| DERBY COUNTY v SHREWSBURY TOWN League 1 #31 |
| Saturday 10th Feb 2024, 1500, Pride Park Stadium |
It seems like a long time since the last match - literally 7 days and I go bored in between. Still here we go again - ready to go top but then decide we don't like it - going top that is.
A great result v Charlton - note I said result - it would be nice to be comfortable going into the last 10 minutes. Still, it was nice to someone score without a matching pair of boots.
And guess what? we're literally still 4 points from the top.
Shrewsbury come to us from Vidal's back yard after a home defeat against a varsity team. They have struggled in parts this season and have not really hit their stride.
Team selection will be interesting - hoping to see CB-T play a role and stop us getting nervous in the final 20 minutes. And lets hope Conor Hourihane keeps his counsel after his words with the Derby fans last time at Shrewsbury.
Shewsbury also got a new manager a couple of weeks ago and will be hoping to invoke the new manager/sacked manager bounce.
FT:
Flamenco 0 - 0 Vasca da Gama
