Shrewsbury not keen on banners

League Two high flyers Shrewsbury are upset banners will be delivered to Bury ahead of their potential promotion.

Town will go up from League Two if they beat the Shakers and Southend fail to win against Newport on Tuesday, but want to keep a lid on premature celebrations. The Shrews are disappointed flags for the squad to celebrate promotion will arrive at Gigg Lane before their achievement is rubber stamped. Micky Mellon's side are second and 10 points clear of Bury, who need to win to keep their automatic promotion hopes alive. Shrewsbury chief executive Matt Williams said: "We don't want parcels arriving there. I'm sure there are other ways it could have been handled for the benefit of everyone. It's the last thing we wanted and I'll be contacting the Football League to let them know. "If I were David Flitcroft (Bury boss) I would be using the fact Shrewsbury could get promotion as motivation. "We want to do things the right way and pride ourselves on being classy and doing things the right way. One thing we never do is take anything for granted. "I know how people can use it as a motivational tool against you and the last thing we want is for confidence to get knocked out of us. It's a lack of due diligence." Shrewsbury are a point off leaders Burton but Mellon also played down any celebrations ahead of the game. He said: "We have work to do. It's about being focused and we can't even think about promotion."
