I think the challenge Clifton has in League One is having to find a way to compensate for technical shortcomings than expose him occasionally at our level, in a division where his outstanding physical attributes are that bit less outstanding.

Slightly different example, but I think there’s some similarity in how Michael Boulding’s exceptional pace in the second tier was merely slightly above average in the Prem, where he simply didn’t have the technical qualities to break through into the Aston Villa team, save for some brief appearances in the Intertoto Cup (where he did at least score a goal tbf).

The gap’s not as big for Harry, but I do think it would be a big step for him all the same. Maybe he might shine with better players around him, but if he does get a call from Shropshire, he’s got a question or two to answer about his ability to play at that level.


A smooth sea never made a skillful mariner.

I fear for Hurst and Shrewsbury -'us shape' is past it's useable life , good for NL and 1 off games but think the game has moved on , hope I'm wrong and they do well but Shrewsbury are seemingly on their arce with little resource or quality amongst a league that has plenty of both .

Genuinely hope  Hurst once again proves doubters wrong , as like many of the players gone/going over the last year or 2 he was a hero for what he achieved here .

Is Clifton technically good enough for league 1, no douabout his fitness/ engine.


If we’re going on this season he’s not good enough for league 2.  Having a great engine will only take you so far

Hurst seriously needs to improve his teams form going into next season, he finished this season with three losses and two draws in the last five games.

Neither can most of our defenders.

I wonder if any of the L1 Shrewsbury players who have been released are good enough to turn up in L2?

Would be hilarious if he put in a bid for Orisi 😂


Not quite the same, but after not playing Dean Henderson once while at Grimsby, he then signed him for Shrewsbury and played him all the time.

I expect that's where Maher will end up. Clifton would be the one from players we want to retain might end up there.

I'd be surprised if Maher went there, he wasn't a certain pick in 22/23 for example, Hurst mostly preferred smith.
