I'd be very surprised if MT doesn't retain three in midfield for an away fixture after it's served us so well. So, for me this will be Harper's first start.

I reckon it could also be Stansfield's first start. As we are without Smith I can only see us starting with one of Nombe or Stansfield for the time being and because we play Burton on Saturday and (I think) they are more physical than Shrews then I think Nombe is more likely to start against Burton.

I’m not sure it has served us well away from home has it? We haven’t won yet. Let’s get all the big guns in, let’s attack them and win.

Right about Harper, right about one up front but wrong player. Two out of three ain't bad

Good to see Smith on the bench too.

Kite filling in at the back or a back 4 ??

 

[Grecian2K]

And Bowman merely warming the bench for the Shrews!

With he and young Stanno on the sidelines, "impact sub time"?

Worrying injuries to our centre halves here

 

[Colesman Ballz]

Bowman starts on the bench for the Shrews.

Blimey thats a lot of defensive injuries to have such a back three.
