Shrewsbury have sacked manager Paul Hurst after a poor run of just 2 wins in 19 games. The decision was made after an emergency board meeting, where the club's poor performance was cited as the reason for the decision. Paul Hurst, the manager, had been re-appointed in January 2024, after taking the club to the League One play-off final in 2018 and an EFL Trophy final. However, his second spell at Shrewsbury did not fare as well, with the club managing just two league victories and losing 14 of their 19 matches in all competitions. The club have released a statement confirming the decision, with Hurst and assistant boss Chris Doig leaving their positions. Shrewsbury now face a crucial match against bottom side Burton Albion this Saturday, which could be a turning point for the club. The FA Cup defeat at Salford was the final straw, with the club managing just one win in their last 10 matches. The board's decision to sack Hurst has been brewing for some time, but the poor run of form has finally caught up with the manager. The club will now be looking for a new manager to turn their fortunes around, with the match against Burton Albion a great opportunity to get back to winning ways. And with the club struggling to fulfill their commitments, the new manager will have a tough task ahead of them. But for now, the focus is on the match against Burton Albion, and getting a much-needed win. So the club will be hoping to put their poor form behind them and get a positive result this Saturday.
