Last two visits there have been miserable results wise - hoping for at least some sort of result tomorrow. Shrewsbury need a win to be sure of safety however, so expecting them to throw everything at it. Will be interested to see how many changes are made to our side and also if a few kids are involved somehow.

Can see us losing there again between them desperately needing the win and us perhaps making a few changes with our own safety already assured, but looking forward to a rather lovely game in the sun regardless. Incredibly happy that we can just enjoy the occasion a little rather than going there needing some sort of result!
 
With 50 points, Shrews won't feel safe yet so will be all out to make this home fixture count.
However, our current run should give us confidence for a 1-3 win.
 
Wouldn't be surprised to see Carruthers start. And perhaps a rest for some with Ruffels/Henry at the top of the list. Conditioning for next season starts now as we have seen with Whyte.

Sub keeper to be Max Harris I'd imagine with Agboola out on loan and Clayton to be released. We signed Harris from Hereford around 18months ago.

Sam Smith set to be on the bench for the Shrews.
 
Setting off about 9 a.m. planning a stop on the way and then heading for the car park behind the BP garage. Optimistically got the shorts out of hibernation so apologies in advance for the sun glare off white lower legs!

Looking forward to seeing some of the younger squad getting a look in and hopefully, an exciting game. 3-1 to the Yellows.

Seen a few people saying Clayton was warming up with the keepers before Walsall away, but having just seen a picture of Harris, it was definitely him instead that day. Imagine you’re right that it’ll be him on the bench.

OxMail have said Shearer is the second GK in the squad
 
Stevens
Long Jones Nelson Ruffels
Hanson
Whyte Sykes Brannagan Graham
Mackie

Would definitely like to see Jones start, not sure who will make room for him. Nelson has played every league minute this season so I imagine he’d want to see out the last few games. If there’s a chance he could still stay, I’d start him + no offence to Dickie but Nelson’s the better CB so Jones would probably rather play with him.
Hanson getting a run out in his ‘natural’ role will be interesting, hopefully gets a run before end of the season.

0-2, Sykes + Whyte.
 
Stevens
Long Nelson Jones Ruffels
Kashi Brannagan Hanson
Whyte Mackie Graham

Changes are being talked about and with Jones being a left sided centre half I'd like to see him given a chance aswell as Hanson in midfield with Brannagan and Kashi.

1-1
Brannagan
 
wish I could've gone to this one. Shrewsbury got more to play for so will have more pressure on them, so I reckon we'll have another good result. looking forward to hearing how Stevens gets on and some of the the kids. keep a clean sheet would be great, so guessing a 2-0 win for us
 
Stevens

Long - Nelson - Dickie - Ruffels

Sykes - Hanson - Carruthers

Whyte - Sinclair - Graham

Subs: Shearer, Jones, Garbutt, Mousinho, Brannagan, Lofthouse, Lopes


I think with Stevens in goal, Robinson will go for a settled back four to give him a bit more protection.

Like it or not, Hanson was a big money signing, we have to give him some more opportunities to find a place within this squad.

KR likes Carruthers and the way he's been training, this may be a farewell appearance unless he shines.


And for my prediction? I'd like to think we're 2-0 up by half time (Nelson and Carruthers), so we can start to test some of the youth from the bench.

got to give Hanson a chance. look how it went with Kashi, Mackie and Garbutt. give him some time to get settled with a decent run of games. I've only seem him couple of times so certainly not judging him
