Shrewsbury Town v West Ham: Mat Sadler insists everyone is staying calm
Shrewsbury club captain Mat Sadler insists ‘there’s been no requirement to bring anyone back down to earth’ ahead of tomorrow’s huge clash with West Ham.
Centre-half Sadler acknowledges the FA Cup third-round tie is probably the biggest game in his time at the club, but he and his team-mates are not getting carried away.
“We’re fully focused on whatever is the next football match. We’ve got a good group of lads and there’s been no requirement to bring anyone back down to earth,” he said.
“This is probably one of the biggest games, on a personal level, since I’ve been here.
“I think it is the only time I’ve played against a Premier League club, while at Shrewsbury. (But) keeping our feet on the ground, that will continue.”
He added: "We look forward to all the outside things – the crowd, TV – but it is just the next game.
"It is a sell-out and hopefully it'll highlight what a good club Shrewsbury Town is."
