This nasty piece of work tours the country stirring up hatred (when he’s not in prison) and has a string convictions including one under the Terrorism Act. Definitely not welcome in Shrewsbury (or anywhere else) come to that.

Fair play to the Chairman for answering the letter from fans. To me he still sounds a little reluctant to be handing the club on and is in denial about the current budget. The sooner this deal gets over the line the better.

Cowards who won’t even show their faces.
This morning at 7:30am, a group of men dressed in black and their faces covered, gathered in Dover.

The men, members of the anti-migrant vigilante group Patriot Platform, proceeded to block the port of Dover and several roads nearby.

Roland Wycherley may well have saved Salop once but his incompetence and lack of investment in recent years have pretty much bled the club dry. What a sad way to leave and what a terrible legacy to pass on 👎
