It started off looking like Shrewsbury would ride on their last game's victory in this tournament game. In the first half, Shrewsbury scored the only goal and led at half time 1-0. However, 2 second half goals by Yeovil Town proved to be too much for the squad as Shrewsbury was elimanted by the final score of 2-1. "I feel like the guys played well, just not well enough. We need to keep moving forward and look towards our next couple of League games." Pearson continues to remain optimistic but how long will that last. Also, in other news, Shrewsbury confirm their acquisition of Alex Terra.
Shrewsbury gets another thrilling victory, this time taking out Gillingham with a final score of 3-1. With the win, Shrewsbury improves to 3-0-2 and moves up to 6th place. It looked like Guarna might finally get his first clean sheet of the year, but it was not to be as a turnover in the box proved costly as Gillingham tied it up 1-1 early in the second half. However, young striker James Collins proved his worth by scoring 2 goals in the second half as Shrewsbury won 3-1. "Everyone really played well today, James especially. He came through when we needed him and deservedly got the game ball today. I hope we can keep this winning form up in the future." That is what Pearson said after the game. Up next is Crawley.
