Shrews on a bit of a poor run recently so IF we can convert our usual possession stats to goals we can do this.
2-1 Rovers.

The bookies tend to agree with you Jeff, although current form is patchy for both.
Shrews LWLWL
Gas DWLLD and favourites to win away against a team higher than them in the table.
Shrews 2-1
Draw 9-4
Gas 5-4
1-1 Rovers to dominate possession and come away with a draw.

Safe journey all and goal prediction of Brown flakes to take us up the football league...

0-3 Gas, For no reason other than our regular high possession rate at some point must hit a rich vein and produce a goal or three… COYB.

Would take a point
Barron said on Having a Gas on Thursday that all the current squad will play in the two matches this week Shrews and the Hammers trophy tie.
All of the squad is now fit except Jordan Rossiter.

Okay, explain weetabix Derby to me. From t'other place: gasheadontour said: Some mates and I went to watch Rovers at Shrewsbury. We had been to a night club the night before and started drinking again very early. We got to near the ground starving hungry. A local corner shop near the ground would only let one of us in. We gave one of our lot a lot of notes to go in and buy any food as so hungry. To put it diplomatically, he wasn't the brightest of our lot but he seemed the most capable. He came out of the shop with lots of boxes of Weetabix. Some people in our group were furious with him. He said he bought them because we had said to him to buy any food and the Weetabix was on a special offer. We took the bix into the ground and some were launched into the low roof etc. Songs were changed so the word Weetabix was used instead of Rovers. We love you Weetabix we do etc. It was funny going through football songs so to include the word Weetabix. The weird thing is that we went again to the following away match at Shrewsbury (I think it was a cup match) and when entering the ground the away end was packed and the air thick with bix crumbs. It seemed like everyone had bix apart from us. |

Two teams playing in a similar style best described as dull... very dull.

Rovers two thirds of the possession, half the shots, none on target.
Sounds familiar....

What on earth have we been doing during training for the last two weeks of no games?
Our problem so far this season, not making the most of our possession and lack of penetration in the final third, are still clear for all to see.
And here we are again with 64% possession, no shots on target and a complete inability to make a telling pass.
Thankfully the Shrews haven't looked any better.
A 2nd half like the first and spotting the flying Weetabix will be the only excitement Gasheads will see today.

Stevenage top, what is the world coming to?
Possession football is great as long as you score!
The owners would be better trying the markets to buy a goal.....

We're not creating anything so the manager takes off one of the few creative players we have (Luke Thomas).
Go figure.
