I am here at Shrewsbury Town's Sundawn Castle training base. You can see the training ground
00:08
in the background. We have spoken to the Shrewsbury Town head coach, Gareth Ainsworth, ahead of
00:12
the trip to Charlton this weekend. It was a very long interview, 17 minutes on the record
00:18
with the BBC and then followed up with a few questions from myself. Plenty of newsworthy
00:24
stuff to get into. So much has happened at Shrewsbury Town over the last week or so.
00:28
We've had the club captain leaving, we've had incomings, we've had outgoings. So there's
00:32
so much stuff to cover. Probably the main newsworthy lines to come out of the press
00:36
conference though would suggest that Aaron Pierre's injury, the hamstring strain that
00:40
he picked up last week or tweak that he picked up last week in the cross-border derby against
00:45
Wrexham is not as severe as first thought. It's touch and go potentially whether he's
00:50
going to be fit for the weekend or not, but it's not as bad as Shrewsbury first thought.
00:56
Other things to come out of the press conference is that it looks very likely that the remaining
01:00
three loanees, obviously Shrewsbury, 50% of the loanees, Tommy O'Reilly, Charles Sago
01:06
Jr and Josh Coyote have returned to their parent clubs or obviously gone back out on
01:10
loan. It looks as though the three remaining ones in Josh Feeney, Leo Castledine, which
01:14
the Shropshire Star reported earlier this week, and Afonso Ojo are actually going to
01:20
remain in Shropshire for the remainder of the season. Well, as Gareth said, he wants
01:24
them and if it's got anything to do with him, then they will stay in Shropshire for the
01:27
remainder of the season. Some nice words from Ainsworth on Captain Carl Winchester, who
01:33
earlier this week departed going back to his native Northern Ireland to sign for Derry
01:39
FC as he wants to be closer to his family. So, yes, of course, there were some really
01:46
nice things on there and also some good lines on the new arrivals, Riccardo Di Nanga, Callum
01:54
Stewart and Dom Gape. He expects Di Nanga and Callum Stewart to be more development
02:01
players, whereas Dom Gape comes in and describes him as a real leader and perhaps that replacement
02:05
in the middle of the park for Carl Winchester, who has obviously departed. A player that
02:08
Gareth has worked with on several occasions, well, not several occasions, for many years
02:13
at Wickham Wanderers and a player that comes in with some League One experience. More stories
02:17
to come from me in terms of what Shrewsbury's squad depth is going to look like for the
02:22
remainder of the window. As Gareth does say, he wants a couple more players through the
02:25
door between now and February the 3rd and also what sort of player it is that he wants
02:31
to come through. You've got to keep your eyes peeled. To the Shropshirestar.com. For all
02:35
those Shrewsbury fans travelling down to London this weekend, have a safe journey to the capital
02:39
and I will see you there.
