Shrewsbury 3 Morecambe 1 (Crowley) LIVE thread.

[dannymorc1]

Oh dear, another man down. Unbelievable. How much time will be added on?

[Keith]

Mayor & Ripley in a right mess, ending up with a cheap corner. 3-1.

[Redalert1970]

Game over and season very close to been over

[Angler1]

Very poor again. The next 3 games will decide our season..

[dannymorc1]

What a shambles! A needless corner given away. After all our huffing and puffing, we crumble again.

[dannymorc1]

NINE minutes to score at least 2. Ha ha.

[Redalert1970]

Sorry Angler - our away form is going to decide our season

8 points from 54 points (not good enough at any level of football)

Only Cambridge with worse away record !!!!

[jona77]

In my view we have to win the next 2 games to stand ANY chance of staying up! I still think Derek takes the team to away games trying not to lose rather than going for a win!

[Redalert1970]

Maybe we need to start thinking we just aren`t good enough for this league

7 wins
12 draws
17 losses

33 points from 108 available (that`s 75 points dropped from 36 games)

SIMPLY NOT GOOD ENOUGH

You're probably right.

[Keith]

Shrewsbury will probably have more goals than we have shots on target.

Shrewsbury 3 Goals
Morecambe 2 Shots on Target.

[Redalert1970]

Forest Green are down ...

Other 3 places now between Morecambe, Oxford, Mk Dons, Cambridge and Accrington (possibly Burton)

[Born again Bill]

Still 30 points to play for , chin up everybody . Let’s enjoy the ride while it lasts ,who knows

[dannymorc1]

I honestly don't see how we can survive in League 1. Shrewsbury are not the best team we have played, but we made it easy for them. Giveaway goals, sloppy defending has cost us today and in many previous games.
I really hope as all of us do, that Derek will create another miraculous escape for us, but it will certainly be a huge effort required.
COME ON YOU MORECAMBE REDS.

[Redalert1970]

We have won 7 from 36

We probably need 5 wins from 10

Fat lady is warming up and her singing is getting louder

I’m looking back at that forest green game when we set up again very cautiously and were lucky to end up with a point. I’m sorry to say but a lot of our away performances are down to the way Derek sets up the team. Unfortunately most results went against us today and I cannot see us getting the 15 or so points I think we will need to avoid relegation from our last 10 games.

[Wild Bill]

Never expected points today. Next three games though are massive. Couple of wins and we are optimistic again

And Port Vale, and Cambridge.

I didn't expect any points from today, but two shots on target (and often, even fewer) should make it obvious where the problem is?

[Wild Bill]

should make it obvious where the problem is?

Lack of quality up front

[CityShrimp]

In Dereks defence, he does say in his last interview that we don’t have enough shots or work the opposition goalkeeper enough, and that he is trying to encourage the players to shoot more.
