lower opposition. As for playing above our normal level well I think the 14 players Hurst brought in are proving they are better than some so called experts on this message board. Of course we shall lose sooner than later no doubt some are hoping we lose 4 or 5 on the bounce and if we did, it probably will be likely that Blackburn will still be behind Shrewsbury and possibly Rotherham as well.

It’s gone to your head pal. Tranmere part 2.

If it doesn’t happen before then the 18th of November will see you put back in your place.

Must mean you're even worse, seen as we completely played you off the park a couple of weeks ago.

Like I said, shit WUM.

Yep. You should judge a team off one performance.

Your idiocy and naivety is showing.

And you've watched how many Rovers games live this season? Presumably 0 as you don't strike me as the type who actually watches their team away from home. It's far more fun to talk shit on a football forum after all.

In fairness Rotherham look the real deal now, far better team than I was expecting at the start of the season. Blackburn and Charlton should improve and be up there but we'll see.

Wigan will win the league by March, and hopefully we'll be up there fighting for second. I'll take Shrewsbury seriously if they are still top 4-5 at the end of January.

Very cute.

Hahaha not missed a game all season.

The game at your place was fucking tragic. No one could have argued had it been 0-0.

Funny how your fans thought you were brilliant that day when in fact we were just fucking awful and you would have been steamrolled like most of the division had we been playing at our full potential.

Blackpool's evil owners still killing the club I see.

You aren't that thick are you? I'm coming to the conclusion that you are. There's rivalry ignorant and then there's football ignorant. You're doing both.

Once a prick always a prick I guess, kid.

On course for back-to-back promotions thanks to Karl's continued support, if only the fans would do the same.

Phil Brown on Goal Rush....'That team at the top.....' I don't quite get his beef with Shrewsbury and it's not as if Southend are anything special. He's a nobhead.

The disrespect Shrewsbury have been shown doesn't sit right at all. They're ten points clear of 3rd now. They've got nothing to prove to anyone else in this league, and in fact some of the people talking in this forum ought to have a look at their own teams before they try to condescend to others.

I doubt they'll lose sleep over it, it's up to them a keep going to silence the doubters as Burton did a couple of year ago.

Reckon the burden is on the chasers tbh. Can't talk shit about them slipping up when, bar Wigan, the points gap between themselves and the rest of the division is so big. If they maintain midtable form from now until the rest of the season they should breeze into the playoffs. Can't say the same about any of those other 22 sides.

I agree with that in the main, but don't know why they would take issue with fans 'disrespecting' them. I'd happily let others be complacent if it were us in that position. Reminds me of us under Parkinson where everyone said how lucky we were, or how shit we were. Never understood our fans/and fans of other teams who take it as a personal insult when people insult a club, who gives a shit in reality?
