... to Crawley.
Super by all players.
Fans great and as I hung around later for a later train had a chat to some Pompey fans, 'best team we've seen here all season'.
Also commented on how Grandson was a 'beast', fair play he stands his ground shall we say!
MOM hard to pick but Woods was everywhere today.
Windy as however so worth it given how well we played, great away day!
Up the Town!

Got back to Shrews at 8:15pm great performance by the team. Good to see how much it meant to them at the end.

Back in car before 5pm. Pretty well dual carriageway/motorway all the way back to the edge of Shrewsbury. Steady 80mph most of the way home except for roadworks in the vicinity of the dive that is Telford. Satisfied smile all the way home.

Was expecting a really tough game today but that was one of the most convincing performances I've seen from us this season, looked dangerous going forward all afternoon and always felt we had another gear or two if we needed it. Other than a goalmouth scramble at the beginning of the second half I can't really remember any genuine chances they had, a few fantastic blocks in there but was such a mess I couldn't work out who from. Thought Akpa looked class today, was all over Nosworthy, won a lot in the air and made a nuisance of himself every time the ball came anywhere near him, he had a golden chance in the second half where he hit it on the volley first time but was through on goal and should've taken a touch and probably scored but we know you get that from him, otherwise one of his best performances of the season and linked up well with Jimmy. Lawrence quality again, he is a class above and he is showing it more every game. Grando and Ellis particularly really solid at the back, agree about Demetriou and Grant, linked up really well meaning we had a lot of joy down the left today, also thought Gayle had a really good game, much more positive, I've often criticised him for not being attacking enough but looked good going forward and was solid in defence.
Before today I thought we'd get 4 wins, 3 draws from our last 8 games so to get 3 points today puts us in a very good position to better that, if we play like we did today in our remaining fixtures there's no reason why we can't go unbeaten for the rest of the season and push Burton all the way for the title. Bury's postponement can only be a good thing as the pressure is on them now facing a 7 point gap, they've been on a good run recently and when you're going well you want to be playing games, they also now face 3 weeks back to back of playing 2 games a week.
Burton's next few games will be very interesting, Stevenage, Plymouth, Wycombe, Luton compared to Dagenham, Mansfield and Exeter for us, I can't see them winning all four of those and todays result puts pressure on them, lets hope it starts to tell.
