Wycombe Saturday is probably one they will target as well(not much to play for).  I know a number of Shrews fans who still think they are in trouble or at least squeeky bum. Fail to win Saturday and they could be right with Bolton and Charlton away to follow there's the potential they could be dragged right into the fertiliser.

Charlton looked in huge trouble. Talk about new manager bounce. The loon has them 11 unbeaten.

Has Gore been spotted at the games at all? Wouldn't injured players still be expected to show their faces at at least some matches?

If not, I wonder if the injury story is a smokescreen to distract from off-the-field issues?

It is an odd one that's for sure.

This article is a month old but seems to suggest he's been at vale. If that's the case, if we do see him then maybe he will be committed to the cause.

Skimming back through a number of Mike Baggers articles the last two DM updates on gore have basically said that they are waiting on the medical team to provide an update. It reads like we will know more in this Thursdays presser.

Some good points and generally I agree.  I think the reliance on loans has come back to bite us(2nd half of the season).  Whilst one of the things I applaud Flitcroft for was perhaps brokering those relationships with 'big clubs', and they are useful to have you should never rely on loanees as your best players. They should be a bonus to your permanent players.  OK in Arblaster and Devine they became 2 of our best players which is great, but when they inevitably leave(as they are both Championship standard players and above possibly even at 18-20 yo) it shouldn't rip the heart out of the team and leave you with a poor and unbalanced squad.  Lets be honest we weren't a brilliant side with them both playing 90% of the time.

Weir and Gore(although we've not seen him really) were never going to hit those standards.  That's no slight on either of them or Vale in the loan market but it's shows how sadly lacking the club has been in the permanent transfer market since we've been in league one.

Also, having so many games postponed due to call ups and then having to replay them once those decent players had been recalled. Maybe a bit of fuzzy logic on my part but it's certainly contributed to our current position.
