Shrewsbury v Rotherham: The table doesn’t lie - but boss wants a positive vibe
Shrewsbury Town must maintain a positive mentality for the challenges to come rather than getting hung up on their league position, according to Paul Hurst.
Salop sit second from bottom in the League One table with only Cambridge United below them.
They welcome Rotherham to the Croud Meadow this weekend as they seek to kick-start their 2024/25 campaign.
The table does not paint a pretty picture for Shrews are at present, but the Town head coach says they have to look ahead to what they can still have an effect on.
“I haven’t paid much attention to it,” Hurst said on the league table. “But I would be lying if I said I have not seen it because Sky Sports News is in on and eventually the league table pops up.
“So I am aware of where we currently sit, and people might think it is wrong, but my own opinion and the way that I am judging this season is very much game to game and not just the cliché, but concentrate on the next one and see what result we can get.”
