Just come across old program from away trip , this century,and its a real eye opener! our squad consisted of ;howie,boxall,challis, uddin,barrett, austin, Mckeever, quinn, tait, grazioli, carlisle, warren, bryant, hogg, richards, gall, gilroy, shore, clarke, scott, arndale, and astafjevs. not a squad to inspire much enthusiasm apart from oh ah for the lat...n! but think we won 5-0, and a certain nigel jamson got a lot of stick from the travelling gas!You may have fun guessing the year and the game but more to the point think on this, of the 24 teams in our league(old div 3)ten, yes 10, are now playing non league!, 4 are in the 4th tier, 7 including us still in the 3erd tier, and 3 have gone on to better themselves But only after suffering near disaster!our league position was about the same as now, so cheer up doom merchants things could be a whole lot worse!

Without looking I’d say away to Shrewsbury, 5-2 win? 2001 or 2002 or 2003. Probably 2001.

The match at the old Shrewsbury ground when we scored 5 was a quite brilliant performance in which the Latvian proved he was a genius. 21st Sept 2002.Their MC reading out the teams not surprisingly couldn't couldn't pronounce his name.Gay Meadow all gone now and the Shrewsbury Samaritans have new premises directly opposite where it was on the English Bridge.Not relevant but just thought you ought to know!!!! Old Ground now houses overlooking the Severn which regularly flooded the old ground. Lots of Weetabix that day in evidence!!!! Great day.One of the few grounds worse than the Mem at the time but like most clubs they have a new stadium which suits their potential perfectly.Rather like Fellows Park,Walsall,when I reffed there and they told me they were having a new stadium ,I never really believed them.
