Simpson's Thoughts on Tonights A49 Battle

Shrewsbury Town travel down the A49 later this afternoon for their game against Hereford United and manager Paul Simpson have given his pre-match thoughts to the Shrewsbury Official Website.

"It's a local derby, and they have been picking up a few results of late, but had the disappointment on Saturday," said Simpson.

"We know it's going to be a tough game, I look at the side and I see that they have some good individual players. Really what we have got to do is go there and be positive, make sure we maintain this little run in the league we have got, and just keep trying to build. We've got nothing else to think about this season apart from progressing in the league and getting ourselves up there. That's because of our own wrongdoings, our bad play in certain games.

"Now we are in a situation where there is just the league to concentrate on, but I don't think that is a bad situation. We've got a lot of games to play; we all knew at the start of the season what our priority was. That is still the same, we want to be out of this division, we want to be pushing.

"If we can go to Hereford and be positive and be strong and try to do everything we can do to get back to keeping clean sheets, I am quite sure that we can cause problems for them at the other end for them."
