A Shrew Appointment on 06:23 - Nov 13 with 4394 views | PlanetHonneywood | Good luck to him! Gaz wasn't the problem, it was the idiocy of appointing him that was. The outcome of which, nearly every QPR fan could have told the club in advance. | |

A Shrew Appointment on 07:57 - Nov 13 with 4175 views | stevec | The football he brought here was dire but you can’t get away from how he transformed Wycombe to become a far better side than their facilities should allow. Shrewsbury a comparable club with Wycombe so hope it goes well for him. | | | |

A Shrew Appointment on 08:47 - Nov 13 with 3971 views | E15Hoop | I think this will be a really good fit for him, and, from my experience of having spent much of my early childhood in the town, I think the Salopians will warm quickly to his positivity and openness. | | | |

A Shrew Appointment on 12:12 - Nov 13 with 3547 views | E15Hoop | You might have hit on something there...Though judging by the fact that I've often managed to do 115 mph undetected on the M54 (allegedly, your honour ) I'm not quite sure if there's enough takers looking to whistle from Shrewsbury to Telford tout de suite.. | | | |

A Shrew Appointment on 14:35 - Nov 13 with 3192 views | numptydumpty | Good luck sir. Shame this job wasn't a good fit. Surprised tbh about him getting another football job but perhaps at this level, he shines. | |

A Shrew Appointment on 14:43 - Nov 13 with 3147 views | Northernr | Yeh good luck to him. Out of his depth here, but a good guy. Would love to see him happy and successful again., It was horrible watching what our job did to him. | | | |

A Shrew Appointment on 16:57 - Nov 13 with 2807 views | Shev | Shrewsbury need to give him time. They will probably get relegated either way in a very strong L1 with a lot of "moneybags" clubs, but as a similar sized club to Wycombe, they are completely in GA's wheelhouse to rebuild from the foundations up if they stick with him for the long haul. GA's style of management did not suit QPR and the Champo, but at lower league level he is very good. | | | |
A Shrew Appointment on 17:11 - Nov 13 with 2766 views | stinkydad | Shrewsbury is just down the road from me and I've been to a few games. I think his QPR appointment was a big mistake but I wish him well and I'll go a bit more often now I think. | | | |
A Shrew Appointment on 17:37 - Nov 13 with 2682 views | HAYESBOY | Wish him all the luck in the world. He deserves success, because there is no doubting his passion. | |

A Shrew Appointment on 17:40 - Nov 13 with 2673 views | TheChef | Yeah Shrews are currently bottom. Good luck Gareth! | |

A Shrew Appointment on 17:56 - Nov 13 with 2609 views | Ned_Kennedys | Their fans seem to be very happy with the appointment: think he’ll do a great job for them. | | | |
A Shrew Appointment on 18:27 - Nov 13 with 2516 views | hubble | I wonder if they'll be known as the Blue Suede Shrews from now on. | |

A Shrew Appointment on 18:50 - Nov 13 with 2439 views | Dorse | I still love him. Snakeskin boots, drainpipe jeans, shirt unbuttoned to the waist, away at Blackpool in a sub-zero hurricane, hair blowing majestically as he air-guitars his way through 3 second half substitutions... fcking majestic! The one and only Gareth Aerosmith! | |

A Shrew Appointment on 22:12 - Nov 13 with 2120 views | DannyPaddox | Wild Thang played the Syndecombe on Shepherds Bush Green last Friday night. For a laugh I was gonna go but it clashed with Paul Weller at the Hammersmith Odeon (or whatever’s it called these days). Weller was on top form … naturally. Mate’s who went to see Gareth’s band say the guitar was great and at one point Gaz ripped his shirt off (Bucks Fizz style) to reveal his ripped tattooed torso barely covered by a white vest. He then proceeded to properly let his hair down man. Dorse would’ve ended up in a puddle of his own making. Best of luck Gaz. I’ll be checking the Shrews scores with a keen eye. Shropshire! Ger ready to Haka! | | | |
A Shrew Appointment on 22:52 - Nov 13 with 2034 views | BrianWilson | Best of luck to him. Have to be honest and say I held him in such high esteem before he became manger at QPR but now I'm not sure. I expected more honesty and less David Brent style BS from him. It was the first time in 40 or so years I actually lost interest in the club during his tenure and was waiting for him to be sacked to give us some hope. [Post edited 13 Nov 22:53]

A Shrew Appointment on 22:57 - Nov 13 with 2008 views | SydneyRs | This is good news, a decent guy and a job that on the face of it should suit him very well. Best of luck Gareth! They'll probably stay up now and beat us next season too. | | | |
A Shrew Appointment on 22:57 - Nov 13 with 2005 views | numptydumpty | I very much look forward to seeing the Maori warriors come into the Shrewsbury dressing room to get the players up for the fight. A lot of the squad he inherited here felt above this and their arrogance that they deserved a higher level of manager seemed Ainsworth was doomed here at that point. Guy I know where I live, said to me, he is such a nice bloke and he really hoped he could do well at Rangers. Am pleased for him, he has another football job. Hope it works out for him. It can't be denied that he gives everything his all. [Post edited 13 Nov 22:59]
