John and JB, will have to unearth another gem.

agree with that. Linfield and Boulding will never become great players for us as long as I have a hole in my ....
My opinion for what its worth is that Terry brought a lot to the team in general rather than just goals. He played a very similar game to that of Craney and/or Putterill, Ryan, Barnett, McConville and was a fulcrum to our much vaunted (and dangerous?) interpassing style that destroyed many teams last year. He was quick and strong to the ball and fast to lay it off for players moving into the gaps he had created. His scoring record wasn't fantastic but if you consider that they were all scored from open play then it wasn't bad. 13 I think, if he was a penalty taker like Donaldson or Lowe then he would have had opportunity to add another 13 goals to that tally.
I think he'll be missed and I personally think that Shrewsbury is a good club for him. He's just come from League 1 where he didn't set the world on fire and it would have been a mistake to go straight back there. But I think the League will be between Brizzle and Shrewsbury this year so he might get the opportunity in league 1 within a familiar set-up. Good luck to him. He only came to us to get back in the shop window and I think we all knew that really, and it would have been Coley's big selling point to him when he came here.
