We won't score many goals with Woods and Wes partnership in centre mid Really ? In fairness at the start of the season neither of them got forward very much and that was a bit of a weakness in the team However now the formation has settled down, the players know each others game better, and have confidence from good results their movement is much better. Both players look better for it, as do the team Good to see as all to often players have started well for us then faded. Great to see wes and woods game improve as the season goes on.

Its not Jackson the team are playing for. I stand by my comment that he's not popular and should of gone when Turner did,a win against little old Bury won't change my mind. Jackson out. I was going to reply to this post but, when it came to it, I just thought it was so daft it didn't need anything more to be said.

And he shouldn't have gone when Turner did? I imagine you'll be in the minority.

Seems a good guy. Seems to know where to find good players in league and non-league. Seems like the sort of manager I would want to play for if I was a player. So far so good.

And he shouldn't have gone when Turner did? I imagine you'll be in the minority. Why do you assume that because I disagree with you I must believe the exact opposite? You're partly right though - I saw no need for Jackson to go when Turner did and nothing that's happened since has changed my mind about that. Your beef against Jackson just seems to be twisting your perspective - such as when you dismiss the win against "little old Bury". Who are we exactly, "mighty Shrewsbury"? I don't care whether Jackson, or anybody else, is popular (although I'm curious to know how much you know, or whether this is all just based on leftover rumours). Management isn't about popularity. I wouldn't expect the team to be playing for Jackson, nor for any other assistant manager. I'd expect there to be a bit more to it than that. Why do you care so much about his popularity, or otherwise? It's not a playground, it's a workplace and everybody doesn't have to be best mates to succeed. I don't care who likes who, it seems to be working pretty well so far. Jackson in.

Just thought I'd bump this up to make the OP look a t**t. The title of the thread has been altered since it was created and did not originally include the second question.

Lets leave the celebrations and the (rightly deserved) "Told you so" threads until we have promotion and hopefully some silverware in the bag.
We can do this!!!

I have a serious question. I was going to do a post "will Mickey Mellon be with town next season" I will post it now but alter it to will MM be with us by Christmas? I know the job is not done but MM has a lot of admirers in the Championships league, and if town get off to a great start in league 1, assuming a lot., MM could well be head hunted.
in the meantime I would like to thank RW for appointing him and to thank MM, not forgetting Jacko and the coaches for all their hard work this season. not forgetting Mickeys Marvels.
this is a bit of a swansong for old AJ, as I have an eye condition which means less use of the computer and has affected my driving. sadly I will not be up for the Exeter game, but I will be there in spirit.

Sorry to hear about your eye condition AJ My Father was partially sighted for years and I must say the RNIB were amazing! Get in contact with them they helped him to view his computer with free software, viewers etc They will also help you to get reduced train fares too! ... Don't give up on us yet pal...

Can only reverberate the sentiments above AJ. Quite sure there is life in the old dog yet! Hope there are options that work out for you my friend.

Sorry to hear of your eye problems. From personal experience within my family I am very aware of the difficulties it brings.

As others have said AJ, sorry to hear of your eye condition.
For Exeter have you considered getting the train to Exeter and coming on the Exeter supporters coach? The Exeter fans are a good bunch, one of my favourite sets in fact from all my years of playing and then running the Away Supporters team.

Hi Jenny. thanks for the suggestion of Exeter supporters coach, Bellevueshrew, I do not think I could cope with long coach journeys. I am investigating a day return journey at £180 return! but buying split journey tickets I can get a day return for £60.50. not bad but too long a day for AJ.

In regards to trains I'm visiting for the weekend of the Exeter game and got 2 x £18 return to Wellington from Ipswich saving about £25 not paying direct to shrewsbury and it's still cheaper to buy that last leg separate - but remain on same train. I'm going off peak but you may find a saving money that way AJ
