Can’t see Udoh wanting to stay beyond the summer. Needs to move somewhere where he can score some goals if he’s got aspirations of playing at a higher level. I can see him going to wrexham, still think he is totally wasted as a forward he will be on low wages as we gave him a new contract after a poor season, and then after a good season we triggered the extension, his poor form this season will only play into the hands of those who might have wanted him in the summer I wish him all the luck if he goes but then again I dont, nothing worse than a player who leaves and suddenly becomes a star , and then again, would love to see him put himself in the shop window next few games including wrexham

I suspect it's a January cash in and a hope Moore pulls something out the hat. Wouldn't bother me to be honest. I honestly believe league one is too high a level for him. Same goes for Bowman, and so far Mata too. Udohs about our only natural threat in a squad where the opposition probably fear the flatulence in Matty Taylors trousers than they do our forward line. If we think 14 in 23 is bad I wouldn't want to see what it's like without our top scorer.

Being the best of what we have, still doesn't mean he's up to standard. Averaging less than 1-6 games, Its a whole new approach we need. Nice guy though.

Can't wait to throw off the straitjacket of 3-5-2 or at least play it with proper attacking wing-backs. Because of injuries, we've got the wrong personnel playing the system but I'm not sure even with a fully fit squad we'd still have enough to make it work on a consistent basis. We're still screaming out for more pace and creativity - and after Saturday's match, players who can play simple forward passes quickly and who make runs to make space.

Completely disagree, we could have any striker in their prime that we’ve had over the last 20 years. All of them would struggle to reach double digits for goals in this current team.

Town career 2019-22 (before injury) 120 League/cup appearances 24 goals suggests its difficult for you to Completely disagree and suggest it's this season only. I do agree this season is particularly difficult.

I don't particularly rate our forwards at all......... Mata, Bowman, or even Udoh. The sad reality is however that even if you played Harry Kane and Mo Salah up front in this Town team, providing them with the usual hoof-up the field from Marosi, or one of the back five, they would also struggle to score.

3 goals in 12 games away from home. Those fans that travel away regularly deserve a medal.

At least we had those cracking 3-2 wins against Reading, Colchester, Notts County and Reading. We’ve never had it so good.

Let’s be honest now. Anybody who defends this disgraceful stat is complicit in our downfall
A fan base full of apathy may have bought a few months
Not much longer until a revolt at this shambles rightfully takes place

Whichever way you dress it up, 14 goals in 24 games is totally unacceptable.There's nothing malicious about pointing that out, it's a simple fact that it's not good enough.
If our goals scored don't exceed matches played in the 2nd half of the season, it shows we're not learning and not developing. 22 games to go, you'd want to be seeing a minimum of 26 goals to describe it as true progression from the first half of the season.

Happy Clappers, complicit, apathy, apologist, usual idiots Just five of the ‘nothing malicious’ you and the other ‘chuckle brothers’ have used about fans that care enough to turn up and support their team, through thick and thin! Easy to get angry behind your key boards, try living it! Especially the mocking ‘vocal few’ Some sound more like Wrexham Fans boycotting the their team during the bad times but turn up frothing at the mouth when success comes.

Sorry but you’re totally wrong - I would never disrespect our fans who went yesterday, they deserve an absolute medal and more, £28 to watch this rubbish, as I’ve said, the worst thing is you could see it coming a mile off Were an appalling football team, with no idea, no identity, I will never apologise for calling it out in the hope it might help us stay up I’ll be at Burton away and Fleetwood at home, I’m fully expecting to lose at burton, there will be massive pressure on Fleetwood, lose that and the crowd needs to turn Very strange and disappointing post…

My opinion comes from a good place, I’ve said all season we could well go down, and I maintain those who sit on their hands and defend this shambles will be complicent in my opinion As for apathy… I’ve not spoke to a single Town fan who doesn’t feel it this season, there’s an acceptance we’re terrible but this is as good as it gets - apathy is absolutely the worse and most dangerous emotion for a sports fan Anyway - back on topic - worst goals record in the Football league, and our history. A shambolic, dire and desperate state of affairs

Fans don’t choose Shrewsbury as their team because of the great football. Fans have been mocking fellow fans for weeks, needs to stop.

14 league goals in 24 games and minus 20 GD should be relegation form, but somehow we are still hanging on in mid-table.
If we don't improve in the new year we will be relegated of that I have no doubt. Going by some of the results that we have managed to pull out of the bag the players are trying to play for the manager and the badge, but the next week those same players capitulate. There is zero consistency and I think that too many players are so confident in the knowledge that they will be playing the next game regardless means that they are beyond complacent. There is hardly any competition for places apart from having 3 strikers where we have to pick the two least worst to start any given game. Some of this is down to injuries, but the fact is the recruitment in the summer brought in players that are not up to league 1 standard.

There’s always going to be disagreements, it’s part of what a message board is for.
Though you’d think it’d be impossible to find anyone who disagreed that 14 goals in 24 games is anything other than unacceptable and disgraceful.
