Not complicated...Chelsea had bid £50m for Fernando Torres (with hindsight, a good deal only for Liverpool) so LFC had a large pile of dosh, and the need for a star striker. Carroll looked like a good bet, but Damien Comolli (soon to be ex-director of football) let Newcastle shaft him and the club on the price. That, and Luis Suarez was bought at the same time (and worked out rather better)....

Home against Derby or Southampton in the 4th round. Luck is on our side again,as it's our 4th home tie in this season's FA Cup.

Today was written in the stars.
Boyhood Shrewsbury fan, local lad and former player, Dave Edwards, returns to the club, 11 years after leaving for a great career at Wolves (via a short spell at Luton) and many Welsh international caps.
We then draw the very same Wolves, out of the hat, in the next round of the FA Cup, if we could sneak past Stoke in the replay.
Our manager, Sam Ricketts, also spent many years at Wolves.

Even if we go out in the next round,we'll have had a very good run in this year's competition. Our manager said the club's aim was to get as far as possible,making as much money as we can from gate receipts and winning bonuses which will help the club not necessarily buy better players,but provide more money to pay in wages which will keep our better players at the club. The last time Stanley had a run like this in the cup the money gained meant the club could afford to go full time,which led to our return to the Football League.
