Shrews can defend. We can't.

After 18 games unbeaten I’m definitely not on board with this losing lark.

I will be amazed if we draw now tbf 

[Tom]

Potentially back to the 5 point gap after working so hard to get in front of them.

No chance we'd have the balls to get through the play offs 

[Gogger]

Mowbray used three subs to change absolutely nothing. 20 mins remaining and we still play 4-3-3 without any natural winger on the field. Makes no sense.

Conwy playing in front of Nyambe invites the Plymouth Full back foward thus shifts the motion from attack to defence down one side. Because we then attack down one side means we are predictable so easy to play.

This, we are top of the league when it comes to handing initiatives to the oppo when they should be looking at our starting line up and thinking hell how do we counter this.

[Miker]

Both Evans and Samuel playing well since coming on.

shrewsbury outplayed most their game yet can take the lead and hold on to it our lot cant do @#/? all  the team should walk the league that  lies with the manager

[AdamRochina]

Just designed to give people mins and not open us up those subs.

Yer it’s not happening. 

Which is why I’m not happy.

[Cherry Blue]

Very disappointed in TM. Not first time he's cocked up.

[USABlue]

The other 2 keeo winning don't they.  Real winning mentalities.

He didn’t sign any natural wingers, Chapman aside, despite having the freedom of the market by League one standards. Mowbray seems to think Samuel is the next Zambrotta.

shrewsbury  1-1

[Cherry Blue]

I don't want play-offs 

[Bigdoggsteel]

Payne should have been brough on before Samuel and Evans. Bizzare

No Payne, no gain.

Conway's off, we should win 3-2.

Give it a rest. Most of us called it before the off and were proved entirely correct. Going like for like Samuel for Graham is hardly a positive move at 2 down either and bringing off Smallwood to protect him from a yellow is tantamount to waving the right flag as far as today's game is concerned.

Mowbray has done well overall recently but that doesn't mean to say he should be exempt from criticism when he gets it wrong.

Also wish Smallwood would get a yellow then the suspension would be out of the way before we get down to the nitty gritty. This trying to nurse him through games without picking up a yellow is not helping us at all.

Ooh Arr me hearties.

[Darwen Rover 007]

Absolutely inexcusable if we haven't at least tried to win 

[alcd]

If it stays as it is - 5 points behind Shrews who show no sign whatsoever of flagging whereas Rovers always need to score at least  2 to win any match. Looks like the play-offs and I don't fancy this lot. Teams that can't defend win nothing.

[DE.]

I guess Samuel's £400k fee plus half decent wages has to be justified somehow. As for Evans, well, if there was a list of people not to bring on when you're chasing a game he'd surely be up near the top.

[islander200]

Why does he keep giving Evans minutes the guy has done nothing to warrant chance after chance 

[yellowsubmarine]

Dack trying too hard to do on his own. everytimes he goes forward down the middle, the 2 strikers go wide.

[dallydally]

Shrewsbury now drawing

[Preben]

Second best and outplayed all over the park today. Bookings from stupid, petulant tackles won't help either. Well played PAFC
