Analysis: Frustration mounting after Shrewsbury serve up a shocker
It will have been hard for the most positive of Shrewsbury fans to have left the Croud Meadow with any optimism at all.
Town’s latest defeat was a truly awful game of football for the spectator, which both sides contributed towards.
The fixture looked as if it was destined to be a goalless draw, which in truth was all the spectacle deserved, but a defensive lapse from Town in the 85th minute allowed Jamie Reid to steal the points for Steve Evans’s men.
The loss led to Town fans showing their frustration at full-time with boos and chants aimed at the head coach Matt Taylor.
The pressure is most definitely starting to mount on him and his team as they simply need results.
The facts of the matter are pretty bleak and make fairly distressing reading for the Town fans.
The loss was their sixth in the last seven games across all competitions and the goal stats are truly woeful with the team having scored 17 goals in their 27 League One games – they have only scored in 12 of those games.
The main issue has been there for all to see for some time now and yet, unfortunately, no improvements have been made at this stage.
