Strange to see squad named without Whits.
But we move on.

Quite an exciting line-up .

Blackburn are taking on Grimsby Town tonight. No idea if Whits is playing but if he is I'm sure Russell will have a plan to stifle his creativity.

Grimsby beat Tavistock 7-1 last week

I'm sure Russell will have a plan to stifle his creativity.

Still talking about Russell right?

Still talking about Russell right?

He's the manager of Grimsby Town.

Still no sign of Camp & also no Murphy tonight. With Camp's continued absence looks like Etheridge will start the season & he will have a great opportunity to establish himself as our No 1 keeper

Camp has been living rough on the streets for 9 months. He'll need a good few weeks to get up to full fitness.

I hope there is no problem with Murphy - and this is more about giving Byrne experience with the first team.

In think Etheridge will be a surprise package.

Goal. Shrews 0-1 City. Tap in for Mendez-Laing after Zohore battled well in box.

HT 0-1

[Michael Morris]

Two in two mins for Shrewsbury. First one a penalty

[Thoth]

Warnock OUT!!

[Penarth Blues]

Looks like we're going to give away lots of pens this season if pre-season is anything to go by...

Luckily, it's not.

[Thoth]

Looks like another relegation battle beckons.

[jon1959]

This is turning into a useful test.

Defensive worries - in the area of the squad's greatest strength (allegedly).

According to the iFollow commentary Etheridge has been a bit shaky this half - but rather now than Burton!

[Rjk]

Thank god we picked up the three points against Tavistock or we could be slipping into the relegation zone

[life on mars]

Shrewsbury, Champions League contenders this year.

[Michael Morris]

City second best in second half. We aren't cutting through them like they are through us. And their fans are making Etheridge uncomfortable.

To be honest it should be 4 - 1 at least.
