The Brewers lost 3 - 1 in their first ever League fixture against Shrewsbury Town. Burton played some good "pass & move" attacking football and were the better team for much of the game. Two howling errors by Burton keeper Shane Redmond gifted two goals to Salop and naive defending left an open goal for their third. Burton certainly deserved a point and on the showing today, not much to worry about at this stage. 1,043 away fans in a 6000+ crowd is not a bad following either.
Pre-match entertainment was to be found at "
The Salopian", an excellent little pub next to the River in the centre of town and a short walk from the bus station where we caught the bus to the "Prostar Stadium", parking near the ground being something of a nightmare apparently.
